Producers Lose First Tilt
With RailrOaderS, 13 to 6
Unfavorable Decision in Third
Turning Point of Slugfest; !;
Miner-Booster Game Rained
Out; Twins Beaten.

One more Tulsa pitcher has been
weighed in the balance and found
wanting and another game has been
lost to the Producers because of the
inferiority of the hurler on the hill
top. Battered for nine hits and nine
runs in the first four innings of yes
terday's opener with the champions.
1rion, who only recently Joined the
Producers, was permitted to stay thru
out the bombardment and when final
ly, after more than two hours of ag-
ony the game had been finished, he
Tulsa had gone down in defeat, 13 to 6.
Game Blows.in Third.
Had Cyrus, king of the Producers,
injected a little of his shine ball fling
ing into the fray along in the early
innings, the outcome might have been
different. but along about the time he
should have been limbering up his
managerial duties distracted his atten-
ton to a decision of the umpire which
marked the turning point of the game.
Before Cy could come back to earth
after quite temperamental blow up
the game had been practically cinched.
One had been retired, the score was
2 to / in favor of the locals and Mer-
ritt had just singled when the disputed
play came up. McMahan bowled q
grounder down toward third base,
which Ohlin played quickly for a long
chance out. He might have been run
n'ug (some say two and others four
feeD inside the chalk line, collided
with Stewart, causing him to drop the
ball. When the umpire refused to de-
clare the runner out under section 6
of rule So, Young registered vigorous
protest. Declaring that the rules per-
mitted the runner three feet on either
side of the chalk line. Umpire Jeffries
oVerruled Young's protest, and when
the Producer manager continued to ex-
postulate, slapped on fine of IS and
later raised 1t to $40.
After that things happened thick
and fast, four runs being scored be-
fore the side was retired. Four more
came in the next inning, two in the
seventh and two In the ninth, the last
pair being the result of Storey's home
run following Campbelrs single.
Locals Lose Heart.
The locals showed little heart In
their attack after the third round.
Once, in the sixth, pair, of two-base
hits, one by Ohlin and one by Stew
art, put little pepper into their Of
fensve, but after two tallies had been
run in Kinney was substituted for
Sparks and thereafter only one hit
was registered.
