oBy THE AssoclA41o PRESS,


 The Coast League standings were congested at both ends today.
 The Los Angeles Angels pulled in- to virtual first place tie with San Francisco by defeating San Diego 50.
 The Padres defeat, coupled with Hollywcods 7-6 victory over Se- attle, caused a three-way jam in the basement involving these same blubs.
 The Angels made it three out of four over the Padres as Bill Elem ing and Jess Dobernic combined to spin a three-hit shutout. Fleming allowed only two bingles-one a scratch-before being replaced in the eighth inning after loading the bases on two walks and a safety.
 Dobernic put out the fire and gave up only one more blow to save the game. .
 Los Angeles nicked Nanny Salvo for the loss, with the big hurler being ejected by umpire Lon War neke in the ninth following a pro- test of called balk. George Caster finished.
 The win left the Angels two per centage points behind San Fran cisco, rained out of it's game with Sacramento. Oakland at Portland also was postponed because ot rain.
 Hollywood jumped from last to sixth by edging Seattle for the third time in four games. Eddie Al bosta, pitching hls first game for the Stars, was credited with the win, although needing help from Paul Gregory when the Sids ral- lied for three runs in the eighth.
 The Stars wound up with a two point edge over San Diego, which in turn led Seattle by the same margin.
