DUCKS AND OAKS WIN WITH SEALS ON THE TOBOGGAN
2 TO I JINX 18 ON
lOHLEHTE CREW
Seals Dreg Agony Over 12 In
nings, but Ifs No Use;
They Can't Win
WILLIAM J. SLATTERY
r 1 1HERE is no question now in the
» minds of any of the fans that the
2 to 1 jinx is on Jhe Seals.
They took another knockout wallop
from the Oaks on the Valencia street
lot yesterday afternoon and the finish
was the same as it had been for the
la?t three days. The only difference
was that it required three additional
rounds to decide the supremacy be
tween the teams. Oakland deserved
to win because it displayed the real
game spirit all the time and came
from behind. San Francisco made
hits enough to win three games, but
hits don't \u25a0 count when they fail to
produce runs.
None of ihe fans could have wished
for a more exciting; or a more nerve
racking game of baseball. The tossers
were on their toes every minute of the
time. and they just battled and tugged
and fought round after round as
though the championship of the world
depended on that one particular game.
The errors were few and far between,
and they were so badly smothered by
the brilliant plays that the fans soon
lost track of them.
Willie Hogan is the man who bears
the honor of registering the final tally
for the Commuters. Leading off in
the twelfth, he dispatched a well
placed single into the right garden.
Cutshaw tried to put one through the
infield, but Shaw gathered" the ball in
and fielded Cutty out at first base. Ho
sran made second on this play and ad-
Vanced to third when Eddie Swander
planted a grood one into center.
TOO BAD BAL.L DROPPED
Tl-oivas came up and deliberately
laid down a bunt. The ball was trav
eling rather slowly: but. at that. Sutor
picked it up and, without even looking
at the plate, heaved the sphere. Wil
liams was waiting to grab it off as
Hogan slid^in feet first. Umpire Mc-
Greevy was right there, so that there
could be no mistake about it.
Williams caught the ball, slapped at
on Hogan and McGreevy raised his
hand as a signal that the runner was
out. But before his motion was half
completed. McGreevy lowered his hand
and yelled "Safel" for Williams had
dropped the ball. It was an unfortu
nate error, for it lost the game for
San Francisco. Still Hogan deserves
all manner of credit . for his clever
This, in brief, is the story of how the
Seals dropped back another game in
the greatest pennant race that the Pa
cific Coast league has ever known. Al
though they hit the ball safely 15 times
to six for their transbay opponents, still
they could make only one of these
15 count
Some of the fans believe that San
Francisco should have won the game
:n the ninth, but. of course, this does
not go for much, especially as the um
pire was right on top of the play and
should have been in the best position
to judge it. 'Twas on this occasion
that Harry Sutor was caught at the
pan after making a great run in from
second base.
FIMSHES LIKE SPRINTER
Sutor planted a pretty bingle over
the third bag and advanced to second
on Lewis* out. Shaw came up and
f :r.ashed one away out to the right field
fence. On came Sutor from second and
the fans were so certain that he would
beat the throwin that they were get
ting ready to leave the grounds.
Sutor tore for the. plate on a dead
run, but instead of sliding in like a
wise ball player, he finished straight
up. Just like a 100 yard sprinter. Swan
der made a great peg in from, the right
garden and Mitze got the ball just as
Sutor approached the plate. McGreevy
was right there and could not possibly
have made a mistake. He called Sutor
out and he was right. The Seal pitcher
.could have won his own game there by
fliding.
. For the first three rounds the Com
muters could not get close to any of
the offerings of the Seal southpaw. He
was in splendid form, being there with
wonderful speed and curves that broke
to his liking. But the transbay slug
"g^rs took his number in the fourth and
by bunching three hits they cleverly
eased a run across and stepped into
the lead.
This they held for just an inning.
The Seals came back in the fifth with
the one that caused the extra innings.
-Bodie lifted a fast one into center and
.>oung. Thomas, who is not familiar
\u25a0with the outfield, failed to play the
ball properly. It got by him and rolled
to the clubhouse for three sacks. A
moment later Tommy • Tennant regis
tered Bodie with a single.
MAGGARTS DARING ATTE.MPT
Maggart made a daring attempt to
break up the game for the Oaks in
the eleventh. With two down, he sin
pled to deep left field and made a great
f-leal of • second. On the next ball
pitched 'he pilfered third, beating Wil
liams* peg to the bag by a foot. Any
kind of a hit would have meant a vic
j-tory then and there, but the best Pfyl
had was an infield fly.
Sutor fanned 13 of the Oaks, 10 of
them being winged to the bench In the
first nine innings of action. But strike
out pitchers do not always win their
games and this was evidenced very
clearly yesterday. However. Sutor was
not so much to blame, for that unfor
tunate error which Williams committed
on ihe final play proved his undoing.

This remarkable snapshot photograph was tal^en just as Maggart, the speedy Oakland left fielder, slid hi.t o)
third base in the eleventh inning, a few moments after he had made a successful steal of second. The camera caught
Maggart diving right under the ball, which Williams pegged to Vitt a fraction of a second too late to nail the daring'
base runner. Vitt, in his anxiety to tag the runner, dropped the ball- just as Maggart reached the bag, though the
chances are Maggart would have got away with his bold trick even had the Seal third baseman held on to the sphere.
This Was but one of the several clever steals which the Oaklanders got away with. A few innings before, Pfyl and
Hogan pulled off a speedy double steal. Pfyl slid feet first into the third sack and injured his ankle. It looked for
a time as though the speedy first sackcr would be forced to quit the game,'but he rounded to and went back to his
post. . Strangely enough, both Maggart and Pfyl were left at thiri base after their strenuous efforts.

Oakland at San Francisco. -Vernon at Portland.

'Twas the same old story over
again yesterday afternoon — another
victory each for Portland and Oak
land and another plunge down -the
line for San Francisco. Now the
Seals seem to be out of it for keeps
in this series, at least, unless per.
chance they can take the. Oaks
down the line in today's game and
in both games tomorrow, which
does not seem at all likely.
This- series between the Oaks
and the Seals is, perhaps, the hard

has been won by the same score^ —
2 bonrs and 35 minutes. Umpires— McGreevy

2 to I—and1 — and Oakland has cantered
away with three of them in a row,
all of which goes to show that the
Oaks are deserving of their suc
cess, for no team wins three
straight on luck alone.
It did look at first as though the
Villagers might possibly give the
Beavers a tough argument of it in
the north this week, but evidently
the Portland pitchers are all work
ing in their best form. The third
shutout which they registered
against Happy Hogan's bunch yes

proof of this.

[Special Dispatch to The Call]
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 23.— The Sen
ators held, another slugfest today and
defeated the Angels -7 to 2. Southpaw
Castleton. was hit for an even dozen
safeties, while his team mates were
piling up flye errors. Byram. the col
l«gian, was on." the \ mound , for Sacra
mento, and five bingles were the extent
of his generosity. - y.
The Senators' luck went' by threes.
Three hits and three errors netted
three runs in the second inning. Dan
zig, Boardman and Burns scoring.
Three more hits in the fifth brought
three runs to Graham's men. V Their
seventh and last run came in the sixth,
when La.Longe singled, stole second
and scored after Van Buren singled to
right, Orendorff dropping the throw at
the plate. ;
The Angels t put one over in the fifth.
Castleton getting around on an error,
a single and two outs. They tried hard
in the seventh when Orendorff was
safe ,on Burns' error and went to third
on Castleton's out. Daley singled in
field and Nast did likewise, scoring
Orendorff. ' \u25a0 . . : . .
Howard could do nothing, and
Wheeler was sent in to bat for Dillon,
but he fanned. Nast,, a former high

HOGAN EJECTED, BUT
DEMANDS AN ESCORT
[Specie/ Dispatch to The Ca//]
PORTLAND, Ore. , Sept. 23. — Happicus Hogan, manager of
the Vernon team, became so tempestuous in his denunciation of Umpire
Finney, following the close decision at the home plate in the eighth inning
today, that Finney ordered him ejected from the grounds, f 'y±
Additional amusement TV as furnished the fans by the incident for
the reason that Hogan insisted that he' "would be .escorted out only by a
policeman, and there -was delay in locating an officer of the law to of
ficiate. \u25a0
a \u25a0} ;. Catcher Brown . was fined $1 0 for disputing the decision. Olson
came home on Casey's pinch hit, Brashear pegging the ball to Brown,
who slapped Olson with it a trifle too late. Finney called the runner
safe, while the visitors insisted that Olson was but by a mile. While the
dispute was in progress no one noticed J. Krueger, and he stole home.'
The two runs were all Portland got and gave the locals the game.

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 23.— For the
third time this week Portland shut
Verhon out today . by a 2 to 0 score.
The contest was a' neck ' and neck race
up to the eighth inning, neither side
being 'able to « get a man across the
plate. In this inning, Olson, who had
reached second, came home on an in
field hit by Casey. The decision" on
Olson was very close, and while Man
ager Hogan jwas arguing with Umpire
Finney, surrounded by a large audience
•of 1 players, Casey stole second, and
