Salt Lake made it four straight over Portland this afternoon. 4 to 3. Earl Sheely hooked a terrific grass cutter from the bat of Tex Wisterzil for the third out in the ninth inning, just at the instant when tying and winning Beavers were crossing the plate and rounding third base. Krug's muff of a pop fly set the stage for the Beaver rally in the ninth, and they were not slow to take ad vantage of it. In fact, they put two runs across and were rigrht in line for a victory when Sheely cut them down. Al Gould pitched a fine game of ball, holding the Beavers to one run, except the pair they made in the ninth. On pitching, he was entitled to a shutout. Jones In Good Form. Carroll Jones had the Bee sluggers at his mercy except in the fifth, when they got away with three scratch hits And a real one. Jones was struck on the shinbone in the sixth by a liner from Spencer and Sutherland finished out. Art Koehler spiked Butch Byler In a slide to the plate in the second and Butch had to quit. Tho Beavers scored one in the first. Blue walked and "Wisterzil hit. A passed ball moved them along and Blue scored on an out. The Bees made three in the fifth. With one out, Gould, Maggert, Krug and Mulvey hit in succession. Jones Support Poor. Better support would have turned at leaBt two of the hits into outs. The locals got one more off Sutherland in the eighth on Sheely's double. Johnson's safe bunt and an out. There were two out in the ninth when the Beavers began to make a noise. Rader singled to right and Cox walked. Krug dropped Baker's pop fly. Baker batting for Sutherland, and Rader scoring. Blue doubled to left, scoring Cox. It was then that Sheely made his great spear of Wisterzil's grounder. A few inches stood in the way of its being a two-bagger. The score: Portland I Salt Lak the series from Los Angeles. Fittery was replaced in the eighth by Pertica in an effort to stop the Tigers, but the game was already won and the change brought no results. Belligerency fea tured the attitude of players on both teams. Fournier was ordered out of the game in the eighth when he threw a drinking1 cup at Umpire Bedford, who declared him out on a close decision at first. Score: Vernon I Los An-eles BRHOAi BRHOA J.
