PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 14. Six- ly-scvon consecutive innings without liming been scored against, nnd tho end is not yet. This was the record set by the Portland team of the Pacific coast league. Portland's baseball popula tion, en muFpe, this afternoon filed into the ball park to sec how much further the team can go against the Los Angeles- team. The fans aro confident that at least three more Innings can be played without a score against the Beavers. This would place tho record at 70, or eight better than the existing world's record of 62, made by Plttaburg, In 1907. Should Los Angeles score In the first inning, the fans believe that the record already set will Btand for a long time. Tho last seven games have been shutouts for Portland. In the game of OctoLer fithc last In. 'which. a.run was scored, Sacramento put ono over Jn the fifth Inning, tho only fun: for them during the game. Pltchere Greeg, Steen and Krapp have been largely responsible for tho Beavers' wonderful showing, but the team as a whole has been playing almost er rorless ball. STARTS ALONE ON A.
