SIX IEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURS. OREGON FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 1948 4 , t ' I I ( e I o f a'. H K H V n e: st d. er Jl le cr Chiefs Defeat Reedsport By Score of 3-2 Virgil Sanders' Eighth Inning Base Running Is Game's Deciding Factor By WARREN MACK Virg Sanders' one-man base running act in the last of the eighth Inning gave the Umpqua Chiefs a well-earned 3-2 win over the visiting Reedsport nine on Finlay Field last night. With the score tied at two-all, Sanders singled and stole second. Then with two away, Virg went into his act, daring the pltchpr to catch him oft second. Not only was the pitcher rattled, the sec ond and third basemen also aided the Roseburg cause by muffing throws to their respective bases, allowing Sanders to race home from third with the winning run. Roseburg took the lead in the last of the third inning to chase across two big runs. Lovell Baker led off with a single through the pitcher's mound, then raced to third on the first of two errors by the Reedsport second baseman, attempting a fielder's choice han dling of Virg Sanders' ground ball. Clyde DeWitt, Reedsport pitcher, committed his second error to allow Baker to score, put another runner on base, and advanced Sanders to third. Bill Schemer's free ride on a walk filled the bases and the stage was set for the first triple steal of the season. And again it was Virg Sanders who crossed the plate. He gauged DoWltt'a fiitch to perfection and was slid ng into home when the ball crossed the plate as the other two runners pulled up at second and third.

Eighth Inning Decision Roseburg Pitcher Bruce Hamil ton held the vaunted heavy bats of the visitors completely muf fled until the top of the eighth. Reedsport's first hit of the game was immediately followed up by Jennings' one-run triple. A passed ball allowed Jennings to score and tie up the game. Then the Chiefs came to bat and Virg Sanders gave his master ful exhibition of base-running to race In with what proved to be the winning run. Reedsport re taliated in their half of the ninth to place runners on first and third but Burt, the last batter grounded out to the first baseman for the final put out of the game. Until the fatal eighth inning, the game had all the earmarks of a tight pitchers' duel. Strike outs accounted for nearly half of Reedsport's first 24 putouts as DeWitt whiffed ten opposing hat ters. And before Reedsport came to bat in the top of the eighth, Roseburg's Bruce Hamilton pitch ed no-hit, no-run ball. Both hurl ers gave up only two bases on balls. .

Many fishermen bring their boats with them, and the large number of boats moored to the county dock In Winchester Bay makes landing there a difficult matter. Most of the commercial troll ing fleet Is working out of Flor ence at present. O. H. Hinsdale, owner of the deep-sea cruiser Judy, accompanied by Nelson Ho gan and Walter Anderson, caught a nice bunch of both Chinook and sllversides Tuesday. Among them were one 55-pound chlnook and one 45-pounder. Sev eral halibut have been caught by sportsmen, also. Andrew Tonpl, owner of the tuna clipper, Lynn, arrived here Tuesday with a medium sized catch from the tuna-fishing grounds off Newport. He said he ran out of the fish as he came farther south. Falcons strike their prey with closed talons, catching the dead or stunned victim in air as It plummets earthwards.
