A Game of The
League Leaders
My the Associated Press
Baseball Inns were today looking
for a break In tho Pacific coast lea
gue to determine whether the Holly
wood Stars, leaders, will maintain
their top position. With Los An
geles trailing one game behind the
Stars, the Angels were within easy
shooting distance of tying the lead
ers, while Sun Francisco, by winning
the remainder of its games, could, If
the two top teams lose a couple, land
near the top.
Frank Shellenbach, Hollywood
veteran fipltballcr, stepped forth In
the pinches last night, and held
Oakland to three runs, while his
team mates overwhelmed the Oaks
in to 3. Although the Oaks had the
bases full in throo Innings, they
were unable to connect for counts.
Seattle and Can l-ranclsco made
eleven hits yesterday, but the Seals
took the ball game, 0 to 4. Jimmy
Zlnn chalked up his twentieth vic
tory of this game.
The Sacramento Senators defeat
ed the San Francisco Missions, 3 to
1 last night, thereby tying the
Reds and the Ouks for fourtn place
In the league. The Solons have won
throe of the four games played with
the Missions.
Loh Angeles defeated Portland, 7
