The eight clubs of the class AA
circuit, first in tlie country to open,
paired off In 'four California cities as
has 'been the custom for many years.
Opening series brought together
Portland at Los Angeles; Seattle at
San Francisco: Hollywood at Oakland
and the Missions at Sacramento.
Every team presented, new player
faces, some In wholesale numbers.
Los Angeles, 1933 pennant winner,
was picked by many as the team to
beat for the championship again this
year. Hoi lywood , San Franc lscos
Seals and the Son Francisco Missions,
were backed by many experts.
Portland, runner-up last year, found
less favor at tho start of this season
because of the sole of many players
who were mainstays In 1933. Sacra
mento, Seattle and Oakland, like
wise opened the pennanti drive with
teams of questionable strength.
