Dugdale and his following of Seattle
ball-tossers opened their first series here
yesterday with a forenoon and an after
noon same, and secured a good start,
winning both games. The flrst was a
shut-out, score 3 to 0. due to the Inability
of Portland to hit. The second was won
by a score of 4 to 2, the principal cause
being some loose fielding by one Mr. Dan
iel Hupp. In Portland's right garden.
The baseball boys stole a march on the
weather yesterday and played In spite of
the frequent showers and muddy field.
Throughout the earlier part of the morn
ing the rain descended and the floods
came until Manager VIgneux had about
decided to send for the Noah's Ark re
cently discovered in Alaska to use as a
covered baseball diamond. But about 9:30
the rain showed signs of letting up, and
the boys started for the park, followed
by about 400 of the faithful guard.
The field was muddy and slippery, but
the teams put up a fairly fast game, con
sidering the condition of the grounds.
The rain held off until the sixth inning,
when a heavy mist started to fall. This
kept increasing, until in the middle of the
first half of the eighth Umpire Smith
found it necessary to call the game. Sam
uel VIgneux protested, and was fined a
five-spot. Smith said he called him an
"old stiff" and grabbed his arm. After
a wait of 15 minutes, the playing was re
sumed, but Portland could do no better
than it did before.
Several heavy showers came during the
time between the flrst game and 3 o'clock,
ana again it joojcea as u there would oe
no same. As before, the weather settled
somewhat, and the team3 prepared for
the second game. A light rain fell dur
ing the warming-up time and the first
inning, but the game was finished with
out any interruption from the elements.
While the wet and slippery condition of
the grounds would permit of no wonder
fully fast playing by the members of the
teams, the games were not without their
features. Sensational fieldinswas the or-,
der of the day.
Harris, the new man signed by the
Portland management just before the de
parture of the team on the last trip, made
his flrst appearance in Portland with the
Webfooters. He held down the third bag,
and did- it in a manner that won him
many plaudits. The way in which he got
after the liners that came In his direction
and got under the foul files caused many
a fan to ask what he would do when he
was on a dry field.
Sammy VIgneux did his usual good
backstop work, and gathered in a num
ber of difficult foul flies. Stanley, the
catcher on the Seattle team, proved him
self to be a second VIgneux. He backs
up his pitchers in great style, and goes
after the fouls in a manner that shows
he understands his business.
For wet weather pitching the work yes
terday was excellent. All four of the
twirlers showed up in good form. Hogg
In the box for Seattle in the morning
game was wild during the flrst four in
nlngs, but, after that, he settled down
and pitched championship ball. In the
first he hit a couple of men, and during
the game gave four passes to first Hupp
made a hit in the fourth, the only one off
his delivery.
Salisbury was not as steady as usual.
He was touched up for 12 hits in the first
game, for a total of 16 bases. The sup
port hehlnd him kept the score down.
Storall worked from the slab for Be
attle in the afternoon, and while he was
touched up for 14 hits, he kept them well
scattered, and they did but little dam
age. He was very effective with men on
bases.
Engle did the twirling for Portland in
the second game, and if he had had the
proper support behind him, the locals
would have pulled out the victory.
The other players all did good -work
and played flrst-class wet-day ball. The
outfleldlng was exceptionally strong, ex
cept in Portland's right field, during the
Eecond game.
Bnd FleldlnK by Hupp.
Hupp was the only one of the 20 play
ers who participated in yesterday's games
that was off color, and he was very bad.
He is a weak man In the fleld, and seems
to be unable to judge flies or handle
grounders. Yesterday was not the only
day that he has demonstrated this, but It
was yesterday that he came out the plain
est. Even when he did get under a balK
he was unable to hold on to It. while the
two other Portland fielders and the three
Seattle men got everything- possible.
Then, again. Hupp's work at the bat is
not' up to the standard. He seems to use
no judgment In batting. AH he wants is
to make long hits and home-runs, and
these cannot be made all the time, even
by the best of men. Hupp swings on
everything. Time after time in yester
day's games he would strike at balls that
did not come within two feet of the plate.
To be sure. Hupp got the only hit in the
first game, and a two-bagger In the sec
ond. But were they the result of science
or luck? If Mr. Hupp would but take
the advice of his manager, and do a little
batting practice, and hit as he is told to
bj--colleagues, then there might be an
Increase in his batting average.
Umpire Smith Is Fair.
Something seems to be the matter with
the Portland crowd. Yesterday morning
they did nothing but howl at the work of
"umpire Smith. "While it is, of course,
not up to that of Cunningham, It was an
improvement over Mullane's. Mr. Smith
umpired two good games yesterday
When It came to close decisions, of which
there were a number, Portland faired far
better than Seattle. But still the crowd
howled. The trouble is they have got in'
the habit of kicking and are having a
hard time getting out Mr. Smith is um
piring In this league purely as a matter
of accommodation, and this fact should
be appreciated. He has a business In
Butte, but ho has agreed to help the
league out until they can get a good um
pire. Mr. Sir'th did all right yesterday,
and it-is to be hoped that he will always
be as good. At any rate, the crowd
should refrain from kicking until it has
something to kick about
Seattle started in laying. In Its stock-of
runs In the first inning of the morning
game. With two men out, Schwartz and
Hurlburt each lined out hits and got "on
the bags. "Dutch" Klopf followed by
putting the ball past Harris Into Muller"s
territory and Schwartz scored. A pass
issued by Salisbury to Hurley, with a
sacrifice hit and error by Mailer la hand
ling a hit by Schwartz, was responsible
for another run for Seattle In the fifth.
In the sixth Dalrymple reached first on a
fielder's choice, and scored on Campbell's
two-bagger. That ended the scoring of
the game, although It looked as If Seat
tle might add to its total In the ninth,
when two hits put two men on the bags
with no one out; but a sacrifice and two
foul flies retired the side.
It looked as If Portland would also score
in the first Muller was hit and went to
second on a sacrifice. Anderson hit to
Klopf and caught Muller between second
and third and ended that chance of scor
ing. Weed was also hit rind an error by
Babbitt In handling VIgneux's hit filled
the bags, with two men out Harris was
not equal to the occasion, however, and
sent up a pretty foul, which came down
In Stanley's hands. After that Portland's
chances of scoring were very slim. The

The Second Game.
Engle opened the second game in great
style, making both Hurley and Babbitt
succumb to his curves, amid the shouts of
nea'rly all of the 2600 spectators present
and the firing off of firecrackers and pis
tols. In Portland's half a Fourth of July cel
ebration started that looked as If the
locals had things their own way. Muller
made a short hit which set the crowd to
shouting. Van Buren received the ball
In his anatomy and walked to first An
derson followed with a sacrifice. Wood
came in for a hit out toward Mr. Klopf
on third, and Muller raced across the
plate. Portland was at least safe from
a shut-out VIgneux sent the ball to
Stovall, who Juggled It, and allowed Van
Buren to score.
In the second Engle put the ball out of
the reach of Dalrymple for two bases,
and Muller's hit put him on third, but
that was all the farther he could get
Again in the fourth Portland had a ghost
of a show of scoring. Two hits and a
pass put three men on the bases, after
two .men had been retired; but VIgneux
forced Weed out at second and ended that
chance.
In the fifth the tables were turned.
Dalrymple hit to centerfleld. Campbell
and Stovall followed with short infield
hits and filled the bags, with nobody out
Hurley put a fly. out - Jo Hupp, jvh'o
dropped It and Allowed Dalrymple and
Campbell to come in and tie the score.
Babbitt hit to Engle, who" got the ball to
the plate too late to keep Stovall from
scoring and giving Seattle the lead that
was never lost Babbitt was caught try
ing to score when Anderson and Weed
had Hurlburt cornered between first and
second. Anderson suddenly gave up the
play on Hurlburt and shot the ball to
the plate Just in time to get Babbitt and
retire the side.
In the seventh Stovall got to flrst on a
second error by Hupp, and scored when
Engle lost his equilibrium In handling a
ball from Schwartz's bat Engle threw to
VIgneux while he was lying on the
ground, but it was too late to catch Sto
vall. Portland's only chances to win out
came in the eighth and ninth. In the
eighth, with two out two hits, a fielder's
choice, and an error, put three men on the
bases. Vigneux was unable to turn the
trick, but landed the ball into Stovall's
hands and was retired at flrst In the
ninth Deisel and Engle tried hard to bat
out a victory and got hits, but there were
two men out and Muller died at (first
