The people who looked at the display sat and shivered, for the seats In the grandstand were cold, and most of the spectators had expected that it would be hot, and had worn their Ice cream suits. Toward the latter end of the game the gentle rain from heaven began to descend, and made life miserable for the players, too. The only reason on earth that tho Tigers pulled off the victory was that big Rock enfleld knocked a home run hit over the right fence In the sixth, when there were two men on bases, and thus secured a good lead that the Portland players could not overcome. They managed several times to tie the score, but could not get the necessary one tally when it was most needed. The game looked good to the Portlands up to the fifth, for they were playing on the aggressive, and had a chance to win. In that Inning, however, things- began to happen. Andrews hit a liner, and George Engle, the slab artist for the home bunch, was so surprised that the Tacoma manager should soak one of his beauties In such a manner that he promptly sat on the ground, and watched it go over his head, making the air red hot as It went Jake Delsel got In Its way, but it passed right along, and Jake got a little mark In the column headed "E." In the mean time Andrews waddled down to first Jde McCarthy stepped up to meet Engle's twirls, but the pitcher was not yet over the surprise, and he gave the batter a pass; sending Andrews along to second. Swindles bunted, and again everybody moved along the line. Nobody was out yet and Andrews had a big juicy vision of about four runs, but Zalusky wentout on a fly to Muller. Andrews got ready when the fly neared Maxle's mlts, and came home the instant It landed, making the first score for his side. It was up to the locals, and they were there with the goods. Murdock got transportation to bag number one, and Jake bunted a mo ment later, getting first himself, and send ing Murdock " on to second. Zalusky thought that he would do something fine, and tried to catch the man at second. but he overthrew, and two men took bases. Engle hit, Joe McCarthy at short made a bad error, the two runners, Mur dock and Delsel, scored, and the batter went to second. Muller flew out, but Van Buren got first on balls, and Engle sneaked along to third. Weed went out at first, and gave Engle a chance to score. Anderson, with a nice eye, picked out a ball to his liking, and hit it for two bags, scoring Van Buren, and making the tames 4 to 1. Tacoma looked blue when she went In In the sixth, but both Letcher and Nagel hit, and the blue tone faded out Rock- enfield stepped to the bat, and after a little preparatory swinging, lifted the ball over the right fence between the maple syrup and canned-corn signs. Murdock climbed the new flag pole in his garden and tried to mark the ball's trail, while the three runners walked around, and Andrews smiled. In the last half of the seventh Muller worked his way around the stations and scored with the aid of Andy's grounder through short Tacoma made one in the eighth, tying the score, and the tallies remained 5 all through the ninth. Tacoma had no difficulty in making two in the first half of the tenth. Weed stepped in for Portland and made a beau tiful hit, but Anderson nnd Stovall went out the first thing, and the Portland players started for the dressing-house. andEngle got his jacket off. Sammy hit such a nice one to the back- fence that he made second while it was coming back, and Weed went on to third. Murdock hit a high two-bagger, and the two runners scored, Murdock went out at third a few seconds later, and the score stood a tie again. The players came back from the dressing-room. Both teams worked hard In the Hth, but nobody could get to third, but when Ta coma went In In the 12th, she went In for business. Two men went out the first thing, and then the manager, An drews, hit for two bags. Joe McCarthy's hit scored him, and the multitude that stayed out the game groaned, and tho telephone bell jangled out of tune as some fan from the city called up and wanted to know how the score stood. There was still a chance for Sammy's bunch to do something, and they tried to do It all right Weed opened up the inning, and went out at first Anderson knocked a grounder, and thought that he was out sure, but the butter-finger that was at short let it slip along, and Andy went to first safe and sound. Stovall went in, and the crowd called out that he'd better do something if he wanted to get any kind of a reputation in this team, but he only struck out and the vision of a big "2" on the score board vanished into thin air. Zalusky over threw to second, and Andy moved on to third, and things looked good again when Sammy stepped In. He got his base on balls, and as the first ball was thrown to Murdock, he stole second in a beautiful manner. The people on the planks went wild, and yelled to Murdock that it was his turn sure. He did his best, but it was only a fly to center field, nd the game was done. Umpire ' McCarthy was a pleasant sur prise to the fans that have oeen witness ing the games the last two weeks. He calls out his decisions In clarion tones, and everybody can hear what he has to say. He won't stand any kicking, and makes the teams play ball from the start Stovall did not come up to expectations, but he may show up better later on in the week, when he gets accustomed to his new surroundings. Murdock's running yesterday was a feature, and brought forth much well-merited applause, both from the grandstand and bleachers. The score: PORTLAND. -r , . AB. R. H. PO. A. E.
