In the greatest baseball struggle
that ever took place in the City of
Portland, and the longest drawn-out
contest in the history of the present
Pacific Coast League, San Francisco
yesterday got the better of a S to 5
argument In twenty innings of as fine
baseball as the fans of Portland ever
witnessed. i
Seven thousand three hundred fans
collected at the Vaughn-street inclo
sure to witness a double-header which
had been scheduled. The extra innings
necessary to decide the first contest,
however, gave the hilarious fans all
they had expected and a little more
besides.
The Second Game Was Not Played.
The game was a superb one to watch
and when the Seals collected toll on
the deciding run in the, twentieth
inning, a general sigh of regret went
up all around. The thousands present
sincerely sympathized with Pitcher
Jack Graney. of the Portland team,
who is credited with the loss through
no fault of his own. Unfortunate Jack
Ryan was the guilty Portlander on
whom the blame of the defeat is
heaped, for he tossed away victory on
three different occasions.
Despite the fact that San Francisco
won out on errors, the game was a
glorious contest, and both teams
fought hard throughout. Harry Sutor.
the Texas southpaw, was pitted against
our clever left-hander, and Harry was
touched up much more lively than had
been expected.
That it was to be a hard-fought con
test was demonstrated In the first
Inning, for in that session both pitch
ers were relieved from precarious situ
ations by timely double-plays on the
part of their support. Mohler was the
first Seal up. and he promptly sat down
because of his Inability to connect with
the iltch. Hildebrand singled to left
and Zelder punched one for two sacks
to rirht. Johnson's quick return of the
ball from right Held failed to get Roily
at second, but Cooney heaved to
Whaling in time to morgue, the ambi
tious Hildv at the plate. While this
Blay was taking place, Zelder decided
that third was easy, but Whaling
tucked the ball under HUdy's fifth rib
and heaved to Ryan yards ahead of the
speedy Seal shortstop, and the double
had been completed.
In Portland's half, Casey opened by
beating an infield tap. Basseys at
tempt at sacrificing was a pop fly
to Williams. Tom Raftery lined one at
Kid Mohler, who threw to Zelder, and
the relay to first completed the double
Plajr. Johnson Gets Home Run.
The third inning brought Joy to the
home fans, for that ever faithful bats
man, Ote Johnson, opened up on Sutor
by spanking the second pitched ball
over the right garden wall and against
one of the Exposition buildings for the
longest home run of the present sea
son. While the 'Terrible Swede"
leisurely trotted around the sacks the
fans gave a great demonstration in bis
honor.
The manner in which Graney was
disposing of the Seals gave hope, of a
weil-earned victory over the best
twlrler on ihe Seal payroll. Incidentally
It would have given Portland the ma
jority of the series.
The fifth inning witnessed the addi
tion of another earned run to the Port
land tally sheet. Hal Danzig opened
up with his first two-ply swat, and was
brought home when Johnson slapped
out a single to center.
Graney continued to close the Seals
out runless until the eighth, and after
the fifth Harry Sutor played havoc
with the batting averages of the home
team.
Long Hit Ty Sutor.
In the eighth inning Graney had dis
posed of the first two Seals, and Sutor
was looked upon as easy, for he had
fanned out on his two previous visits
to the batter's box. On this occasion
he outguessed Graney on . a straight
ball right where he wanted it. and
knocked it out of the lot In almost the i
identical spot selected by Johnson.
Mohler was easy and Portland still had
the advantage with the score 2 to 1.
Hildebrand was the first man up in
the ninth, and flew out to Phil Cooney.
Roily Zeider seemed to be the luckiest
man among the Seals, for he poked an
easy one to Jack Ryan, who behaved
miserably by tossing the sphere yards
beyond Hal Danzig, and Zelder brought
up at third. The Portland Infielders.
came In for the purpose of making a"
play at the plate, but Melchlor managed
to push one past Casey on which Zelder
scored the tlelng run. A speedy double
play from Cooney to Danzig disposed of
further danger In this Inning. Portland's
half was fruitless, and the extra Innings
began.
San Francisco hooked two more runs
In Its half of the tenth, and It looked like
curtains for Portland. But the vagaries
of the game decided otherwise, and the
home team succeeded in scoring an equal
number of aces. The Seals' runs were
the result of another bad heave by Ryan.
Beck opened the proceedings with a sin
gle to tight. La Longe sacrificed him to
second, and when Ryan . threw Curtis'
bounder away. Beck scored, and Curtis
took third. Sutor fanned, but Whaling
dropped the ball and then threw wildly
to Danzig, scoring Curtis. Mnhlier hit
to Ryan, who threw Sutor out at second,
and Mohler was caught shortly after on
an attempted steal.
Cooney opened Portland's half with a
s'ngle, and went to third on Danzic'a

Baftprv Bach had a chance to win the

truck out and the latter flew to Beck.
Then both pitchers settled down to a
rrt hAttie Both sides were retired
rith rsconilarltv from the tenth to the
16th inning, when each scored another
run. Mohler and Hildebrand were dis
posed of handily by Graney In this in
ning, but Zelder poked a safety past
Cooney. Melchlor walked, and Williams
hit for two bases because Bassey is not
ntftv at ludKing long drives as Is Hil
debrand. This hit scored Zelder and held
Melchlor at third. Beck went out at
first, ending the inning. Daring base-
running by Raftery and Cooney's clever
hit-and-run play tied it up again for
Portland.
As the two teams had agreed to call
the game at 6 o'clock in order to permit
San Francisco to catch the early train.
it looked as tnough the contest would
end in a draw. But Jack Ryan, even
though chased to right field after his
disastrous blunder of the ninth and tenth
Innings, had to butt in again, and Zelder
scored the winning run after two men
were out.
Zeider Scores Victory.
Mohler. opened the 20th with a . two-
base hit. Hildebrand sacrificed him to
third, but when Zeider hit to Cooney, the
little fellow winged Mohler out at the
plate, and if Whaling had been a trifle
faster he would have got Roily at sec

and Ryan dashed in to get the ball and
hold Zelder at third, but missed it en
tirely and Roily scored, while Melchlor
took three bases. Graney fanned Beck,
ending the Inning. As Portland was un
able to negotiate in its half, the run de
cided the game.
The magnificent work of Phil Cooney
at short was the feature of the game.
aside from the pitching of Graney and
Sutor. Cooney handled 17 chances and
had nothing that resembled an error.
His work was the finest exhibition of
fielding seen on the Portland grounds In
months. On two occasions the little fel
low passed up the runner going to first
and got an ambitious Seal who had over
run third' or tried to score on the play.
Casey's work at second also was bril
liant. Bert Whaling caught a magnificent
game and It was too bad that he marred
his work by dropping the third strike on
butor In the tenth.

Inability to Solve Delivery of San

lor Slump in Batting
Averages.
The San Francisco team outbatted Port
land last week because Danzig, Raftery,
Bassey and Ryan of the regulars were
unable to solve the delivery of the Seal
pitchers to any great extent. This also
explains, In a measure, the. reason for
at least two of the victories scored by
the visitors. Under the circumstances the
Portland team Is to be congratulated on
getting an even break.
A glance at the column denoting the
runs scored shows that Portland beat the
Seals out in this department at least, for
McCredle's huskies tallied 28 runs in the
six games, while the best the visitors
could do was to acquire 26.

lor the series. Joe Curtis and Sutor of
the San Francisco Dlavers batted the
hardest for their club. Curtis seems to
delight In batting the ball hard on the
Portland grounds, while on the other
diamonds he does very little in the
hitting line.
The Portland players are demons with
the .stick while on the road and it is
possible that during this week's series at

ABERDEEN. Wash., Aug. 2. (Special.)
Baker made an effort to win both
games today, and with good support in
the afternoon might have done so. Star

while Gus Thompsan pitched for the
champions In the afternoon. Big crowds
saw both games. In the morning game
the Tigers found Starkell for a total of
ten hits, which were good for five runs.
Baker was an enigma to the locals, who
were unable to locate his delivery. Shea
got the first home run of the series over
the left field fence. Householder's three
bagger netted a run for Aberdeen In the
seventh, and Waters' high peg was re
sponsible for the other.
Thompson struck out 12 men in the ma
tinee, and the four hits secured off him
were widely scattered. Aberdeen bunched
hits in the second and sixth, but did not
score In either Inning. The lone tally of
the afternoon was the result of Suess'
failure to hold Brlnker's fly. Sharp field

With the first annual Pacific National
Livestock show and harness race meet
but six weeks away, one of the most lm
portant meetings of the directors of the
Country Club and Livestock Association
yet held will take place at the offices of
the association in the Hamilton Building,
this afternoon.
One of the important matters is the
transportation arrangements for the han

is expected that the same rates which
the Southern Pacific. O. R. & N. and
Northern Pacific have granted to the
State Fair at Salem will be given the Pa
cific National people, here. The Southern
Pacific offers to carry all exhibits, in
cluding livestock, but not race horses, free
to and from the State Fair, simply to en
courage exhibitors and attendance, while
the two other roads named . carry the
exhibits free one way. These rates apply
on,ly within the state, however, but the
association here will be satisfied If simi
lar concessions are granted for the Port
land meet.
President Josselyn, of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company is ex
pected to be present and announce de
tails of the special facilities which his
company will give for the handling of the
crowds for the week of the races, and
also the time when such extra service
will be Installed.
Officers of the State Poultry Association
will announce their plans for the ex
hibit which will be made in connection
with the meet, together with the amount
of space required for exhibits of chick
ens, ducks, geese and turkeys, all of
which are likely to be embraced in the
show. The Country Club management is
figuring on furnishing a canvas pavilion,
100 by 150 feet, for the poultrymen this
year, and a permanent building hereafter,
in case the first show proves a success
and the poultrymen agree to give up
their mid-winter shows.
The building committee, which has
charge of arrangements for housing the
temporary population of several hundred
people who will be quartered on the
grounds, will report on this matter as
well as on the progress of the still un
completed buildings, and on the enlarged
fire-protection system to be installed.
Entertainment, programme and amuse
ment committees will also report, and it
is expected that consideration of the
scores vof concessions applied for will add
rest to the gathering.
More than one-third of the mile track
has already been surfaced and Is- being
tamped, wet down and rolled so that it is
in almost perfect condition. At the
present rate of progress the entire mile
oval should be finished in about three
weeks.
