Portland won another eleven-inning
Kama from Sacramento yesterday, a
! ""ehera battle between John Gladstone
Graney. McCredie'. star southpaw, and
( Charley Baum. better known aa "Spider,"
-to was a member of the famous pen
I n.nt-wlnnlng Los Angeles team of sev
eral seasons bso. bui whn r,r,w a
alary from Cnarley Graham and Sacra
mento. The. score was 1 to 0. being; the
"ui-oui oi ie season credited to
Portland.
The day was cold and dismal, but
throughout the regulation nine Innings
and two extra sessions, the fans, and
there waa a goodly crowd present, man
aged to work up plenty of enthusiasm
that offset the frigid atmosphere. Jimmy
Shinn. the muchly-disputed player, who
Is now holding down shortstop for Sac
ramento, contributed greatly to Port
land's chances of winning, for the only
run scored In the game resulted from his
b.d heave of Ed Kennedy's sharp
grounder In the final chapter. That was
followed by a healthy swat to left by
etcher Armbruster, and It eluded tho
grappling mitts of Indian House and
rolled to the fence, permitting Portland's
tlrst baseman to trot home all alone for
the only tally of the matinee.
Fielding Is Big League.
The pitching of both Granev and Baum
and the hatting of Walter McCredie were
pectaoular features, but the fielding
stunts of Olson. Johnson. Kennedy.
Ryan. Raymer and Jansing offered oppor
tunities galore for the, rooting of the
fans.
Charley Graham, the brainy leader of
the Saoramento team, was behind the bat
himself, and his working with "Spider"
Plant and his frequent conferences with
. Baum plainly Indicated he hns not for
gotten the tricks of old, and It might be
: mentioned that Baum was alwavs able
to deliver the goods when Portlanders
were on the paths. That is, he was
until the eleventh canto, for ha failed
completely In his effort to pul Arm
duster, and the Portland catcher's
healthy swat broke up one of the pretti
est games ever seen here.
Baum allowed nine safe hits, while
Craney waa not so liberal, for the Port
lander only allowed the visitors five that
count In the batting averages. Baum
fanned six. while Graney went him two
better with a total of eight whiffs, which
Included Mr. Fred Raymer three times.
Graney walked two men and hit one.
while Baurn'a total passes numbered two
free tickets.
Walter McCredie had his batting eve
abnormally developed yesterdav. for the
tall manager corralled four healthy hit
In aa many trips to the plate, but on his
fifth essay he sent a screaming liner to
renter that did not elude tne grapplers of
Charley royla, and Mao lost one more
Mfflet on that account. Armbruster and
Olson figure In the swat column twice
each, and the former's last hit is the one
that counted against the visitors, while
Ms first tap was an Infield chance that
he beat to first.
Shinn Mikes Wild Throw.
Breen opened the eleventh with a fiv
to House. Kennedy smashed the first
ball at Shinn. The little shortstop fum
bled momentarily Bnd then tossed wildly
to Gandil. the ball sailing to the right
field bleachers, and Kennedy romped to
second. Armbruster fouled off two and
then sent a screamer over Shinn'. head,
that House failed to stop. The ball rolled
to the fence, and the players did not feel
called upon to chase It. as Kennedy was
racing over the plate with the run that
wound up the game.
The contest became a pitchers' battle
from the beginning. In the first Inning
Graney walked Jansing. but QandU'a
best effort was a fly to McCredie. Ryan
and Olson fanned aa the first two bats
men for Portland, and Ort popped a fir
to Shtnn. Graney closed the second In
ning by fanning Raymer and Adams.
Tortland filled- the paths In the home
team's half. McCredie hit for his first
two-aacker. and Johnson was sate when
he bunted to Baum. who threw to third
to cat oh McCredie. but the wily manager
fcad remained at second, and two were
en. Breen filed to House, and Kennedy
forced McCredie at third, but Armbruster
walked and the rathe were loaded with
rlayers in white suits. Granev was un
able to do better than to hit to Ravmer.
and the excitement wsj over.
Portland again filled the bases In the
seventh. Kennedy was out at first, but
Armbruster beat out his Infield tap
Graney flew to Doyle and Ryan walked.
Olson beat out Shinn a throw of his
grounder, filling the sacks, but Ort could
not negotiate In the pinch, his effort con
sisting of a pop fly to Jansing.
Sacramento Crow Threatening.
Sacramento opened the first of the
eleventh in a threatening manner. After
Baum had fanned. Shinn was safe on
Johnson's error, and went to second
when Charter Doyle was hit bv a pitched
ball. Jansing hit to Graney. who prompt -lv
hurled to Johnson, retiring Shinn on a
forced play. Gandil lifted a high fly
to Breen and the danger was over.
Both teams fought hard for every ad
vantage, but good pitching, combined
with splendid fielding, held the contend
ers runless for ten innings and a half
T'mplre McCarthy gave satisfaction: In
fact, he was eminently fair and impartial
In all of his decisions. Thus far the
knight of the indicator has not had a
kick more strenuous than the usual ar
guments about ball and strikes. The
umpire is the best judge of these, how.
ever, and the players gain nothing by
Ktcaing. Armbruster was soaked the
first assessment for throwing his bat
after being called out on strikes in the
ninth. The score t

tlon that Judge McCredie did promise
that player to Sacramento. Ewing is
backed up by Charley Graham, the leader
of the Sacramento team. Ewing takes the
harsh criticisms given him with much
more grace than do many men ln public
life. and when the dispute between him and
the McCredles is broached he laughs good
naturedly and replies that all he asks is
that the people of Portland listen to his
side of the etory before they set them
selves down as unalterably opposed to
him and his manner. In defending him
self, or explaining his stand, Cal Ewing
last night said:
"I suppose I am all kinds of a porch
climber and trainronber. in the opinion of
the fane hereabouts, but I am sure that
after I have explained my part in the
matters In dispute you will find me not
half so bad a fellow as I have been paint
ed. In the first place, I am criticised for
being the president of the Pacific Coast
League. That is not my fault. I have
tried to get rid of the Job for more than
two years, and the league does not seem
anxious, or willing even, to try very hard
to get somebody else. I have plenty to
do to look after my San Francisco Inter
ests, both baseball and otherwise, am not
desirous of clinging to this presidency Job
and any time the officials of the league
want to select another I am only too glad
to step down and out. It is a worse Job
than that of umpire, so far as being
thanked for one's efforts Is concerned.
"Ton can bet every dollar that you have
or ever expect to have that I will not be
president of the league next year. I have
been the fall guy long enough. Every
team in the league Is yelling Itself hoarse
about the president favoring the San
Francisco and Oakland clubs. May I ask
you. aa well as all of the fans. Just how
much good has been done the San Fran
cisco and Oakland clubs. If I have fa
vored them? Where or in what position
have the San Francisco and Oakland clubs
finished in the last six pennant races?
Tell me that, and then figure where I
helped San Francisco or Oakland in the
least.
Puts Tt Up to McCredie.
"As for the Shinn matter, it strikes me
that the MeCredies are unduly excited all
of a sudden. I do not know when or how
Shtnn was signed to a Portland contract,
and do not care. That does not matter ln
the least. Shinn was an outlaw player
and he had not been reinstated at the
time he was transferred to Sacramento.
As to this transfer, It was done on the
say of Judge w. W. McCredie himself,
who told me at the last meeting that I
would be privileged to give Sacramento
Shinn. as well as Byrnes, ln the event that
McCredie secured the reinstatement of Bd
Kennedy.
"This statement was made in the hear
ing of several members of the leagues in
cluding Frank Ish. E. N. "Walter, Charley
Graham and myself, and I took the Judge
at his word, having always found his
word aa good as his bond. It Is possible
that he has forgotten that he ever made
such an assertion, but he did, and he
assisted very much in getting Sacramento
Into the leaa-ue bv go doing, for Charley
Graham had seen the young fellow play
and liked him very much. As for Port
land being robbed out of the value of the
Player, that is absolute nonsense. If
Shinn Is bought or drafted at. the end of
this season, Sacramento does not get a
cent for him Portland will get It. He
virtually belongs to Portland, but Is al
lotted to the Sacramento Club for one
year, according to the decision of Secre
tary Farrell. of the National Board. I
do not believe that Portland needs the
services of thts player right now. in
fact. I do not see where McCredie can
Improve his team. It looks verv good to
me. and the bt crowd yesterday shows
that the team is appreciated.
Umpires Must Be Square.
"Another thing." continued Ewing "be
fore we conclude. I want you to assure
all the fans of Portland that every um
pire on the Pacific Coast League staff
has absolute Instructions to call every
play Just as he sees it. and never to make
a practice of favoring home clubs. So
far as possible I try to eliminate this
evil, but you cannot construct umpires
always as desired. In the Olson case I
have nothing to say. There is nothing to
abolrt My umpire has mad" no
report about It. and If he had I should
pay no attention to It, for the reason that
he failed to obey the rules providing foe
the ejectment of a player from the fame
for such an action." B

inning games are played. Accounts of
yesterday's games follow:
Sellwood 8; Woodstock 0.
The first shutout of the reason waa
made yesterday afternoon, when Sellwood
defeated Woodstock by the score of S

for Sellwood, and his work in backing up
of the rest of the team brought victory.
Zwald, the Woodstock pitcher, kept the
opposing team from running the score up
as high as it would otherwise have been.

SEATTLE WRESTLER TREATED
TO SURPRISE BY THOMAS.
Agrees to Throw Six Men. in 90 Min
utes and Himself Goes Down in
Half That Time.
Joe Carroll, and his Seattle world
beater, Charles. Franklin, were treated to
4 most startling surprise ln the handicap
match at the Heilig Theater last night,
when Franklin went on the mat, and in
stead of having an easy, time, as he
thought, was defeated in the very first
fall by Bert Thomas, or Shores, as he Is
sometimes known.
Franklin's manager. Joe Carroll, had
posted $250 and agreed to forfeit this
sum if he could not produce a wrestler
who would throw any six wrestlers in
Oregon in 90 minutes of actual wrestling.
When Franklin stepped on the stage at
the- Heilig last night only two of the
Oregon wrestlers showed up, John Berg
and Bert Thomas, whereupon the Seattle
man announced that in order to make
the bout good, he would throw Thomas
twice and Berg once within the time limit.
However, even though he is a good man,
he was completely outclassed by Thomas,
who was selected as the first man to go
against Carroll's entry.
The supposed easy mark had no soon
er grappled with his man than It be
came apparent that he was by no
means an Inexperienced grappler. In
fact, before ten minutes of the time had
elapsed, he had assumed the upper po
sition and commenced to show the fans
more tricks of wrestling than they
had ever seen before. The manner In
which Thomas used his legs was mar
velous. He displayed more class than
all of the grapplers who have appeared
here, with possibly one or two excep
tions. He seemed to play with Frank
lin, and was not the least hurried or
worried at any time. The manner in
which he fastened leg scissors on
Franklin's arms at will, demonstrated
that he Is a man of considerable abil
ity, and one who is to be reckoned
with by any and all light heavyweights
As this fall lasted hut a little over 40
minutes. Carroll showed himself a true
sportsman by announcing that he would
send Franklin against Berg in an exhtbi-'
tion, ln order to fill out the programme,
and stipulated that it should be merely
an exhibition, because the Seattle man
was almost exhausted by his unsuccessful
efforts to stave off defeat at tba hands
of Thomas.
The two men went on and wrestled for
IS minutes. Franklin was plainly tired
and Berg handled him almost at ease. At
the conclusion of the match Ed Kennedy
announced that either Berg or Thomas
was ready at any time to meet Fred
Beel for the light heavyweight cham
pionship of the world.
