Sacramento's blow-tip in the 15th Inning of today's sensational gams 1st Portland take the entire Be lea and place fcierself In first plftoe after three -weeks' play. The score was 6 to 8. The game was one round: after another Of great playing. Sacramento did not ' males an error until the 15th Inning, when three ot them helped the Beavers end the three hours end ten-mlnvrtea contest. The end was- predloted when Fisher ' connected with Hun, pitching elegant tall, for e, nice one to right. He got round to third when Boardman foiled to yet Steen's grounder, the setting sun iavlng a blinding effect on his- eyes. Boardman Drops- Ban. A moment later Fisher came home when Boardman dropped the throw from La Longe, aimed to catch the runner playing oft third. Netsel sacrificed Steen. ' but the pitcher was caught at the plate when Olsen grounded to Shlniv. Be.pt' double to right, assisted by Ream's er ror, put Olsen to the good with the sec ond run ' tor the inning. Portland started what looked like a walkover In the first with Olsen singling, stealing second and scoring on Rapp's double. Speas came through with the hit which scored Ra.pp. Sacramento evened up by D&iuslg doubling in the sec ond, going third on Boardman's sacrifice and beating home on Raymer's grounder to Olsen. Hunt a. single scored Raymer. The Senators went ahead in the next frame by Perry leading with a single, advancing on O! sen's error and scoring when Rapp stood like a bonehead, hold ing Boardman's out at first. Ore's triple in the sixth sent in the tying run. Hunt Strikes Out Near-Dozen. After two runs and -two hits were made off Beaton In the second inning, Olsen took him out, using D. Ryan. Ryan .gained a decent gait, hut was no equal to the superb work of the big sldewheeler, Hunt, who fanned 11 Portlanders. . Hard-luck Steen saved the day for his team by going in cold in the tenth with the bases loaded and one down. He fanned Boardman and repeated the trick on Foumler, who was sent in for a pinch hit In Raymer's place. The score : PORTLAND. IB IR H PO A E Net sol. Hth-. ...... 7 0 18 6-2 Olsen, as............

The report from Seattle yesterday to the effect that McCredie has sold George. ' Ort- to the Seattle club Is doubted by both Perle Casey and Jesse Garrett. According to the Portland players, McCredie would not sell Ort to Seattle or to any other club, for he Is playing too nice a game.
