Oak I And made 12 hits off the Portland club today. Thirteen may be an unlucky number usually, but the Caks didn't atop on account of that. Ther went slashing their way through Klmer Koestner. some time since of ljom ' Anerlrii. then arcain a Ms leasue twlrler and more recently an Oreftonlan annex. Koestner didn't "hare much" on the ball and he had less when the Commuters had wound up their slug ging bee with a 7 to 1 score. They hit him from all corners and with such rattling regularity that it was little wonder the score piled up. At that. I'ernoll. the chubhy-lea-ged chap with the face like a full nwon, was mighty lucky, so lucky. In fact, that he may easily hare had a horse shoe concealed somewhere about his I arson. Oak Earn Victory. The Oaks were not lucky In win ning, for their bitting strenarth earned them the Ions; end of the score. Per tioll. however, was fortunate In keep In down the Portland tallies. Once, at least, he was saved two runs when a Utile drive that Ryan clipped hit the twtrler on his fat lees and bounded off to be fielded by Cutshow for sn out at tlrst. thereby robbing Ryan of a per fectly safe hit under other conditions. There were other times, also, when the ball fell right into the hands of the Haiders. The Commuters were slinging the ball from the first Inn Ire; to the last and the way they ran the bases helped them larsrely In aatherlng In the runs. Peraoll allowed but five hits, two of them doubles, as compared with the baker's dosen for the Oakland bunch, and he scattered them successfully, never more than one com Ins; at a time. Kvea the absence of Manager Wolver ton who Is on the suspended list for four days, didn't affect the spirit of the Oaks. Bunny Fe-arce "Blessing." Bunny Pearce. sent In to relieve Mitze. who hurt his flnrer. proved a blessing in disguise. His first single scored two runs and later, with an in field hit. he helped the Commuter ahead of him around the bases. Tne Oakland players landed on Koestner for two hits In the first in ning as an Indication of what they proposed to do, although there were no runs. In the second the Bearers got their solitary run on an error by Clyde Wares. Krueger singled to center and was forced at second by Kuhn. An out by PecktnpauKh sent the red-haired catcher to second and when Wares made a boot of a grounder by Rodger. Kuhn tallied, due also to the fact that I'ernoll stopped the ball on lta return to the plate Instead of letting illu gather it In. Mga-art's home run In the third tied the score and the Oaks forged to the front In the fourth, after which It was simply a case of the Commuters piling the tallies. The score In detail: PORTLAND.
