The difference between good and bad
pitching and the Immediate effect on
the aspect of the percentage tahle was
ably emphasized at the Coast League
park yesterday, when Klmer Koestner
pitched the Beavers to a 3-1 victory
over the Vernon Tleers In the final
Same of the three weeks' stay at home.
Koestner Is one of those flingers
who has to eat garlic or raw onions
to let you know ha Is around. Beside
him the, Sphinx would appear garrul
ous. But that tall, lanky right-hander
can be depended upon In the pinch, as
witness his two wins over llogan only
three days apart.
"If I had two other men as reliable
aa Klmer I'd be up In the first division
tooay. tie's the grandest pitcher In
the league." said Manazer Mct'redle
after the ninth inning finale. Mc J
,rciin mm uaianrn is weii tounuea inr
Koeatner has won five of the eight
Portland victories this season. Thanks
to the Piper. III., youth the Beavers
took two of the five games of the Ver
non aeries.
-Dally- Cray la llaaaaaerea.
"Polly" Gray, a former Los Angeles
southpaw who has been Injecting him
self Into numerous major league box
scores for several seasons back, began
the offensive work for Haps visitors.
But despite the fact that the Hoganlles
frave him the usual working basin of
a run In the first Inning, he was con
tinually In deep water
Finally, with one out In the fourth
Inning, and after the Beavera had made
their winning tally, the straggling Cal
ifornia rooters were given an oppor
tunlty to warble at that familiar
Southern melody: "Oh. my darling
'Dolly Gray: they have taken you
away." for "Soldier" Carson rushed to
the rescue.
From that on the two heavers en-
cared In a maanlflrent battle of
brains. Vernon threatening on one or
:wo occasions to trespass from the
phlegmatic tenor of the going.
Koeatarr Cool I aaer fire.
Koestner's remarkable coolness un
der fire and his ability to muster latent
energy pulled the Beavera out of an
extremely tight hole In the seventh In
ning when Vernon filled the bases with
only one man out and the two slug
gers. Patterson and Brashear. waiting
to murder the sphere. Referring to
Patterson the office boy pens:
"Eight thousand eyes were on him
aa he rubbed his hands In 'dolt'
"Four thousand hearta stopped beat
ing as he wiped them on his 'sholt.' "
Mister Koestner writhed In secret
anger. Then Plowle! Strike one.
Plowle! again. Strike two. Plowle!
tome more. And a very exasperated
Patterson had struck out In the pinch.
A few seconds later 4000 fans broke
Into a still more frantic outburst of
cheering, when Koestner doled out the
same dose of poison to the slugger
Brashear. except that Brashear had
three balls In his favor before Rimer
settled to bis task. It waa beautiful
pitching.
Bayleee Pre am Ran.
Vernon scored Hogan's one In the
Initial Inning on doubles by Carlisle
and Brashear. The MeCredleltes tied
It up in the third on Bancroft's double
Into center. Butler'a single and Krne
ger'a two-base swat to the aame hole.
Butler brought In the tally and only
sensational pegging by Bayless to the
plate cut Bancroft down by Inches.
McDowell opened the fourth Inning
bv walking. Gray held Rodgers to an
Infield out but McDowell reached sec
ond from whence he scored on How
ley's drive to left field. Then Hogan
derrlcked his southpaw, and well and
wisely he acted, for the Beavers should
previously have grabbed off a couple
more In the second inning, when they
had the bases full and nobody down on
hlta by Krueger and Rapps and Mc
Dowell's free transportation. Rodgers.
Howley and Koestner. however, walked
he plank In quick succession.
Carlisle Lea Chase.
Although few of the fans knew tt.
Carlisle. Vernon left fielder of triple
play fame, pulled the prise "boner"
of the season In the ninth Innlna-. when
he threw away Hogan's chance of
pulling out a victory. And It waa a
grand opportunity, too. Carlisle was
on first from Rodgers' boot when Bay
less grounded one over the ssme route.
Rodgers tossed the ball to Butler at
second. Butler throwing wild to Rap pa.
trying to complete a double, Bayless
going to second.
Butler, however, wss four feet of the
second bag and had Carlisle touched It
and gone on to third there would have
been men on second and third with
only one out. But Carlisle failed to do
so and died a natural death by ambling
n the bench. The score:

Portland Colts and the Victoria Bees
open the 1813 Clasa a Lurua season
In Portland.
Frank Kastley, the former Seal

Williams to twirl the opening game,
with Stanfleld as the alternate. Stan
field Is the Vernon fllnger sold to Van
couver thla Spring and evidently se
cured within the past day or two by
Williams. President Wattelet and Man
ager Nordyke, of the Bees, have chosen
Concannon, a new hurler, who pitched
Tuesday's game against Seattle.
Mundorff, the hard-hitting outfield
er, has been given up as lost to Wil
liams, so Fries, a hard-hitter but a
slower man. will likely continue to
hold down right field. President Me
Credie said last night over the tele
phone from Vancouver, where he Is laid
up by illness, that he had received no
word of acceptance from San Francis
co, in whom title In he "Russian" is
vested, consequently entertained little
hope of purchasing him. Mundy Is still
adorning the bench for the Seals,
President McCredie will not be over
until Wednesday.
The Northwestern season has now
been on for three weeks with Victoria
and Portland, the cellar champions of
a year ago, enjoying their heyday of
popularity by reason of being up near
the top. If President Jones had mapped
out the first month In advance he could
not have chosen more psychologically
for the local fans are Intensely Inter
ested In the organization Lou Nordyke
la heeding to this city.
Williams has three new regulars In
his lineup Fries, Strait and Kibble;
Nordyke, too, will present three re
cruits outside his pitching staff Sta
dllle. Meek and Rawllngs. Meek Is the
behemoth batting king who is cleanup
man for the Bees. A glance over the
batting array shows a striking simi
larity In the makeup of the teams.
Both managers are first-sackers, Nor
dyke having been with Spokane for
three seasons back; both are batting
down In the fifth notch, while the
catchers on the teams are Inserted high
up in the batting order.
Owing to the Coast League priority
no formal exercises will usher In the
Jones' circuit contests.
Pitcher Bill Bloomfleld. one of the
star right-handers of Williams' club,
reached Portland late Saturday night,
a day ahead of the club, aa he came
straight through from Vancouver.
"Our team looks much stronger than
last year." said Bloomfleld. "Vancou

Seattle looka wobbly. Barry has only

TACOMA. Wash, May 5. (Special.)
Vancouver won a rather listless
game from the Portland Colts on the
Tacoma grounds this afternoon 8 to 4.
Tonneson was Ineffective and was
forced to retire at the close of the fifth
Inning In favor of Thomas.
A bad throw by Coltrin proved to be
the turning-point of the game In the
fourth Inning. After Bennett, the vet
eran Beaver second-sacker, had struck
out. Kitty Brashear was presented
with a base. Frisk doubled and Bra
shear pulled up on third. Kippert
came to bat and Nick Williams held
a whispered conference with Tonneson
and Kippert was given an Intentional
base on balls. The Infield came in and
James drove one right at Coltrln. The
youngster fielded It cleanly and then
made a wild peg to Harris, permitting
two runs to score.
Harris also aided Vancouver by mak
ing two beautiful pegs into deep cen
ter field In an attempt to catch runners
at second base. In fact the Colts put
up the poorest exhibition of the sea
son, falling to play up to their usual
snappy style of game. The score:
