Where the Teams Play Today.
Oakland at Portland.
Venice nt San Francisco.
Sacramento at Los Angeles.
Erve Higglnbotham, eccentric Port
land pitcher, will not open the series
against Oakland this afternoon. In
fact, he will not pitch for many days,
unless Manager McCredie relents under
the stress of necessity, for the Beaver
boss plastered an Indefinite suspension
on "Hig" yesterday, following con
firmation of the report that the pitcher
had worked in a "bush" game at Mc
Minnville Sunday under the name of
Howard.
Higglnbotham. or Howard, made a
bit of diamond history at McMinnville,
and incidentally earned a good fee for
his efforts, but that will not keep him
on the Beaver payroll. Pitching
against St. Paul, for McMinnville,
"Hig" effected a no-hit, no-run game,
struck out 13 men, permitted only two
to reach first base, and drove the ball
over the fence with one man on base
for two of the runs of the 3-0 affair.
Incidentally he collected $20 from a
fan who made a rash offer as the
pitcher stepped to the plate. St. Paul
forfeited the game in the ninth inning
following a close decision at first, but
this did not mar "Hig's" record.
But this recital of Hlgglnbotham's
prowess had no effect on Manager Mc
Credie, unless to make him seethe the
more, for after a friend had reported
the incident, the indnnite suspension
of the hurler was announced.
"Higginbotham was due to open
against Oakland tomorrow and I told
him t'.iat he could not go to McMinn
ville," explained McCredie. "He dis
obeyed orders, taking a chance on in
juring his arm and trying to fool me
by taking another name for the day.
But it didn't work. I am paying Hig
ginbotham a good salary to pitch for
Portland, and he must behave or take
the consequences. What we need is
men to help us climb out of the cel
lar, not ones to hurt us with antics
of this kind."
Al Klawltter, the 1912 Beaver, who
will soon wear a Sacramento uniform,
was fined $100 last year for pitching
a game at Stockton, Cal. He scorned
a rest after his trip and pitched three
games the next week, winning two of
them. This caused McCredie to remit
the fine.
.
Oakland will make Its first Portland
appearance of the season in Portland
this week, completing the list of Coast
League clubs to bow before 1912 Port
land fans. McCredie does -not fear the
champions, and, with Hagerman in the
box. will start his squad on wnat he
predicts will be a victorious series.
"Oakland won four In six games
from us when we met earlier in the
season, but two of them were won by
a margin so close that any kind of a
break In luck will give us a count of
four," says McCredie.
Ness, first baseman; Schrim, out
fielder, and Guest, utility inflelder, are
the new faces in the Oakland llnoMp.
Another feature of the trip North may
be the reappearance of Harry Abies
in the box.
Tlie games today and tomorrow will
start at 3:30 o'clock' in order to per
mit the street car company to handle
the crowds to circus and ball park.
Outfielders Lober and Coulson,- the
former from Los Angeles and the lat
ter from Kansas City, are due to don
Portland garb this afternoon. Lober
should arrive with the Oaks, while
Coulson was cheduled to drop in late
last night or early this morning.
One of these men will be used in cen
ter field today, as Krueger played his
last game with the Beavers Sunday
Justin Fitzgerald, the Beaver out
fielder, would like to get a chance to
break into the Southern League, figur
ing that the change of climate would
help his sore arm. No action will be
taken until McCredie receives word
from Nick Williams regarding the
switching of the players to the Colts.
...
If the Oakland pitchers do not twirl
more effective ball this week than in
the past, the Portland hurlers should
score decisively over them. A perusal
of their records is far from flattering)
even if several of them rank high In
the percentage column.
l'ernoll has won eight games and
lost three, but lias not scored a shut
out or pitched a game of five hits or
less. Malarkey has won eight and
lost five, but has twirled but two shut
out jamn and not one of five hits or
less. Uregory has worked in eight
games, but lias failed to score a shut
out or hold opposing batsmen to five
hits or less.

Teams in Double Plays.
EIGHT PULLED IN WEEK
New York 3-6, Boston 5-8.
NEW YORK, June 2. The Highland
ers continued their long list of reverses
today when they dropped two games to
Boston by scores of a to 3 and S to 6.
In the first game only two hits were
made off Fisher, but the poor work by ;
Peckinpaugh lost Fisher the game.
In the second game Manager Chance,
on an effort to break the local club's
hoodoo, asked that his team be per
mitted to bat first, but it failed to
work. Boston won in the sixth when
McConnell was driven out of the box
by a fusillade of hits. Wood was very
wild and Bedient was called to the
rescue.
The loss of today's double header
makes the New York club's record
nine straight defeats, 13 straight de
feats on the Polo Grounds this season,
and 18 straight defeats in New York to
Boston. The Yankees have not won
from the Red Sox in New York since
1911. Score:

Los Angeles and Oakland Each Get
Six Van Buren, Sacramento Vet
eran, Leads Batsmen Dwring
Series, With Moran Next.
Although the Beavers occupy tail
end position in the Pacific Coast
League percentage column, they topped
all rival clubs in one department of
the game last week, manipulating
eight double plays in 33 pulled off by
the six teams. Los Angeles and Oak
land were responsible for six each, San
Francisco and Sacramento for five, and
Vernon for three.
Van Buren, the Sacramento veteran,
was the leading batsman of the cir
cuit during the series which closed
Sunday. "Deacon" batted .471, or eight
hits in 17 trips to the plate. Moran
of Sacramento, hit .407, while Maggart,
of Los Angeles, was third with .38s'.
Shinn, of Sacramento, led in run scor
ing, with eight, while Moran tallied
seven and in addition stole five bases.
, Ryan, the Los Angeles slabster of
no-hit fame, is the league's leading
pitcher, with nine victories and three
defeats for a percentage of .750. Hi
West, who is the leading Beaver
pitcher, and incidentally the man Wal
ter McCredie touts as the best In the
circuit, has won six games and lost
four for a percentage of .600.
