Making up for the time they wasted while Lou Stanley was pitching a two-hit game last Tuesday, the league-leading Beavers today jumped on him from the start, chased him off the slab in three innings and built up a lead that made the orphan Wolves a joke In Sacramento's final Coast League game. Nine to two was the final score. The nine might iave been bigger had not Recruit Pitcher Waldechmidt been so wild that the Beavers thought more of keeping alive than of hitting; and the two might have been smaller had not Pitcher Eastley and his mates taken pity in the last inning. In eight innings only one Wolf reached second that's how effective the ex-Northwestern Leaguer was. In the ninth he let up and three singles and three stolen bases (called such for courtesy) netted two runs. The game might as well have been called In one Inning. Singles by Doane, Derrick, Rodgers and Speas, an error by Orr and Buddy Ryan's double did the trick for four runs in the first stanza. Three more singles and a steal added two more in the second; Speas' triple and Kores' double counted one more In the third, and finished Stanley. Ryan, Davis and Doane managed to get near enough the ball to hit Wald schmldt's offerings, and their singles, mixed in with walks in the sixth and eighth innings, for two more runs.

Piedmont Maroons Meet Weonas at 1:80 and Bradford- to Battle With Meier Jfc Frank Team Later 'Dope Badly Upset. The city baseball championship Is to be settled soon. After much fighting in the council chambers, the four teams remaining battle to the semi-finals this afternoon at the Vaughn-street Park. Every manager now has things about the way he wanted them, and each thinks he might as well be awarded the cup now. Manager Hammer, of the Meier & Frank team, will use Lund, the Walla Walla slabster. While other managers protested vigorously when Lund was mentioned as a substitute for Webb, the Meier & Frank pitcher on the Injured list, Hammer is not saying too much. Hammer is rather Inclined to believe that he would have been better off if he had Webb, who started the series. For another thing, Lund Is to have op position also from the same league In which he played. Manager Swint, of the Bradfords, de clared yesterday that Meile probably would be his pitcher to go against Lund. This leaves the batteries out of the "dope." for there is little that one has which will not be found In the other. Swint Haa Three Choices. If Swint does not send in Meile. his choice will be either Campion or Dtl laru. Dlllard started the aeries with another team, but the managers gave permission on Friday night so that Dll lard is able to go in. Campion Is con sidered as good as any of them. Just how Hammer, of the Meier & Franks, will go on the field is some what a mystery. Even late last night he could not name a lineup which he was positive would appear. Of course, much depends on the game. Hammer has several things up his sleeve, and his team may present almost a new lineup for the game. That city championship cup has come to mean a lot to all the boys, and general shifts may be expected. However, most of the fighting off the field has been done, and two real bat tles can be expected today. The first will be at 1:30, when the Piedmont Maroons meet the Weonas, and the sec ond will be the Bradford-Meier & Frank game, which caused all the diplomats to get into action. Maroons' Strength Uncertain. The Maroons' pitcher still Is an un known quantity, and the lineup also may be shifted generally. The Weonas probably will send in Scott starting with Wentworth behind the bat. In case Wentworth's hand goes bad, Mc Klnley, who was voted in, will take his place. The managers now have the following men to call upon: Weonas Mulkey, second base; Har graves, third base; Prlchard, shortstop; A. Nelson, field; J. Dixon, field; Burdon, field; Wentworth, catcher; Scott, pitcher; Messinger, McKlnley and Mor ris. Piedmont Grimms. Doty, Hornby, Moeller, Hlnkle, Cullins, Neffe, Leipold, Rousellot, Bartholeroy, Donaldson, Tuerck, Odell, McCIure and F. Leipold. Bradford Clothiers McDonald, catch er; Dlllard, Melle and Druhot, pitchers; Edwards, first base; Worden, second; Ingles, short; Kone, third; Bell, Ken nedy, Bateman and Anderson, field, and Bohler, catcher.
