All tliat was needed In yesterday's game to comprise all the known anglea of baseball waa a home ran, a balk and a triple play. Every other department of the game was covered thoroughly In Spokane's 16 to 10 victory. There were hits, errors of play and sf lodg ment passed balls, Wild pitches, sacri fices of both varieties, stolen bases, batsmen hit changing of pitchers and last but by no means least runs ays 26 of them. The gains was poorly played and waa excellently pJayed In spots. It saw the downfall of the "17-year-old phe- nom," the "16000 Boston beauty," young Paul Strand of Prairie City. Wash., who has been so highly touted. Strand want along very nicely until the fifth Inning, when with tw men out the Nicks fell on him for four clean hits including trio of left field doubles, and he was chased in favsr of Southpaw Kraft who was jerked after one hit. when Willis went in and finally brought the Indl ans out of the bole, though not before Portland had aasumed a to t lead In the alxth Inning. mcks tr Three Grnnners. Portland likewise used three hurjers, but Garrett, who relieved Lamllne, when Miller batted for him in the fifth was found for eleven bingles of varying de gree and gave the visitors seven runs. which were enough to win. Aroher started the pitching for Port' land but experienced a wild streak in the second Inning and left Lamllne a heritage of bulging baga after three runs had been presented. Before Lam my could get them out flvs more had crossed the plats and the crowd sat back and began to wonder what it was all about In the fifth Inning, however, with two out, Casey walked and Btovall singled Then Williams ripped off a screeching two-sackef to left that scored the pair ahead of him. This was followed by Mentor's two-bagger that chased Wil liams over, and Speaa was safe on Net- zel's error. Ort's two-bagger Into left brought Mensor home, and that saw the end of Strand. Kraft was put in and Bradley drove a single to short that put Ort on third. mxos Cross o lloiuid. Willis then went in and when Hasty tried to. catch Ort at third, the latter scored. That, counting two runs made a the fourth on errors, tied up tha score and Portland forsed one ahead in manner that set the fans daffy when Stovall was safe at second on Netxel's error, pulled a stolen base, took third on a passed ball and scored on William's single. Garrett who had relieved Larallns in the sixth was touched up for seven runs In tbs next three innings on 10 hits, whloh Included two doubles and a triple by Frisk.
