San Franclsoo, July lB.-r Harry Suter
ettne bach at the Oak today after de
feating:' them on ,)aat Thursday and
twirled shut out ball for nine A full
' Inning, while Christian went down to
defeat for the second time In the week.
Although Oakland scored one run' in
this Inning the statement still goes that
andsome , 'arry - pitched shut-out ball.
: This lonesome tally waa more a mat
ter of luck than anything else. The
' Wolverines gathered all of five bln-
. glea for the afternoon, but they could
' -do nothing In the way of spiking the
rubber after the opening' round. On
the, contrary, while the Seals only got
one' more safety than the Oaks did
they made their hits count and the
Oaks played bad enough baeeball , be
hind Christian to run up, five. runs for
the locals. In fact, the boobiest sort
' of boob errors gave San Francisco most
of Its runs and Christian shouldn't be
blamed for the loss of the game If the
red tape of the official averages didn't
demand that It should so go into the
. records. '
Oaks Score First Boa.
Starting off with the same rush as
they did the day before the Oaks had
a run across almost before the echo
- of the opening gong had faded away.
, Maggart lined out to Madden. Ware's
caught one of Suter's fast shoots on
the handle of his stick and dribbled It
,' through to center field for a single. Me
advanced to second on Cutshaw's out
and then stole 'third. With two down
Zaeher hit a fast bounder to short.
"Vltt purposely let the ball go by him
i.to give Weaver a chance, but Just as
f the shortstop reached for the ball It
took a false bound and shot by him to
left field. Wares tallied. . The lucky
run was. the one and only' moment of
cheer for the Oakland rooters.
Christian, with one of those lightning
Warea-Cutshaw-Tiedemann double plays
In the first, gov by two Innings with
out allowing; a hit. but In the third
he was In trouble for keeps. . Vitt. first
up, bunted the ball between the pitcher
and first base. Oscar had no trouble
in arriving at first In safety. Schmidt
was plunked on the arm. Suter bunt
ed cleverly, shoving the . two runners
along- one base.
Cutshaw Injured.
JThen the real fireworks started and
It all would have been laughable but
for the serious injury to George
Cutshaw. the popular second saoker of
the Oaks, who was hit in the mouth
by a thrown ball.- The force of ' the
blow knocked two or nis upper teetn
out : and loosened those In his lower
jaw.. -He retired in favor' ot Qua Ht
ltwt. With' runners on third and second and
one out, Powell knocked a skier back
Of second base. Zacher muffed the
ball. Vltt scored and Schmidt reached
third.
While the Oaks were attempting- to
recover from the shock, Schmidt eneaked
up the' line and did a "Ty Cobb" for
-home. -Wares, -who had been -holding
'the ball, woke up in time to heave

safe and Powell went to second. Powell
took a long lead and M1U slammed the
ball at second to catch him. in some
manner -the sphere glanced off Cut

the face.

the set progressed and finally won out,
6-4.
Wlckersham was too weak to keep up
the terrifio pace that had been set and
after the first few games of the fifth
set Tyler won steadily, taking the set
by the score of 6-2.
Throughout the whole match' the play
waa brilliant and the players were ap
plauded repeatedly. Wlckersham played
the steadier game, while Tyler relied
more on his splendid footwork and fine
driving-.

Welsh as his opponent, the sensa
tional New York lightweight. Knockout .
Brown, Is to. show his goods on the
Coast. ' , - -
Knockout's manager, Dan Morgan, to
day wired Promoter Milton T. Clark of
the Metropolitan Athletic club here that
Wolgast for 20 rounds at 133 pounds
for the biggest possible purse and s
310,000 side bet. Morgan Includes la
his wire the statement that the cham- .
Dion is at noan airaia oi me iasi new
Yorker, but ought to welcome an op
portunity to regain the prestige he lost
in his two former bouts with Brown.
Brown further agrees to take on
Freddie Welsh before the Metropolitan
club on Labor day, all of which Is good
news to the local promoter, who wss
becoming somewhat anxious about the -proposed
McFarland-Wells go and Whs .
thinks the San Fraaclaco fans would
flock to see the classy exhibition which
the eastern pugilist would undoubtedly
put up.
Promoter Clark today was hourly ex
pecting to hear from O'Day, who Is In
the east, trying to finally clinch the
Wells-McFarland match. With the poss
ibility of landing Knockout Brown for
his dates here, Clark is a whole lot less
keen In his negotiations with the Brit
ish champion and the stock yards scrap,
per. Even if McFarland and Wells
come to terms, Clark, will take no final
action until next Monday or Tuesday.
By that time he will have) weighed tht
relative drawing qualities of the four
fighters and probably will decide
whether it will be Welsh and Brown or
Wells and McFarland on Labor day.
Clark at first was strong for the
British-Chicago bout, but he Is rapidly
beginning to think that Welsh's speed
and skill pitted against the New York
er's strength and fightlnarness might
look even better to the fans here than
would Packy and the English boy.
