HILDEBRAND HAS COIN RECORD
When Umpire
George Hildebrana
walked off the
yaughn street base
ball field yesterday
afternoon after hav
ing, with possibly
one or two excep'
tlons. umpired bril
llant baseball d ur
ine his six weeks
here, ba probably
did so for the last
time as a Coast
league arbitrator. ' It is rumored that
Hildebrand will ro to the big league
next year and his work during the sea
son would Justify President Johnson of
the American league or President Lynch
Of the National league employing him.
That Hildebrand is the cream or tne
sterling trio of coast league umpires
Is the belief of the fans here, who
have watched him work for two sea
sons and who, with the exception of
his first week In the north last year.
when things were breaking badly for
him, has gotten away In excellent style.
Possessed of a fast pair of legs to
carry him over tne inneia aimosi as
rapidly as the runner, a keen eye that
glimpses every play In the inner or
outer works, a diplomatic Judgment in
handling players and an exquisite
nerve, Hlldy has all the requisites that
go to make a good official These are
the things that the major league heads
want In their umpires and Hildebrand
will fill their cool demand to a nicety.
Hildebrand runs the game and not
the managers or players. They like
him, yet they have a wholesome re
spect for his disciplinary methods.
Practically all of them will tell you on
the quiet that Hildebrand is the best
of the umpires, even some of those
who used to have their little run-ins
with him when he was a player.
Has Taken Uttle Money.
Hildebrand has taken less money
from the ball players than any umpire
the Coast league has ever had. "What
do I want to take their money for,"
explained Hlldy when this unusual con
dition of affairs became known. "The
ball players need what they earn, for
they are only working seven months dur
ing the year and what they make has to
tide them over the other five months
of the year. Oftentimes they cannot
get good positions on account of the
short space of time they have at their
command and are compelled to loaf
through the off season. I did not rel
ish fine when I was playing, although
I only paid one, to Bull Perrlne, In my
life, and I am not going to take the
players' money if I can possibly get
by without it.
-"This year I have only fined four
players In the Coast league and, strange
enough, every one of them belonged
to the Oakland club. Cutshaw lost $10
and" Hoffman and Wares were each re
lieved of 15. I don't think any other
umpire can point to a record so low as
HATTER

that for five months of the season
Of the players participating in a game
the only ones I have sent to the club
house that I can recall are Daley, Van
Buren, O'Rourke, Cutshaw, Wolverton,
Patterson, Thorsen and Pecklnpaughj
Of course I've run a lot of them off
the coaching line. Including the Irre
pressible Happy Hogan."
Hildy's la a record that an umpire
can point to with" pride and, although
several managers have accused Hilde
brand of toting a chip on his shoul
der, the fact that he has fined so few
players would tend to show the con
trary to be the fact.
An Umps With Courage.
That he has cqurage in unlimited
quantity was revealed when he called
Jack Barry out in the ninth inning a
week ago last Sunday on the ground
that he had run out of the line and in
terfered with Abbott's throw to first
base, thereby preventing Portland from
scoring two runs and winning the
game. Had he desired to be a "homer,"
he could have switched his decision and
called Barry safe. But Hildebrand
gave the decision as he saw It, al
though he knew that he would be sub
jected to a lot of criticism by the in
flamed fans. And it is a fact that
when he left the field upon the con
clusion of the second game, which
Portland won, the bleacherite, though
armed with cushions, gave him a cheer
of encouragement instead of a bom
bardment of abuse

Steen's Pitching and Timely
Hitting Too Much for
J Patsy's Harps.
Timely manipulation of singles and
doubles off Byram In the fourth and
fifth, combined with Lewis' error, gave
Portland a 3 to 3 game yesterday after
noon over Sacramento, making It a clean
sweep for the champions. The feature
of the game was the batting of Lind
say, who corralled four singles In four
times up.
Portland started off in the lead when,
with one out, Lindsay got his second
single. Rapps filed to Mahoney, but
Krueger came through with a timely
double to center and Lindsay . sprinted
home. Krueger overran second and be
fore he could return, Lewis, Lerchen and
O'Rourko had relayed him out.
They Repeat Stunt.
The same sort of a cluster gave the
Champa their second run, which they
stretched into two later In the frame
With two down the Clevelander got his
third hit and again raced around from
the Initial corner when Rapps doubled
to left center. Rapps sparred around
for a chance to steal third, but Just
then Krueger hit a short fly to Lewis.
Jimmy was too sure of it and muffed.
Rapps by that time was aaross the
rubber, for the run thaj decided the
game.
Rapps'. spectacular catch and relay
through Kuhn to Sheehan, cut off one
or two scores. Mahoney and Van
Buren had singled In the fifth
and Thomas' out moved them up a
base. Lerchen hit one into right and
Rapps turned and sprinted toward the
fence. He made a wild leap forthe
pill and it stuck in his band. Mahoney
couldn't see how Rapps could possibly
catel: the ball and he started for home.
Rapps saw him coming In and winged
to Kuhn, who relayed to Sheehan and
the Jig was up.
Only Pass Converted.
The only man who walked duvlng the
game was Danzig and he ambled in the
seventh after O'Rourke fanned. Ma
honey filed to Chadbourne and Panr.lg's
pass was converted into a run when
Vun Buren laced a low liner to center
field for three basos. Van came In on
Thomas" scratch hit that bounded away
from Lindsay. Tommy was out try
ing to steal.
Nebinger started off the ninth with a
single to leftbut Steen, who had been
pitching remarkably steady ball, caused
O'Rourke to hit into a double play. He
grounded to Steen, who tossed to Peck,
who In turn pivoted quickly to Rapps.
Steen tolled- his ninth strikeout by
fwhlfflng the last man up. Danzig, who.
by the way, fanned seven times last
week in front of the Beaver gunners.
Two Man Left Boms.
The two teams left for the south last
night, McCredle leaving his only south
paw, Henkle, at home, and taking along
Fred Lamllne from the Portland North
western league team. Rodgers was left
at home but ordered to take the train
as soon as his ankle felt strong. Mc
Dowell, the recruit second baseman
from Nebraska, will report in Califor
nia early next month.

Crack Portland Team Is Too
Much for Clever Apple
Pickers.
After shutting out their opponents In
the last four games and making the
grand record of 43 Innings without a
score against them, the crack Hood
River team went to pieces in the fourth
canto of yesterday's game at Hood
River and allowed the hard hitting
Gresham Giants to drive in four runs
and turn th game into a farce.
The final score was 9 to 1 in
favor of the Giants. "C" Townsend,
on tne mound for Gresham, was
again in fine form and let the
home team down to five singles
while Hart, who has been twirling great
ball for Hood River, was hammered to
the four corners of the lot.
Gaines, Bauer and Robinson were the
fielding stars of the -day, the former
making one more of his famous pegs to
home plate and cutting off a run.
Gaines and Rich Parrott were the star
sluggers, while Hall, the Hood River
backstop, seemed to be the only home
player who could solve the puzzlers of
Townsend to any extent. The score:
