THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM. OREGON WELL PLAYED GAMES FEATURE CITY TITLE SERIES TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1034 PARKER'S, KAY'S :'S, HOGG' Parker's and Kay Mill won their games Monday night in the first of the series to decide the city cham pionship of the Salem Softball lea gue. The contests, two of the best seen during the entire summer, were Witnessed by the largest crowd of the season. Parker's defeated Pade's 3 to 2 In 10 innings, and Kay Mill nosed out Hogg Brothers 2 to 1. The same teams will play the second round Wednesday night, decision having been reached to make the Kay Mill Hogg Brothers series a best two out of tliree affair. There was no question that the best teams won Monday night, Par ker's outhitting pade's almost four to one and on several occasions hav ing men on third. With the excep tion of the sixth when John Bone's terrific smash into deep center field scored Steinbock ahead of him, Pa de's had Utile opportunity to reach the home plate, since Henry Singer, turned In one of the best pitching exhibitions of the season. Gilmore, too, on the mound for Kay Mill, was shary of his hits, limiting the appli ance men to four safe blows. The Parker-Pade game was score less until the sixth. In that Inning Mcline singled and was advanced on Kebcr's sacrifice. Meline went to third on a wild pitch and scored on Lou Singer's safe blow. Pade's came right back in the sev tnth and took the lead when Stein bock got a single and came In on Bone's homer. The last of the tenth was an ex citing affair. Meline, first man up, got his second hit of the game and then went to second when Keber connected safely. Henry Singer, at tempting to bunt, popped out to Steinbock and it looked like Pade's might again pull out of a tight spot. A wild pitch again advanced the runners and Lou Singer elcted to bunt with Meline on third ready for a dash to the plate. Singer connect ed all right but dumped the ball immediately In front of the plate. Mcline trapped between third and home came on in and it looked like an easy out. Schneulle, Fade catch er, however, dropped the ball when Meline dashed by him and the game was over. Kay Mill scored once in each of the second and fourth innings while Gilmore kept the appliance men well in check, none of them reaching se cond base except on two occasions. Three hits und an error permitted Hogg Brothers to score in the eighth. KAY MILL AB B H Wintenmite, 3b 5 0 1 Moye, ss 4 0 1 Schwartz, lb 2 0 1 W.

Although xiuDueii pernaps nas been nit slightly harder this year than last when he led the New Yorlt Giants to a league pennant and the world championship, the great left hander still Is the big ace on Bill Terry's staff and POS' siblv the most valuable piece of oitchinir bric-a-bac In baseball. A large slice of the credit for the Giants' present position In the 1934 race they lead the second place Chicago Cubs by five and a half games with six weeks to go belongs to tall Carl. The Giants have play ed 117 games and Hubbell has been In 36 of them, starting 27 contests in 20 of which he still was there at the finish, and serving in relief roles In nine other games. He has won 18 games and lost nine so far and may yet better his 1033 record of 23 and 12 He was called In for rescue duty for the second time In as many days yesterday and stopped a threatening Cincinnati rally as the Giants won 7-4, and extended their winning streak to five games In a row. Jim Moore's double and three sin gles led the Giants' attack which sent Tony Freitas to the showers af ter seven frames. The only other game on the day's major league schedule was extra ordinary in that Pittsburgh finally won a game from Brooklyn. Pie Traynor's Pirates had taken eight HEADED FOR SWIMMING FAME beatings in succession from the Dod- gers until Bill Swift came up with an eight-hit game and led Pitts burgh to a 6-2 triumph.
