SPORTING GOSSIP OF
1 THE PLAYERS IN THE
PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., April 10.
John Henry Hans Wares, u prod
uct of Zancsvillo, is a hero in the
oyes of the fans. In tho hour of
need the Liliputian artists rapped one
on tbo beak and tie pill sizzled
against the low fieF3 boards. Mur
phy, tho Angeles' outfielder, sot a
despcrato pace to pacturo tho bull,
but the drive hit tbe fence cro Mur
phy could reach tbe spot, and bound
ed back a few feet. Two Oakland,
runners crossed the tapo on (his swat
and tho disgruntled Oakland bugd
were all cheered up. All during the
matinee, Wares waa spanking the
borsehide and most of his efforts
roamed past tho fielder. In the
fifth tho ball took a bad spot, bound
ed over Delmas' domo and tho little
fellow secured a slab. In Thursday's
game Wares walloped out threo lus
cious drives and came back yester
day with five. Guess this isn't con
necting! The local fans will bo entertained
by the Seals and Senators next week.
Graham's crew have struck a losing
streak and the pitchors are faring
badly. At Los Angeles tho Hooli
gans will tncklo Dillon's crow for a
series of soven games. Wolvorton
mil take his charges to Portland to
open tho northern season.
Whon Mosor has his curvo ball
working it is n difficult shoot to
solve. Moscr works on tho style of
Jim Wiggs, nnd ho puts tremendous
force on bis break. Ho throws most
ly with a down-hand motion. His
pitching was in contrast to that of
Tozer, who relied mainly on under
hand ball.
Walter McCredie has shipped
Kratzburg to tho Stockton club of tho
California Stato lenguo for more
seasoning. McCrcdio has a full staff
in Garrett, Stcen, Krnpp, Seaton and
Ryan. 'Kratzburg pitched yesterday
for tho Slough City tribo and ho
defeated San Jose by tho scoro of 1
to 0. Ho allowed but four hits.
Frank Enstloy is a happy mortal
these days. Aftor weeks of wonry
waiting Frank's arm has rounded to
form and tho McKoosport honvor ox
pects to work noxt week against tho
Senators. Frank snapped a brissell
in his socket and for tho past fow
days ho has beon treated by a spe
cialist in Oakland.
Agnow, tho young Santa Clara
heavor, is to bo given n try-out by
tho Angols. This pitchor has a
world of ability and many nro pro
dieting a future for him in tho ranks
of organized baseball.
For continunl crabbing, McGroovy
assessed Catcher Orendorff with n
$5 fino. This silenced him.
Harkins pitched the tenth for the
Oaks. Daloy, the first man to face
hirri, responded with a drive to loft

Tho high wind blowing yeatordny
carried Delmas' hit in tho fourth
against tho right-fiold fonco. Only
