Sixty-Seven Consecutive Inninqs
Without Having Been Scored

Portland Goes Baseball Mad
Last Seven Games Shutouts.
PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 14. Six-
ly-scvon consecutive innings without
liming been scored against, nnd tho
end is not yet.
This was the record set by the
Portland team of the Pacific coast
league. Portland's baseball popula
tion, en muFpe, this afternoon filed
into the ball park to sec how much
further the team can go against the
Los Angeles- team.
The fans aro confident that at least
three more Innings can be played
without a score against the Beavers.
This would place tho record at 70, or
eight better than the existing world's
record of 62, made by Plttaburg, In
1907. Should Los Angeles score In
the first inning, the fans believe that
the record already set will Btand for
a long time.
Tho last seven games have been
shutouts for Portland. In the game
of OctoLer fithc last In. 'which. a.run
was scored, Sacramento put ono over
Jn the fifth Inning, tho only fun: for
them during the game. Pltchere
Greeg, Steen and Krapp have been
largely responsible for tho Beavers'
wonderful showing, but the team as
a whole has been playing almost er
rorless ball.
