Rane will ba in town Friday to open a threa-gama series. Br Hank Graan It Is an old adage in base ball but it certainly held true out at the fairgrounds last night "A baseball game is never over until the last man is out" and result was that a large majority of the fans were not present when the Medford Rogues won, 12 to 11. The Pittsburg Diamonds were ousted from a triple tie with the Rogues and Redding for second place and today Medford holds second spot alone on the basis of percentage points. -Two Man Out Two men were out in that eight-run eighth inning last night when the winning run over the Diamonds was scored. Marc Guglielmo, pinch hitting for Pitcher LaVerre Herrmann, opened that stanza with a line single to left. Jack Cooney struck out and John Popovich flied to center. However, the Rogues were not to be denied as Bob Haddock, Player-Manager Tommy Nelson and Don Williams singled in suc cession. That was all for starting Pitcher Jack Hemphill and Char lie Souza took over mound du ties. Bolen Walks Again Al Bolen drew his fourth walk of the evening as first man to face Souza. Bill Adams doubled to right center and Milt Martin drew a pass to send Souza to the showers. Gene Valentine, with a season record of five wins and no losses, then hurled for Pittsburg. Gleason. pinch hitting for Guglielmo who had given way to Glen Hyatt as a pinch runner, drew a walk and so did Cooney up for the second time. Popovich then came through with a solid single to left scoring Gleason and Martin with the tying and win ning runs. Lloyd Jones took over mound duties for the Rogues in the ninth and set the Diamonds down in order on 10 pitched balls. Herrmann was winning pitcher and Valentine loser. Adams Catch Tops Adams made a one-hand catch of a dipping drive curving away from him off the bat of Charlie Malemberg in the second inning after running the proverbial country mile into deep right cen ter.for the best fielding gem by Meilford. The Diamonds had gone ahead in the fourth stanza, 8 to 2, on two singles, two doubles, a triple and two Medford errors for six Pittsburg runs.
