Sunday, Junt 15, 1951 Seals Defeat Hollywood, 7-3 San Francisco (U.R) Man ager Tommy Heath nearly cleaned his bench Saturday to build a big eighth Inning fire of five runs to give the San Francisco Seals a 7 to 3 victory over the Hollywood Stars. Al Lien was credited with the win, his fifth of the year and his first after four straight defeats, even though he gave up 12 hits and his team mates boot ed the ball around something fierce in the seventh inning. Tommy Heath's c h arges lengthened their string of vic tories to two after dropping 10 games straight when they dis covered that a little wood on the ball works wonders in the score books. Trailing by one run in the eighth, the Seals exploded with a barrage of hits that drove the Star's reliefed "Red" Lynn scur rying for the sanctuary of the locker room.
