PACE EIGHT Sons Almost Clinch Flag In Weed Rout Visitors Spotted Five Runs Before Locals Win, 20-9 A barrage of 19 fence-rattling base hits virtually gave the Klam ath Bona the season's flag in the Northern California baseball league a the Sons drubbed Weed SO to 9 Rt Recreation field .esterday after noon. The Bona now lead Weed by two full games and have only three games to go. Hero of yesterday's hit parade was Fran Miller, who had four for Jour Including a home run and a double. He knocked in five runs and scored three times. Earl Brooks and Hi Hatfield each collected four hits. Ray Brown and Elby Mazronl had three blngles for Weed. Lefty Bert Krohn relieved Clyde Carlstrom in the flit frame for Klamath, when the visitors were tearing the cover off the ball to Jump off to a five-run lead, and worked the rest of the game to win. In that half-inning Clyde walked two, had an error behind him and gave up three hits, including Jim Truzza's triple, before he decided he'd had enough and waved Krohn in. Bert's first pitch was a wild one and Fruzza scored, but Krohn got the side out without further damage. The Sons took over the lead in their half of the first by pounding the righthanded slants of Young Bob Trestler until 11 men had batted and six runs came across. In that ruckus Ernie Bishop caught Trestler taking too much windup and swiped home. A double steal and overthrow at second let Hat field get In with the tying run, and Krohn slapped a single into center to put Klamath ahead, 6-5. Klamath continued the rampage In the second frame when Bishop walked, scored on Hatfield's double and Hatfield scored on Jim Bocchi's triple to center. In the third the Pons scored one more time, and Weed came back in its half of the fourth to start hitting Krohn. Brown's triple was the big blow. The Sons sewed the game up In the fifth with a five-run Wait highlighted by Miller's poke over the right field wall with two aboard. Weed was never again In shouting distance of the lead. Talmadgo Barron,, the Weed youngster who has been signed for the Yankee farm system, hurled the eighth inning and showed con siderable steam but little control. He gave up one hit, walked- four and fanned two. Jim Fruzza took the hill for Weed In the third inning but was as hard hit as was Trestler. Krohn fanned four and allowed only one pass and 10 hits for his second straight NoCal league vic tory. -v. BOX SCORE: wr.uu , . ; ,., AB K Brown, 2b 5 2 H O 3 1 0 2 3 3 GtoddI.
