San Francisco's pennant winners, tie Rube by virtue of their third straight playoff victory, 7-5 over the Holly- wcod Stars last night, are heavy favorites to enter the finals of the post season battle for the govern- or's Cup. But with Scarsella back in the linedup with the needed punch, the Oakland club advanced toward the playoff series by rapping out a 11-5 triumph over the Los Angeles Angels.
