- SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER OAKLAND HAS 2-GAME LEAD, P. C. LEAGUE {By The Associated Press) Sacramento Manager Joe Orengo had a change of heart today af- ter protesting last night's crucial centest with Oakland in the Coast League pennant chase. Orengo withdrew his objections several hours after the game’s fin- ish because he was concerned with only one run. Since the Oaks won by two runs, 8-6, there was no point in continuing the beef. The victory keeps the Acorns two games ahead of San Fran- cisco. In the disputed eighth, Oakland's Les Scarsella hit a long drive with two men on. Center fielder Jim Warner caught the ball.
