FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 1950 TRIPLE PLAY IS MADE, P(L GAME; RAINIERS LOSE By ."M HUBBART (Associated Press Sportswriter) A triple play isn’t much to watch really. It's one of those baseball phenomena which comes perhaps one or twice in a season and hap- pens so fast you have to take the loudspeaker’s word for it. Take the one at Oakland last night, for instance. The Portl:md Beavers effected the Pacific Coast League’s first triple play of the sea- son and used it to wipe out a ninth inning Oakland rally and insure a. 9¢to 1 triumph. fOnly it went by so fast that few fans appreciated it. Billy Herman d George Metkovich of Oakland re on first and second via walks. en Earl Rapp slammed a line ive toward Portland second base- man Eddie Basinski. Basinski came. up with it, fired t&e ball to shortstop Joe Polich for two outs and Polich tossed to Mic- y Rocco at first to end the ball me. Simple. ‘This was just one phase of an ejening which also produced a four t shutout by Red Embree and two wmers with the bases loaded—all different ballparks. Embree, who came to the San iego Padres from the St. Louis ‘owns by way of Cleveland, set the s Angeles Angels down, 6 to 0, without allowing a man to reach skcond. He personally contributed a rbn to the San Diego cause, too, with a sixth inning single. iThe Hollywood Stars once again were shellacking the hapless Seattle Rainiers. #It was Seattle’s 13th loss in 14 starts. Manager Paul Richards jug- gled his batting order and lineup in v?mlesnle fashion last night, fig- uring things couldn’t get much worse. They did, though. Hollywood Won by 15 to 4 in a performance bellished with a seven run eighth ifining and Frank Kelleher’s pinen hit homer with the bases full in the fifth. At Sacramento, Les Fleming’s ninth inning roundtripper with the sécks loaded gave the San Fran- cisco Seals an 8 to 5 victory over cramento FIGHT DOPE {One fight last night and it was knockout as follows: LiAt Scranton, Pa—Pat Comiskey, Paterson, N.J., knocked out Art i, 188, New York, 7.

The Cards were the opposition. And as can be guessed, Murry clipped the Red- birds’ wings in, pitching the Pi- rates to an easy 8-4 triumph. That was the only game played in the National League. The rest were postponed because of rain and cold weather. Inclement weather also cut the American League’s ac- tivities to one game. In that one, Detroit again nipped the Indians in Cleveland, this time by 5-4. Dickson stemmed his former mates with six hits including Stan Musial’s second home run of the season. Ted Gray went the route for the Tigers, limiting the Indians to six hits for Detroit's second straight one-run margin victory over Cleve- land. Manager Lou Boudreau of the In- dians was hit on the left elbow while batting in the ninth inning 2 and left the game. The Tribe, trailing 5-2 in the ninth, made it close when rookie Al Rosen clouted a four-bagger with cne on, UMPIRE IS HIT BY . BALL, DOUBLE SWAT BY PLAYER, NIPPED OKLAHOMA CITY, April 21—P —Baseball umpires traditionally are called robbers. Texas League Umpire Mike Wii- liamson actually was one here last night. Tulsa pinch-hitter Carl Kolosna hit a hot grounder down the third base line for a hit. The ball struck the portly out-caller in the back. While third baseman Fred Marsh searched madly for the ball, Wil- liamson began a shimmying act. Finally the ball dropped out. It had lodged under his coat. Bewildered, Kolosna held first, afraid to try for second. Even the losing manager, Al Vin- cent, had to laugh. Kolosna wasn’t so happy. It rob- bed him of a*double. Oklahoma Clty won_ 9-2.
