SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 1950 PCCRANKERS HEADING FOR NO-HITTERS By JIM HUBBART (Associated Press Sportswriter) The Pacific Coast League hasn't {been honored by a full grown no- i hit, no-run game in three years, | but the latest pitching performances ||ndlcate that the law of averages is baund to catch somebody this sea- { { of today, the likeliest looking | didates are Ben Wade of Holly- 00d, Al Lien of San Francisco and ph Hamner of Los Angeles. ese gentlemen were the principals three—count ’‘em, three—shus- uts_last night, one of which had rfect game written all over it lor nearly eight innings. The embroidered crying towel s to Wade, 27-year-old right Shander who won 18 for Nashville t year. He retired 23 Seattle bat- s in a row before the whammy, onified by Lonnie Frey, got im for a single with two away in e eighth. It was the closest anybody had ome to a regulation no-hitter since yne, who tripled in the ninth, tc each first base. It was Wade’s sec- nd shutout. Hollywood won the two hitter by 7 to 0, handing the singing Rainiers their 14th defeat in 15 starts and their fifth goose-egging. It was Hollywood’s fourth shutout victory this season. Wade's feat shaded only slightly that of Al Lien. The San Francisco veteran took 10 innings to blank Sacramento, 2 to 0, with another ‘ two hitter—and he scored the win- | ning run. He was nicked for singles : in the third and tenth innings. Hamner, the other shutout im- \pre*sano set the second place San \Dlego Padres down, 10 to 0, with a | three hitter. In last night's other game, Oak- ,land fashioned a plain 6 to 4 triumph over Portland. Ll()(Al ELKS ARE | AHEAD IN BOWL . WITH SKAGWAY | Juneau Elks’ top ten bowlers haye ‘l)eon able to keep Skagways main | task force from getting' into the !:rophy case, at least as far as Fri- | day night bowling was concerned. | The last ball tossed found the Ju- neau Elks ahead by a 1252 pin mar- gin. Today will find the Skagway boys putting into play all their heavy stuff and the Juneau Elks are look- ten, although ahead, appear to be breaking under the strain. All in all, Friday found many ex- ing for replacements as the top|§{ cellent shots being made and spec- tators more than once stood with tenseness written on their faces as the fifth or sixth strike in a roll faced the bowler, The Skagway bowlers are wonder- ful sports and have never for one moment allowed Juneau to rest oi any margin. Today should be as ‘nteresting in Juneau as the big ABC tournament. WIL GAMES Final scores of games played yes- Tacoma 8, Tri-City 11. Vancouver 1, Salem 2. Victoria 5, Wenatchee 8.
