RAINIERS | } LOSE OUT, | 5 ERRORS By HERB WILHOIT (Associated Press Sportswriter) Look up and down the Pacific Coast League today and you'll find the excitement in Portland. There the busy Beavers are chew- ing dway at the barrier between their sixth place spot and the extra cash they’ll earn if they climb intc the first division. And if the Beavers continue their winning streak, now 11 straight games, it'll be hard to keep 'em out of the top four. San Franciscc couldn’t stop them last night, Port- land _winning two abbreviatec games, 4-3 in seven innings anc 5-0 in the nightcap called after six innings by the ‘league curfew rule. That cavorting left Portland only a game behind fifth place San Fran- cisco, two back of fourth-place Se- attle and five in arrears to thirc place Hollywood. Other results: Oakland shavec Sacramento 3-2 in a 10-inning day game; San Diego trimmed the fad- ing Hollywood Stars 7-5, and Lo: Angeles smacked Seattle 8-3. The powerful bat of .Oakland’ Earl Rapp won again for the league leaders. He swatted his 21st home: in the 10th for the victory. He has now hit in 18 consecutive games Sacramento’s Marv Williams hac tied the count with a homer in the ninth. Five Seattle errors practically handed their game to Los Angeles The Angels counted all their run: off starter Skinny Brown. He wa: relieved in the seventh by Dewey Soriano, righthander purchased last night by Seattle to strengthen the Rainiers’ bid for a first divisior spot. Soriano has been President and occasional pitcher of the Yakims club in the Western Internationa League where he won pennants the last two years.

They trailed by 5-4 until the eighth, when they| won the game with a two-run splurge against Bob Hooper. Ed Ford, 21-year-old rookie left-| hander, stopped the White Sox on three hits in hanging up his eighth victory without a loss for the Yan- kees.
