ITHURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1951 TOPPERS, PC LEAGUE, LOSE GAMES By Associated Press Walk a man and he'll beat you s Bob Feller once said, and Right- hander Frank Nelson of the Sacra- fnento Solons has absorbed this wis- dom the hard way. With one out in the 11th inning [Nelson walked a man with the bases loaded in the Pacific Coast League headliner at San Diego last night hereby causing a 3-2 Padre victory. Only the fact that the other first division teams also suffered defeats kept the Solons from losing ground ey're still on top by a half game Portland broke a scoreless tie by collécting six unearned runs in the seventh inning and beating the second place Seattle Rainiers, 8-3 (while Los Angeles moved into a 3- way tie for fourth with a 6-3 win over Oakland. Lowly San Francisco ran its win- ning streak to four straight by a 4-3 conquest of the third place Hol- lywood Stars. Charlie Schanz was the victim of Portland’s six run inning, featuring a two-run homer by Beaver Pitcher Lyman Linde. An error by George Vico, erstwhile Seattle first baseman transferred to third for last night's game, set the stage for the Rainier’s down- fall. Schanz, who had given up only one hit in 6 2/3 innings, walked Joe Brovia after he had fanned two men in the seventh. Don White fol- lowed Brovia to the plate and tapped to Vico who fumbled the ball. Frank Austin then singled to center, scor- ing Grovia, Joe Rossi doubled to center, scoring White and Austin. Cal MclIrvin singled home Rossi and Linde planted the two-run homer in the left field bleachers. PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE L. Pet. 549 542 514 507 507 507 471 400 Sacramento Solons Seattle Rainiers .
