W. L. Pet] w. 1 -6:30 Portland . 7 1423 'Seattle ... T 4T 512 Oaklend 432 T last the fearful agony of the week's baseball series has come to a close. The bush league ag- gregation that represents San Francisco has won one game out of seven played. They were lucky to get that one and the fans are sorry the An- gels did not make clean sweep and capture the ‘vhole seven. The results yesterday were: Morning, Los Angeles 3, San Francisco 2; afternoon, Los Angeles 9, San Francisco 0. During the morning at Oakland Uncle Henry's alleged ball players made the best showing of the week against the An- gels. They managed to keep the result in doubt till the end. The southern swingers finally came through with the necessary tally and won out. It was a good game from the start and an error by Krug broke it up. But, oh! what a different aspect mark- ed the afternoon struggle. It looked like a contest between a Missouri cricket club and the Pittsburg ball nine. The home tossers were skirmishing around for a run for two hours and they have not scored it vet. Joe Corbett was the boy who kept them away from the plate. In all his carker in the league he never pitched ball as he did yesterday afternoon. Never on the home lot was a ball team sc .ompletely at the mercy of a pitcher as San Fran- cisco was at the mercy of the former Baltimore star. They never had a single chance to score a run. From the first inning on he had them buffaloed and although he. pitched many an easy one over the plate the Na- tives seemed afraid to hit at them. His curves and speed were about right and he had splendid control of the ball. The pitcher's box was not the only place in which Joe made good. Out of three times at bat he clouted the leather for a home run and a three-bagger. His homer came In the sixth and sailed far over the right fleld fence. In the next round, with Egan on first; Corbett landed on the ball and lined it out past the left fleld bleachers for the cleanest triple made on the grounds this season. Cutter began to get his bumps when the gamé was well started. The Angels were in the best of form and everything the youngster tossed up they hit hard. Runs began to accumulate in the second in- ning and when once they began to arrive the locals were powerless to stop them. The natives committed flve glaring er- ;‘ors, all of which allowed runs to come n, Pet. Los Ang..

The directors of the league say they will stop rowdy ball playing. They intend to make an exam- ple of Wheeler. It was necessary to shift Dillon to second base yesterday and Sples to first. The change did not affect the working of the team in the least, for both men played good ball in their positions. The score: “EBan Francisco— Los Angeles— AB.R.H.P.A AB.R.H.P.

PR SO San Francisco County eleven won the last match of the cricket season with the greatest ease yesterday from the Pacific Club on the ground at Webster street, Alameda. The Pacific captain lost the toss and his team was sent to the wickets first. Only two of the batsmen, Wilding (46, not out), and Langdale (29) proved able to do anything against the bowling of Petersen and Kortlang. Wilding played an excellent inning, going in first and carrying his bat almost without giving a chance. He was ably seconded by Lang- dale, but the rest of the team collapsed, the innings closing for 9 runs. Richardson put his men in in reverse order and'did not bat himself, but 219 runs were scored for the loss of eight wickets, Wilkes making 62, Kortlang 44 not out, and Johns 32. Nine of the Pacific te tried their hands with the ball, Bennion taking two wickets for 17 runs. The full details are shown iIn the table: PACIFIC CRICKET CLUB. A. W. Wilding, not out AR O e E. H.

Place to Their Credit One Victory for Challenge Trophies. — s The handicap doubles tennis tournament which has been in progress for the last three Sundays was completed yesterday. The honors were won by the Baker broth- ers—George and Neal—of Oakland. They met Harry Routh and Charles Dunlap, the other scratch team, on even terms and won easily. The clever brothers togk three straight sets. The outcome was evident from the start. TRe losers had won the cup once, and a victory for them would have put them in the lead. This is the first time the Baker brothers have competed. In the future they will play from back of scratch. Routh and Duniap played most of the balls to Neal Baker, while Routh was re- celver general on his side of the net. The score was 6—1, 6—4, 6—4. Outside of the tournament match the most interesting game was that betweer Will Allen and Clarence Griffin. Allen was tired from a hard match in the morning, but managed to defeat his younger op- ponent. All three sets went to deuce, the | first of which Grifin won. The following matches were played: p Allen beat Clarence Griffin, 5-7, 8-6, wil 7-5; E. P. Finnegan and E.

The two new asphalt courts recently lald out in the park were used for the first time yesterday. They are excellent courts and have a fine location. A large crowd turned out at the Call~ fornla’ courts and many good matches were played. The best match In singles was that between Wil Allen and Grant Smith. The latter was in flne form and | took Allen’s measure rather easily. In the | last two sets the ioser played an excellent game. Smith won the first three and Al- | len the fourth. H.

Mitchell | proved too strong for Chet Smith, whom he beat three stralght. W. S. MacGavin, | the veteran of the courts, showed that he | can still play some. He made Allen play | his best to win.
