April 'J:i.- -l.-.u : G' list a homed his way into the hc-i ' ; of the Portland lana today, when I drive with a man oo ahoal nl' li i m landed in the roar row ot' p ri t -i in r.ii left fiel-l bleui'lirvs. breaking tin ri ; ing tie. Tho final M-oro irn to 1 :n favor of Portland. Guisto ha the reputation of Xv w slugger in spite of his youth and liuuL-l experience, hut no one, expected him to turn the trick in the eighth, when thoc were two men out nnd Vaughn on fir--!. Kilts .lohiiPon hrd liren pit.-hino: t'u.in b;ill. so far as bits we e t-nncei nrd. in to this point, but they y 11 seem 1 1 In-.'; alike to -Guisto. Houck Is There. Myron llourk, formerly with the Athletics, Ath-letics, whom the MeCrodip1 pi'-ked u; os a free agent this spring and who vw, nearly dropped before the season st;t 'ted. pitched the best game of ball seen her.' this year. While he wns touched 'or eight hits, lie kept them all scutfr.-d aud the only run seorcd off him was in the second, when bo passed Spencer, the first man up, aud Johnson sacrifice !. Doane, a Portland star until traded for Carlisle last year, shoved a knife inlo MeCredie's vitals when he doubled aloi-- tho left field foul liuo, scoring K;iemvi. Vernon needed this run, as Poitlirid : had scored once in the second, when j there were ail kinds of happenings j thrown into the frame. For instance. ) Guisto, tho first man up, was passed j and Fisher sacrificed. Spencer made a i high throw to second, trying to eath ' Guisto napping, and the big fellow went. on to third, whence he scored uu a wild pitch. Decided in Eighth. From this point until the eighth neither neith-er team was able to score, although both had several chances, nut the rival pitchers tightened up whenever thens were men on the sacks. Then cam th- eighth, when Vaughn got on, Tfader booting boot-ing his drive. Isixon saerifb-ed and Bouthwortta flied to Doane. Guisto did the rest. Vernon went out in one. two, three order in the ninth. It was aii especially tough g;nn for Johnson to lose, as he held the l.ieaveM to five hits. 3Ie was not responsible for an' of the Portland runs, for, with perfect support, Guisto wouJd ne er have come to the plate in the eighth. This was tho first game of the local season in which Portland wasn't forced to taJte its last turn n't hot. as in tiin lone victory over Salt Lake the contest went into extra innings. President MeCredie doesn't expert definite word as to whether Kodgers h coming until next "Wednesday. He ha also been notifiod by Garry ' Herrmann, national commission chairman, that he may play Roche, protested bv the si. Louis Nationals, until he has taken up the matter with the. f'ards and de.-M. i to whom Roche belongs. VKRXON. B. ri. n. I'ij. a r; roa.ne. rf.
