Show ANGELIC IDOL IS SHATTERED By Bffl 11 For Once Invincible Ryan Is Outpitched ; Defeat Momentarily Staves Off Pennant Cinch. Special to The Tribune. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 20. Portland today won a ball game from Los Angeles, An-geles, which, while true, is not. of great importance. I ncid en tally, by beating I the Angola, 3 to 1, the Beavers pre-i pre-i vented Los Angeles from nailing the j pennant, because at the same time the I Oaks were driving another spike into j Vernon's championship coffin. ! By the. process of attrition the situ-i situ-i atiou has narrowed to this: Lob An-j An-j gcles needs only one more game to win, even should Vernon take all its remaining contests, while Los Angeles will finish in front if it loses all its remaining contests and Vernon loses only one. There are ten games remaining remain-ing to be played. The Angels failed to grasp today's opportunity, mainly because Jlagerman outpitched Ryan. Maggert made a lot more money than either of the ball clubs. After he made a star ca.tch in the sixth inning some of the fans so far forgot themselves as to heave approximately ap-proximately $3 at him. Harl, while by no means mouev mad, picked up the mazuma with the able aid of - friends on their hands and knees to help Ten cents of the mouey thrown remains unaccounted un-accounted for. Hagerman was wild and issued eight walks, and yet the Angels were unable to cash any of these passes, Ryan didn't act natural. He passed five and was hit nine times. Three of these passes were followed b' convenient singles. sin-gles. In the eighth Chance yanked Ryan for a pinch hitter. Ryan pitched his way out in the first after three singles, two of them scratches, had filled the bases. In the second he was not so fortunate. He walked Rodgers and Williams right off the reel. Bassler made a bad peg to first, both men moving mov-ing up a base. Hagerman fanned. Evans scored both runners with a single sin-gle to right. He was forced by Vaughn, who himself was forced. Afaggert cut off a run in the sixth, turning a budding triple into a twin put out. Rodgers was on first when Williams walloped a fly into deep right center. Maggert hiked back and pulled the ball down while running at nigh speed. Heaving the ball to Koerner, be doubled Rodgers, who was going through all the motions of scoring. Portland got its other run in the seventh sev-enth on a walk for Evans, who went to third on Vaughn's single and counted on South worth "a sacrifice fly. The Angels escaped a goose-egging with one in the fifth. Koerner singled, advanced to third on McLarry's double and scored when Hagerman heaved over a wild nitch. PORTLAND. AB. R. H. PO. A. E.
