Visions of A twu-liit shutout vii-tory entertained en-tertained by Rube Evans and the other Saints wore rudely shattered shat-tered when tlio Tigers took advantage advan-tage of the Salt Lake southpaw's lapse and shot, three runs aeross tho plato in the ninth on two hit batsmen and t four hits, giving the Vernon elub its ; sceond vietory of tho scries, 3 to 2. The struggle vw.s oi'c ui me gteatest pitching duels seen on the loi-nl lot this year mid was. a wf-lcn'ne el'"'!' to Ihe few loyal ones after the bush exhibitions ex-hibitions of the past two days. I'M Hovlik, wiio was scheduled to receive re-ceive his walking itapers last week, came out today anil startled the populace popu-lace as well as his mates by hurling sunerb ball. He allowed four hits ami only one of the Saint runs was earned, the other being scored on a wild fling by Callahan. Rube Wonder Temporarily. Rube Evans was a pitching wonder for eight frames. In the third, Mike Simon got the first Vernon hit and Walter Donne got an infield bingle in tho sixth. These two hits were the only safeties Rube yielded until the fatal fa-tal ninth. Some say Kube became exhausted ex-hausted bv running around the bases in the eighth, .lint the only possible, solution so-lution of the affair is that he got his second wind too soon and this disappeared disap-peared in the. ninth. Tho two clubs each made a pair of niisplays and raised their fielding average aver-age to almost normal. The Saints g:if th-ir first run right off the reel. With Toliin and Rath out, Crandall walked. Ryan smacked the first hall to center for two bases anil Karl crossed the plate. Hannah followed fol-lowed with a walk, but Quinlau was an infield out. Rube was in hot, water in the fifth. Galloway flied to Quinlan. Callahan hit to Rath, who booted Simon w-as an infield out. but Hovlik lived on Butler's But-ler's fumble. This set the- stage for an attempted double steal and Callahan was nipped at. the plate on a perfect return by Gislason. Saints Get Another. In the eighth the Saints got their last run. Butler went out. Callahan threw wild on Evans's roller and Rube went, to second. Tobiu beat out a "dump" down the first. base line, Evans going to third. Rath flied to Daley and Evans came home after the catch. In the ninth Snorlgrass and Stovall were hit with pitched balls. Doane filled the sacks by beating out a tap. Daley sent Snodgrass in with another infield hit. Vaughn had three balls and no strikes when he tapped out another teaser on which Stovall tied the score. Doane went in when Jim Galloway got one out of the infield to right. Tommy Quinlan went into the spotlight spot-light today by racing to the right field fence and pulling down Hovlik 's terrific, ter-rific, drive with Simon on the paths. It looked like a sure double.
