Oakland opens at home today, entertaining Portland; the San Francisco makes its first trip to Los Angeles to meet Vernon, and Los Angeles arrives to open the series at Majestic park at 2.30 this afternoon ajiaiust the Utcs. Oakland was more successful than Portland in the opening" series, winning four and losing two at Salt Lake while the Beavers were winning 'three and losinsr four to San Francisco; San Francisco was far better off than Vernon, which won two and lost five to the Angels. How the Dope Looks Just Now. Without any intention of making predictions' on the series proposition as it appears for the coming week, Oakland, San Francisco and Los Angeles appear to have it over Portland, Vernon and Salt Lake, respectively. Lake series should draw big at the gate. loeally the Los Angeles-Sal- t this. There are many reasons for First, the Angels were runners up last were fall for second place and barely nosed out in the last few days by Blank's Ftes. A?ain, the Angels are led this year by Frank Chance, former manager of the Chicago National league champions, who is making his debut in minor league baseball. Further, the Angels, while losing their entire infield, except at first, will show many new faws, and the newcomers have reputations as heavy hitters. The Seraphs are eager to equal or better the showing of the Oaks here, and will exert every effort to do so. Angel Pitching Staff Problem. Even Chance himself knows comparatively little about his pitching1 staff, and that is the reason he is bringing the entire crew along. Of the eight on hand, four are veterans and the other quartet newcomers. Manager Cliff .Blankenship is prepared to meet the onslaught of the slugging Seraphs as best ho can, pending strengthening measures which are now proceeding as rapidly as possible. The umpires today will be William Guthrie and Ed Finney. Upon invitation of the officials of the intermountain branch of the A. A.
