Oct. 16 Universal . San Francisco is the 1928 champion of the Pacific Coast league. The Seals won that honor for their home city today by defeating the Sacramento Senators, 9 to 5, and em'.ng the championship series in their favor, four games to two. The powerful hitting ability of Nick Wilitself by liams' group manifested simply outpunching and outpitching the Solons. The final game was keen enough g croud, but for the large the competition ended in the seventh when the entire San Francisco batting order came up to the plate and Dick Moudy, who started a five-ru- n rally, finished: Moudy. by the way, is the real pitching hero of the title series. He stopped the Senators Sunday and today won his second game in as many days, when he relieved the peerless butch Ruether and halted ambitions of the Sacramentons. even after the Seals had gone to the front by four runs. Moudy may not have been a wonderful hurler in the league's records, but he certainly figg in San ured in the pennant-flyinFrancisco the present year. With thp Seals on thp rear of a 4 Uo 5 score, the pennant was won in the seventh inning when the salt water representatives rang up five runs against the inlanders. Gould had been pitching fair ball. He opened the seventh by cracking Moudy on the wrist with a pitched bail. Then Roy Johnson, who fanned twice during the combat, drove a home run over the right field fence with plenty to spare.
