PC LEAGUE SWINGS
INTO PLAY TONIGHT;
FIGHT FOR PLACES
By Associated Press
The battle for third place waxed
warm as full-scale firing resumes
tonight on the Pacific Coast League
front.
fkpm Sacramento, the third place
inqjrnbent, to Portland, in sixth, is
a matter of a mere two games. In
between are sandwiched Oakland
and ’ Los Angeles. This chummy
foursome may be even closer when
the present series expire.
Bni there is little room for doubt
at f!i!' top or the bottom. Seattle
will try to extend its four game lead
nt Stin Francisco. Hollywood strives
to improve its runnerup position at
Portland’s expense.
At the other end. San Francisco
will seek to pull away from San
Diego's cellar bunch. The Seals are
lioAv.cnjoying a 21 • -game budge on
the Padres in the rarified air of
seventh place.
The Padres did nothing at all to
help their cause last night, bowdng
to Oakland, 10-1. in the only con
test scheduled.
Chrt Johnson yielded 10 walk,
hut only seven hits as he went all
the -way to his sixth win. He has
lost 16.
