Narrows Down
By Associated Press
The Pacific Coast League pennant
contenders, or what's left of them,
swing into a shortened weekend
series today as the race takes on all
the aspects of last season’s walk
away.
For quite awhile, all except two
teams were in the thick of it, with
only four games separating the first
and sixth place clubs. Now there are
but two main contenders — Seattle
and Hollywood.
The Hollywoods, who have been
clinging grimly to second place, re
turn home tonight fresh from four
straight conquests of the slumping
Sacramento Solons. The Stars will
host Portland, which last night
dropped its fourth in a row to Los
Angeles.
Seattle moves across the bay to
San Francisco afier winning seven
straight from Oakland. The Seals
are in the midst of a winning
streak, too, having deposited the San
Diego-Padre:; in the cellar by win
ning five in a row.
The Rainierr, dispatched Oakland,
3-1, last night. Southpaw Earl John
son bested Johnny Vander Meer and
two other Oakland ttur.ers. The
tiiird one was his own o.d.sr brother,
Che; Jatacon.
After Hollywood finished dusting
riff Sacramento, 5-2, President Eddie
Mulligan" of the Solons announced
he and General Manager Charles
Graharrf 'would fly to the major
■league meeting in Detroit Sunuay
to “shop for immediate aid." Said
Mulligan*;' "VVe can use almost any
tiring . V. to help keep Sacramento
ih the {jrst division."
Fred,Baczewski, stylish Los Ang
eles lefmander, cranked up a four
hitter in blanking Portland, 4-0.
Outfielder Dee Fondy, sent down by
the parent Chicago Cubs to replace
Chuck Connors, helped things along
with g,,,two-run homer.
Shortstop Jim Brideweser equalled
a PCL* fielding mark as his San
Francisco Seals whipped San Diego,
2-0. i ,.
