Beavers, Solons Split Sharply as Seattle Climbs
Portland and Seattle split a doubleheader with strong defensive plays and errant infield work. Walter Genin made a spectacular running catch for Portland, while Seattle edged ahead in the second game after Portland tied it late. Rod Mar contributed a key grounder that helped a double play, but Seattle’s infield miscues kept the drama high and kept the pennant race tight.
