Beattie Tigers Close to First Division, Seattle Near Drop
Beattie’s Coast League club threatens promotion into the first division after recent defeats by the Seals leave Seattle tied for fourth with Portland. A win by Beattie today against the Tigers would lift the champions while dropping Seattle a notch. Seals won both meetings with Seattle late, including ninth inning dramatics. Harry Lunte may supplant Billy Orr at Sacramento. Lunte praised as a strong fielder and decent hitter. Paul Fittery notches his 10th win while Agnew bolsters San Francisco Seals. Philadelphia teams linger in the basement with uncertain attendance at local games.
