A's Slug Out Win Over Leaders
SPOKANE, August 2 - Led by speedy John Hooper, with two singles and a triple, and Leo Righetti, who batted in three with a pair of timely singles, the Victoria Athletics upset the Spokane Indians 12-8 before almost 4,100 fans.
After scoring once in the first and adding three in the fourth to break a 1-1 deadlock, the Victorians counted seven times in the fifth as they combined four walks and four singles with a pair of doubles.
Dick Mitchell ran into trouble in the seventh when he walked four Indians and the A's kicked in with a pair of boots to bring in six runs. Manager Ted Norbert rushed Len Kasparovitch to the rescue and the big righthander easily protected the lead.

Caps take Pair
VANCOUVER, Aug. 2 - Frank Mullens continued to provide a hot bat for the Vancouver Capilanos on Saturday, as they swept the Yakima Stars 8-2 and 8-5, in a Western International League double header.
Mullens crashed out a three-run four-bagger in the first inning of the first game, which was more than enough to enable Bob Snyder to register his tenth win.
Snyder received ample assistance from Paul Carpenter and Bob Stumpf, who both drove in a pair of runs.
Southpaw Jim Hedgecock throttled the Stars in the nightcap, limiting them to four hits. He weakened in the last two innings, but only one of the five runs he surrendered was earned.
Hedgecock clubbed a Max Strait fastball over the right field screen in the seventh for a run.
