VANCOUVER, May 30—Cy Greenlaw went to the hill once too often on Sunday and, as a result, the Tacoma Tigers and Vancouver Capilanos broke even in a Western International League double-header.
He pitched to two batters in the first game and got credit for a 10-9 win, but in the nightcap, he surrendered four runs in two innings to take a 7-3 loss.
Greenlaw started the sixth inning of the nightcap by walking Bill Brenner, then giving up back-to-back doubles to Len Tran and Joe Kaney to produce two runs. In the seventh, a walk to Bill Reese, Charlie Mead's triple and Buddy Hjelmaa's long fly gave Vancouver another pair of runs to sew up the game.
Bob Snyder, the winning pitcher, also saw relief action in both games, though he didn't suffer a decision in the opener. Frank Higgins was handed his first loss of the year as he gave up a walk and a hit after getting an out in the eighth.
Larry Rossi tripled twice and singled to drive in four runs, while Jack Warren hit a solo homer and Charlie Mead a two-run shot for Vancouver.

BREMERTON, May 30—Jim Propst's wild toss in the seventh and last inning allowed two Bremerton runs to score and end the game, as the Bluejackets defeated the Victoria Athletics, 2-1, in the opener of a Sunday twin-bill. The boot tossed away his three-hit pitching performance.
Meanwhile, the Athletics managed a rare feat - four base hits in one inning without scoring.
Victoria came back to win the second game, 9-6.
