BREMERTON, June 29—Banging out 13 hits from the offerings of Joe Sullivan, ex-major league southpaw, Victoria Athletics tonight evened their current series with Bremerton Bluejackets by scoring a 5-3 victory here.
Although he had to be relieved by Joe Blankenship in the eighth inning, lefthander Jim Propst gained credit for his fifth win of the season as the A's pecked away at Sullivan to take and maintain an early lead.
Jack Palmer and Babe Jensen led the assault, each picking up three hits. Palmer opened the scoring by crashing out his tenth home run in the fifth inning. He also figured prominently in the two-run third frame. With two away, Lou Kubiak singled and scored on Palmer's double. Wilson then plated Palmer with another single.
After Bremerton scored twice in the fourth, Victoria added single runs in the fifth and eighth and held off two late rallies. The Tars scored once in the eighth and had the tying run on the bags in the ninth when Blankenship forced pinch-hitter Keith Simon to ground out.
