SOME RANDOM SHOTS AT
THE BASEBALL SITUATION
By WILLIAM BYRNE.
(Baseball Writer for The Memphis Commer
cial'AppraM
It*a an awfully nice thing to travel with
n !>n!l team that la knocking tar out of
Hub* In the ritlra visited. It's another
thing to travel with n losing club.
But when you got on the road with a
small baud of earnest workers whose losses
of the day liefore are buried with the past
and nil thoughts turn to the task laid out
the present day’s work, there's a feel
ing akin to brotherly love for the boys
working hard to win.
The recent losses encountered by Babb's
lK»ys on the road are not to lie woudered nt.
There never waa a team from the (Hants
down, nor yet a player of even the
IsOjole or Wagucr type, that didn’t have, n
dark day. But the silver lining of dull
losing clouds Is iMMind to make Its nppenr-
ann* nt the proper time.
On Southern diamonds there are two fields
that stand oat preeminent, Piedmont park
nnd lied Kim park arc the two. Sodded
Infield end grassy outfield present pleasing
and restful pictures to the tired ball play
ers’ eyes nnd the glare of a burning sun Is
offset. Ollier diamonds around the circuit
are "sktuued" and the suu Is mirrored In
the white rands nboost as vividly aa It
would Ik* In n looking glass.
The heat nnd glare worries playera from
Atlanta nnd Memphis who ore used to their
emerald surroundings. But there are other
drnwlmcka more serious and one In par
ticular.
