Eddie Walsh Has Made
Great Pitching Record
The remarkable, winning spurt of the
Chicago White Sox In the American
League, though It has not yet terminated,
already eclipses anything In this line dur
ing the present year, snd will go down
ns one of the greatest streaks of victo
ries In the history of IniscIniII.
Chicago's record beginning with July 29,
when It started Its wonderful streak. Is
as follows: • W011 23, lost 1, tied 1. Nine
teen victories hare been successive.
Thla continued winning has carried the
White Sox from fourth imsltlon, where
they were hardly considered a pennant pos
sibility, Into first place, with a ten-gntue
lend over the Athletics, their nearest ri
vals.
While the greater number of their games
have Iwen won on the home grounds,
where they have always been considered
almost Invincible, they have yet to lose
their first game on the present trip east,
haring to date played eight.
The wonderful upwnnl flight of the Sox
began on their return front their last
eastern trip on July 29, after they had suf
fered severely at the hands of their east
ern rivals. In Philadelphia, they fell vic
tims to the Athletics to the extent of five
gnines out of six, and their pennaut
■bailees appeared to lie squelched.
4 Hack on their home grounds, they ml
fled and took four games from Washing
ton. This was followed by a defeat at
the hands of Boston.
Comlskcy's men regained their stride
after this set-back, and. with the excep
tion of a 0-0 tie Inst week In Chicago,
have won every contest.
One of the most remarkable features of
the winning streak Is the fact ,hnt *he
Chicago team Is hitting very poorly; In
fact, ranks Inst In the league. This, how
ever. Is offset by their fine fielding and base
running, nnd the excctleut work of the
pitchers.
Though White, Owen nnd Patterson have
contributed greatly to the string of suc
cesses, the greatest work has been done
by Walsh.
Thla pitcher hns not met with a defeat
since June, nnd of the twenty-three victo
ries, he hns captured eight, more than a
third of the number’’.
He has not allowed his opponents a run
In five of these games, In two only a sin
gle run, and In the other three.
In a contest ugalust Boston on August
he allowed Collins' men but one hit.

MULL BENCHED
BYKAVANAUGH
Just as was doped out In The Georgian
of Thursday afternoon. Manager iHunlnlck
Mullanry, the moat popular manager
the Southern League, has been suspended
by Knvanatigb. president of the league,
ns a result of his alleged aasanlt on Hhus-
fer.
of course. The Georgian was not right
there on the ball field, nnd did not i
the encounter, but. Judging from the m
reports sent out from the Crescent CIV*.
Mullnitey didnt' com* within 20 feet of
the tender umps.
Variegated Dope Drops
From Sporting Sources
flie two Chicago teams continue their vic
torious march, nnd It begins to sppesr that
Grnntlnnd Rice's prediction, made nearly a
month ago, will be realised to the letter.
The former Atlanta sporting scribe, who
Is now doing stunts for The Cleveland
News, was about the first sporting writer In
the country to come out with the unhedged
prediction that Chicago would this fall
boast two pennant winners.
Now, a month later, It Is practically Im
possible for either the Spuds or ths White
Sox to lose. The American League team
Thursday won Its nineteenth consecutive
game, and Is getting pretty clone to the or
ganised baseball record for straight wins.
The National league team Is nearly 100
points ahead of Pittsburg and New York,
nnd Is going faster than any other club la
the longue.
Neither will ever be headed.
The double win for Chicago will do or
ganised baseball a lot of good. It has bsen
nearly twenty years since the Chicago
National club won a pennant, and six years
Nlnce Clark Griffith won for Chicago In
the then new American League.
Both Cotnlskey nnd Frank Chance have
done great work. Both are clean, straight
forward baseball players and neither has
tolerated Ihe dirty tactics that Re
draw has consistently used. The defeat of
the latter will hurt the Nattoual League
finances a little, but It will be good for
•4 baseball.
Local fandom hare had a nice Juicy tasty
of Hhuster'* nldllty to tell the truth, and
|fs s 20 to 1 shot that Mullaner didn't
come within 46 feet of the Judge of ploy.
And the Kwrnrmugh Frank combination
biased out ‘n nil Its glory and yellow*
nee* when Knvanangb ordered Mull ana-
pended without er ~
so much as sn In-
BreJtensteln got an unusually lmd dose.
Billy Hmltli didn't get but ten dnys for
assaulting Umpire Hhuster at Atlanta, while
Breltenstelu, who was himself nit umpire
at the time, got fifteen days for resent
ing what he considered an Insult from
Carey. President Havana ugh ordered
Breltenstelu suspended for ten days, but
he had been Informed thnt Manager Frank
had already given the local twlrler five
daya off with n $26 fine attached, so the
additional ten days made It pretty hard
on Breltenstctn, who had to suffer greatly
for a trivial offense.—New Orleuus Item.
While everything went smoothly for the
visitors, even the grounders tmundlng Intq
Jordan's and Morse's pockets on occasions
to their left snd right, they were entitled
to consideration nnd respect from nil fair-
minded people, for with s crlpplel line-up
they laughed at all local attempt! to rfdl-
rule and even nerved thcniaelvea Into hur-
rahlng the good old-fashioned rooters on
the bleachers, Jordan especially making
life miserable for several sons of the sun
god by tantalising motions to the score
Imard with Its Inning record of current
happenings. It wns sweet revenge for the
Georgians, who have been knocked ont of
the nice for the pennant on home grounds
by our same Memphll who won a great
majority of games over In Ifokcsmlthtown.
—Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
Althongh today Is one one for rest. Man
ager Llebhardt of the Llebhardts nnd
Manager Huggs of the Suggses will call
m< miters of their tenma together for the
first preliminary practice for the game on
September 16. Carey will also engage a
trainer for hla sprint match with Ed Hurl-
hurt for the turtle championship on the
same date, and Ed llnrihiirt will put
In time practicing the get-away from the
crack of the pistol, such custom Itelng the
regulation method used In starting all
aprlnts.—Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
Yesterday Milo Rtratton. the Pelican
catcher, caught his one hundred nnd first
game. He Is easily one of the most re
liable Itnck stops In the league and In the
stretch la giving the local club splendid
service.—New Orleans Item.
Is Billy Smith a manager? We bet the
Atlnnta directors do not think so.—Mont
gouiery Journal.
A glance at the league standing lends one
to believe Atlnnta Is some points ahead of
Montgomery. Address your attentions to
Mullnney, Ik>.—Atlanta Georgian.
We did rub It Into Atlanta a little hard
the Inst time. Beg pardon.—Montgomery
Journal.
Why Rroiither* was put out of the game
Is a question thnt the fans are asking. Per
haps Big league Umpire Hhuster limy tell.
Ask hliu.—New Orleans States.
MORE ROASTS
FOR SHUSTER
Is acting In the rapacity of nmplre, may
ult a player and use profane language
In the presence of wonted spectators. Just
because the said Intoxicated player Is a
member of the New Orleans club.
But was Manager Multaney feased when
he got notice of his suspension. Not he.
The big Irishman with a sit that la born

Hiya the sapient scHIh* of The New Or
leans Item:
"In one thing we are willing to agree
with the tempestuous baseball scribes of
Atlanta:
“That 8huater la the aeaaon's Joke aa an
umpire.
"He Is the, urops whom Manager Smith
assaulted when the official called a game
In thnt city Itefore Smith thought It was
dark enough. Smith handled Shuster pret
ty roughly, nnd was generally condemned
for It. but since Hhuster hns been work
ing In this *lty, the fans have realised how
he could excite Smith or anybody else to
violence.
“Hhuster may be a pretty clever fellow
In some respects, but he Is certainly not
a capable umpire, nnd If he ever realises
his ambition to get Into the big leagues,
we will believe his assertion that umpir
ing up there Is Just like drinking pink
lemonade. Shuster doesn't play_ favorites.
He denis out the spurious article to t*otb
sides." %
For the first paragraph, many thanks.
“Ham” seldMU agrees with us In the sum

As to the second paragraph, we told you
so.
As to the third paragraph, poppycock,
which has u>t even the merit of being
true.
As to the fourth paragraph, comment Is
superfluous.

Hlloatn, Ga.. Aug. 24.—A Tery Interest

Agee. Union Point's star pitcher, was

relieved by Arnold, who was treated Just
