Yesterday’s game went to Americus,
to the surprise of many and the grati
fication of few. Just at present the
team needs all .that it can get in the
victory line, and It isn’t getting very
much of it. But the whole team is in
a crippled condition. McCormack, one
of the best batters on it, being out for
several days with a mashed finger,
and Kirkham, the new third baseman,
having a wrist Qiat doesn’t allow him
to be in. This makes Snodgrass cover
the initial sack, which he does very
well, but puts the pitchers, the two
who are not on the firing line, In the
outfield, where, while they show up
fairly well, are not in Boyd’s and Snod
grass’s class.- Boyd has to cover third,
DeCosta back-stopping. This is not a
new place for DeCosta, but Just the
same the team needs Mac and Kirk
ham on it.
But these sort of things can’t b.e
helped, a crippled team is an unavoid
able thing when the fates decree that
it shall be so. As it was, the game
was pretty good, with the exception of
a few errors that came uninvited and
some more dumb work. Some of the
men seem to be apathetic and have
assumed a don’t-care attitude, and this
will kill' the percentage as fast as any
thing. On the inside things aren’t
what they might be, and of course
this will affect the playing.
Also a lot of the credit is due Crews,
the pitcher from Birmingham. While
the management at Americus hasn’t
been using him much he Is undoubt
edly the superior of Walen, who is to
Americus what Lavender is to Cor
dele, whnt Foster is to Columbus, and
what Weekley is to Valdosta. Crews
hasn't been seen in many games, but
it was he who pitched the first close
game that Americus participated in,
and now on his second trial he has
won.
Americus secured a lead early in
the game-and held It, even adding to
it True it did look as If the Climbers
would do somethlngdp the ninth. Nun
ley reached first by a hit over short
and stole second. Then Harry Eldred
smashed a clean two-bagger out and
the kid scored, coming in in his usual
style. (He is a base runner, all right)
The hopes of the fans went up-for a
while, but DeCosta hit to short and
died, Nolley to second and dittoed,
and Siner fanned. Sad, but it’s a fact.
It’s harder to bear because it was
Americus. Lost to the Losers, to the
ones who, even counting thiB one, have
won only three games. But they are
a different team now. Stronger is the
word for them, and it’s a lot more, too.
Anyway, they had to stop losing some
time. It was only a question of time,
just as it was with Waycross’ winning
streak. But it was a pity that it was
us on whom they started up. We are
in no condition just at present to rel
ish the idea of being a stepping-stone
for another club.

FAN-ATICS. |
Like as a tale that is told.
Who can foretell the ways
of
the
unmanageable baseball.
Maybe the hammers
are
ringing
some today.
Here’s hoping-that Mae wil
get in
it as soon as possible. He is
becom-
in£ a prime favorite with the fans
It wasn’t so surprising after all
when the condition of the team is
brought into consideration.
The Americus club can’t hardly win
two straights.
Enthusiasm is muchly on the boom
In the native city of the Cellarites.
It's so seldom that they get a game
that It’s doubly, and more,too, pleas
ing to them.
Siner isn’t quite maintaining the
high pace he set at the start. He is
badly handicapped with that split
knee-cap. He's got It in him, anyway,
to do things in the baseball line.
Harry Eldred’s two-bagger in the
ninth was a great piece of work. If
they all worked like Harry and "The
Kid” it wouldn’t be as hard to tell
sometimes.
With the ■ difficulties that now con
front the team in a financial way
swept aWay it won’t be so long until
the Climbers get higher. They are
passing through rather trying times
at present.
Papers outside the circuit are say
ing a lot about Valdosta’s chance of
getting the pennant And there is
something in it, too. The ball they
play is not at all showy, but it’s the
kind that puts a team up higher in the
percentage column.
Davenport—who once had the scorer
to write it Noroum—went down before
Walen, as Nunley did before Crews.
Waycross just had to take one of
those from Columbus, it was Tribble,
the giant-limbed, who pitched the win
ning game.
Cordele and Columbus are waging it
now. They are, perhaps, the most
evenly matched clubs in the circuit
Manager Starr is the dominant per
sonality of the Valdosta club, and he
is cordially liked by the men under
him, who reciprocate by presenting
him with victories.
Foster is a whole big slice of the
Columbus club. He is building him
self quite a reputation.
They are predicting a South Atlantic
career for Lavender. There may be
something in it. There’s obliged to
be something behind that string of
victories that he has.
Ralph Savidge Is doing a lot for the
Charleston club. His work is calling
forth praise from close observers.
Granville's “Game Cocks” are now
slumping rapidly. After soaring up
they are descending with as much or
more energy.
Hoffman, Billy Smith’s caBt-off, will
be a lot for the Savannah club; and It
needs something now.
' Jimmy Daly, who played South At
lantic infield the last two seasons, is
starring with Montgomery now as an
outfielder.
Jack Curran is at his old spiking
tricks again. He has an unenviable
reputation at this. Sooner or later he
will find himself blacklisted for it.
The Jacksonville team is in a sadly
demoralized condition. Nobody con
nected with it seems to know what is
the matter.
