AUGUST 29. 1912. | FODDER FOR~ FANS~~||I Billy Evans and Jack Egan had a swell time last Sunday afternoon. They watched Ty Cobb umpire a semi-professional game in Washington. Cobb got $78.15, mostly in nickels, as his share of the gate, and had to lug it away in a dress suit case. • • • A lot of folks are tumbling to the fact that the Barons are Joke pennant winners. H. T. McDaniel, New Orleans baseball expert, in a recent article says in effect that the only thing the Barons lack Is ability to bat. field, think and run bases. * * * The Sally league (season ends Monday. Labor day. with double-headers in three towns. After that they have a post sea son series to settle. • • • Part of the Athletics’ slump this year may be attributable to overconfidence. They had just won a world's champion ship and everybody predicted that they were a pennant certainty. Human nature can’t stand too much confidence. * * * Brooklyn has a girl pitcher, Miss Car rie Kilbourn. who is said to be a real wonder. In a recent game she pitched against the Tacony Athletic club in Phil adelphia and let the T. A. C. batters down with 3 hits. • * * Speaking of the game Hub Perdue re cently beat the Giants, Charley Dryjlen said "Hub worked hard enough to win half a dozen games. His scenery could not have been wetter it he had slept m the Chicago river.” * * » They* are calling Rudy Summers the "giant southpaw' up in Chicago now. They are due a surprise when they see him. For Rudy is built along the archi tectural lines of a mosquito- very filmy, but right there with the sting. Billy Sullivan has been unconditionally released by the White Sox. Next year he will start the season by working out young pitchers and will end it by scout ing for the Sox. ♦ ♦ » Mrs. Helen Hathaway Britton, owner of the Cards, has given her side of the row with Bresnahan. She says that Roger has made a poor showing with good ma terial. that his affiliations in the National league are undesirable, that Roger has . not been doing his best since he tried io buy the team and failed, she doesn't like the idea of the world's tour nor Bresna han's malodorous alliance with McGraw.
