’ * money, marbles or chalk that Joe Wood will twirl
rings around Matty, Marquard or Tesrean. New York
baseball “bugs” predict that “Jeff” Tesrean will pitch holes
through Wood. O’Brien and the remainder of the Boston
twirlers.

Browns Won in 1886.
Comiskey’s Browns beat “Pop”
Anson’s Chicago White Sox in the
1886 series. Caruthers and Foutz
twirling great ball for St. Louis.
In the 1885 series between St;
Louie and Chicago each team won
three games and one game was a
tie. The players got s4l apiece
out of this series. Last year each
of the Athletics drew down $3,654
for his share. Quite a difference,
eh?
Comiskey’s Browns figured in
four world’s championship clashes.
Detroit beat the Browns in 1887.
■'Lady” Baldwin, one of the great
est southpaws of his time, won s.X
and lost one game for Detroit. Co
ni iskey’s right-handers—Caruthers.
Fnutz and Hudson—were soft pick
ing for the Detroit sluggers. Nearly
every member of the Detroit team
was a .300 hitter.
Keefe Outpitched King.
The world’s series of 1888 between
St. Louis and New York was
marked by a tremendous pitching
duel between Timothy Keefe and
Charlie King. Keefe beat King
three straight, 2-1, 4-2 and 6-4,
and won the series for New York.
King, whose real name Is Koenig,
is now a prosperous contractor in
St. Louis. He was known as “Can
non Ball" King, on account of his
wonderful speed. He sure could
zing the ball over the plate.
Charlie Comiskey managed the
St. Louis Browns of 1888. Arlie
Lathani, Tip O’Neill, Curt Welch
and other stars played under the
'Old Roman.”
In the Temple Cup series of
'1895 between Cleveland and Balti

straight games for Cleveland. Bal
timore won one game. Charlie Es

off the rubber by the Orioles In the
first game. Hoffer and Joe Cor
bett pitched four straight victories
for Baltimore. Bobby Wallace ]
pitched the second game for Cleve- I ;
land, working against Corbett.
William Dineen turned the trick t
f ' the Boston Americans in 1903 1
in the memorable eight-game se
ries with the Pittsburg Nationals. ,
Dineen, now an American league ,
umpire, was the greatest right- i
hander of his time. 1
Thanks to the wonderful pitching ~
of "Deacon” Philippe. Pittsburg
obtained a flying start, capturing
three out of the first four game l .
Dineen beat “Schoolmaster Sam"
Leever in the second game. The
betting was 10 to 1 on Pittsburg.

Adams Beat Tigers.
’Babe" Adnms, then practically
an unknown ball player, won the
first game of the 1909 series for
Pittsburg. He had been < with
Pittsburg all that season, playing
third fiddle to Howard Catnnltz
and Victor Willis, who were given
credit for winning the National
league championship.
Willis. Camnitz and "Lefty” Lei
field were counted on to beat De
troit. but the Tiger sluggers clout
ed all three hard. Adams and
Nick Maddox had to win the se
ries for Pittsburg. Adams went
the route like a stake horse and
twirled three straight victories for .
Clarke's men. He made the heavy
hitting Tigers look like "mutts.”
Cobb, Crawford and company found
Adams a complete puzzle. The
youngster’s triumph was sensa
tional in the extreme. He allowed
eighteen hits in three games, struck
out eleven Tigers and walked six
men.
Jack Coombs, of Philadelphia,
equaled Adams’ record as far as
winning three straight in the 1910
series, but he was lucky. Al
though ho beat the Cubs every time
he worked against them, Chance's
men slammed Jack’s offerings
fiercely. Nothing but superb sup
port and the Athletics' ability to
make plenty of runs enabled
Coombs to go over three times.
Bender Hero Last Year.
“Chief Bender, wonderful red
skin, was the hero of the 1911 clash
between New York and Philadel
phia. The Indian allowed sixteen
hits in three games, winning two
and losing one. Coombs beat the
Giants once and Plank won and
lost a game. Matty lost two and
won one game. Otis Crandall won
the other game credited to New
York, although Ames was really
entitled to the victory. Marquard
was taken out in the third; Ames
pitched six innings; Crandall bat
ted for him in the tenth and got
the glory when New York jerked
the prize out of the fire.
