. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, THURSDAY, APRIL 24.1913. jl.v Crackers Win Whirligiggy Game Q O © © O © © Becker, Weaver and Co. Get Good © O O © © 0> © Harbison Pulls Off Quaint Play By Percy II. Whiting. A NY afternoon that Bill Smith starts Weaver and Becker ought to be declared “fan day” at the ball park. For there is always such a lot of good stuff doing. Consider now the scores of recent Weaver-Bccker games, to wit, and thus: Wednesday, April 1&—Birmingham 11, Atlanta S: 14 nits by Barons. Saturday, April lit Nashville 0. Atlanta 8: 11 hits by Vols. Wednesday, April 23- Atlanta 8, Chattanooga 7, 10 hits by Fiber kids. Note the gradual improvement of the combination! They scaled the runs down thus. 11, 9, 7. Also they settled down in the matter of allow ing hits, to wit: 14, 11. 10. That pair is getting good. • « * * W HAT the mischief the matter is with Weaver nobody seems to know. If anybody had told Bill Smith a month ago that Weaver would be knocked out of the box three times between April 10 and 23 inclusive Smith would have snickered. But it has come to pass. In yesterday's game Weaver was knocked out in the second inning with two hits. But both were homers, from the bats of Curt. Klston and "Gabby” Street. * ♦ * T HE knocking out of Weaver was as nothing, however, compared with what the Crackers handed Chappelle. in the second inning the At lantans batt e d clear around and three over and with six hits made 8 runs. With Bailey up for the second time Big Bjll put his glove in his pocket, turned on his massive heel and left the box. Kid Elberfeld had Forrest More out in the bull pen, warming up and there was a long "delay before he could be dug up. But Chappelle was through. He didn't give a cuss if there weren’t any more pitchers anywhere. H e had finished, after one of the saddest drubbings a pitcher has taken in the Southern league this year. * * * i T was nice that Atlanta won for we should lie forced to admit otherwise that it was—oh well, what's the use. We won. I,vt Chattanoogans grow the wrinkles. Of course the Atlanta in and outfield pulled a couple of bad ones. Two fell safe that were within reach of three men. They went as hits but they should have been errors. Everybody went after them, nobody got them, nobody seemed to know who was supposed to get them. And there you are. But then we won. * « * I T fell to Douglas Harbison to celebrate his return to Ponce Delieon park with quite the most amazing play of the day. It was in the fervid second. Wally Smith was on third when Weaver tapped one to Harbison. He sought Wally off third and a run-down was on. The ball was hurled to Street and he slammed it back to Harbison. “Dug” closed in a bit and Wally dashed for the plate, with Harbison close after him. They passed Street, who was waiting to head Wally. They passed the mighty form of Chappelle, poised in the path for the same purpose. Gradually Smith ap proached the plate, with Harbison after him. but not gaining much. There was need for a critical play. It was a crisis. With a flash of genius Harbison drew back his mighty right and HERDED THE BALI, FI LL IX THE MIDDLE OF SMITH’S BACK. The strategy of the thing was lost on the fans. Our personal belief is that Harbison expected to fell Smith with the blow and that he planned then to pick up the ball and press it against Smith’s prostrate form. But Smith, lining tough by nature, didn't mind the wallop and romped across with a run. , * * * I T appears that the Crackers have something on the Lookouts. Yesterday made the fourth consecutive victory of Atlanta over their hated rivals. This afternoon Manager Elberfeld will try to reverse the count. Just what the matter is with the Ellierkids nobody seems to know, ex cept that they are weak on the slab. The rest of the team stacks up pretty good, flabby Street is going like a wonder and his playing does a lot to substantiate his claim that he’s just as good a catcher to-day as he ever was in his life. President O. B. Andrews, of the Chattanooga club, who witnessed the game, says that he is not through strengthening the team. “We will keep after it until we get a winner, if we have to buy ball players all summer,” said Mr. Andrews. And when a man goes out after anything with that spirit he usually accomplishes something.

CHRISTY MATHEWSONS BIG LIAGUI GOSSIP BOXING News of the Ring Game NEW YORK, April 24.—Although tho season is not yet very old, two events have already dented baseball history which may have a big effect on the results of the race.

His underpinning did give him very little trouble last season, and lie had a good year. Everybody ln-gnu to lie lievo the legs were as good as ever, and, in examining the outlook for tills summer, the prognosticators took it for granted Wagner would have another good year. Then Honus twisted one of his valuable legs in a practice game at Hot Springs during the spring training period. Little was thought of the injury at first, but It continued to grow worse instead of better and, when the club returned to I’ittsburg, Wagner was limping badly. Baseball players were surprised to see him attempt to play in the open ing games, and tills reckless treat ment of the twisted knee made it much worse. He soon had to quit and now it will not respond to treat ment. Dreyfuss is worried. Clarke is worried, and the I’ittsburg fans are worried. Apparently least worried of all is Hans Wagner they tell me. "I can still work the dutch in my automobile, and 1 guess I'll tic able to limp around a little after the birds next fall.” be said to somebody the other day. if that were possible. His appearance of indifference to his injury is doubt less assumed when lie says his leg is strong enough to work the clutch of his automobile. It is remarkable how many veter ans quit tile game because their legs give way first. There was Arthur Devlin, formerly of tile (Hants, and one of the best third basemen ever to play in the big leagues. His arm was good, bis eye was good, and lie was a young man when Met!raw let him go to Boston because he was getting slow in the legs. That was one of the hardest moves Mctiraw made be cause Devlin was a particular friend of liis. It was the creaky condition of Bridwell's legs that picked him off the New York cluli although “Al” seems to have regained Ills strength through a rest. Aside from bis trouble with his head, Frank Chance has suffered most from his legs, and his underpinning has kept him out of White to Atlanta to box Freddie Welsh. I^each Cross or Joe Rivers.

Many doubt whether Chance’s legs will l>e strong enough ever again for him to play regularly, in spite of predictions to the contrary. The reason for the weakening of a ball player’s legs first is apparent. The greatest strain comes on this part of the anatomy. All ball play ers are forced to make quick, starts. The strains and severe, quick starts and sudden stops, wears on the legs. In sizing up a hall play er, the smart manager nowadays with the increased desire for speed notices the legs first. If he sees the recruit favors these, he is generally passed back to the minors even if he has other ability. Look at Lelivelt, of the Yankees, who butted .J»00 last year, but still is sitting on the bench because lie lacks speed.

I T was a slam-bang; hard-hitting, mussy-played game yesterday. But Atlanta won and that makes it possible to forgive all sins com mitted. Even the bonehead exhibi tions were forgotten w;ien ;t was over and the tallies showed 8 to 7 for the Home Talent; With all the slowness and dullness eliminated, however, there were mo ments when the crowd stood up and even turkey trotted. For part of that second inning was of the spine chill ing variety. Even the Chattanooga fans had an opportunity to shake their feet ih glee. But Atlantans got the most excitement out of the is sue F'or a time the enthusiasm merged into mad rivers of joyous ness. Then the cup overflowed and the home crowd settled down to easy feelkig of nonchalance. Some even went home, suffering from ennui. Plenty of Action in Second. That second inning teemed with action. First the hearts of the visi tors were set jiggling with joy. Then the blow-off came and the Atlantans were galvanized into an enthusiasm that swept over the stands like wa ter shot over Dayton. It got too good for most of us. For in that second Chattanooga made the first score of three tallica. Atlanta followed with eight, sending Pitcher Chappelle to the bench when every man in the game had faced him one time and ho had managed to submerge only one. Following this eventful round tho visitors made desperate efforts to land on the big end of the book keeping, but they could not quite make It a go. though in what is al ways termed by the losing team—the fatal seventh inning—»they cam - within an ace of tying. A good throw, a close decision and the final rally ended with a shy run. Therj was nothing more doing. Weaver started out to twirl for Atlanta, but his pitching didn’t suit Hilly Smith Elberfeld kinder smiled up to it. as it were. Smith, however, substituted Becker after the second, though having a lend of five runs. More was substituted for Chappell© in the midst of a bombardment that must have made Mudero’s defense look ragged. Chappelle’s pitching was not much worse than Chatta nooga’s fielding, though goodness knows It was bad enough. Becker was lucky to hold the game in the seventh and eighth when Chattanoo ga started a belated snurt. Visitors Got Two Homers. Two home runs and a base on balls gave the visitors their three „ in the second. Atlanta got her eight tallies on two bases on balls, four singles, a double and a three packer, with a sacrifice and some grand old stone work thrown in. Chattanooga, scored two in the fourth on a tw * bagger and two singles and in the seventh added two more on a double and two singles. Some of the safe ties were due to nigged fielding of the bonehead variety, notably 1 two bagger and a single which eitner Dobard or Bailey should have had.
