THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY, MAY 6, 101:?.
THIS SEASON
By Percy II. Whiting.
I T looks as though tho Southern
League were set to make a killing
this year. The attendance thus far]
[ has been marvelous.
At the opening of the reason, thanks
[ to the early start and the consequent
bad weather, receipts were not what
they should have boen—but at that
records were broken.
Since the weather has come around
and warmed up decently there has
been nothing to it but ENORMOUS
crow ds.
Here in Atlanta all records for early
attendance were smashed. Chatta
nooga has held up well, despite the
wretched work of the team. Nash
ville has had corking crowds. Mem
phis is off in attendance and al
ways will be as long as a cheap team
is indicted on the Bluff City folks.
Birmingham has had amazing crowds.
The attendance in Montgomery is
FINE. New Orleans has been a shade
off. And Mobile—well, please picture
nearly 8.000 people paying their way
in at the turnstile there!
Tf the race stays close the atten
dance records will smash all records
to bits
* * •
D OWN in New Orleans there is a
feeling that the Pelican^ chief
played a pretty shrewd joke on the
Crackers by, euchring them out ot
Williams.
Maybe so. We’ll let it go at that—
if they will.
But to Cracker fans it appears that
the joke is on Frank. After Williams’
debut here and while it was supposed
he still belonged to the Crackers I
asked Bill Smith, “What about Wil
liams?”
Now Bill is slow to criticise a man.
But there wasn’t any loom for ar
gument in this case.
“I don’t care a lot for what he’s
showed me yet,” was Bill’s reply, “He
may come around, but—” and he
sighed.
Bill was tickled to death to be so
well rid of Williams.
As for Bisland—he continues to look
like a million dollars ($1,000,000)!
This lad wasn’t one of the kind who
was hawked around and nabbed by
the highest bidder. Smith has had
his eye on him for six months. When
he found out Williams wouldn’t do he
wired Barney Dreyfuss, “What will
you take for Bisland?”
About that time It began to appear
that Hans Wagner was coming
around all right, so the Pirates made
a stiff price on Bisland. The local club
closed so fast it took their breath
away.
As for Williams—well, we’ll keep
Bisland.

D ASEBALL writers the country
over are hooting at what they call
the “Cincinnati” base hit. It is one
of these fielder’s choices that, by dic
tum of Ban Johnson, Is to be scored
a base hit.
For instance, a runner is on first.
The batter, on the hit and run,
ygrdunds weakly to the third baseman.
The third baseman tries to land the
runner going to second. The throw
is too late. And all hands are .‘•'aft*.
But had the third baseman thrown
to first it would have been an easy
out.
Ban Johnson says it’s a hit.
The baseball writers say it’s a “Cin
cinnati” hit.
In the Atlanta press box we scot *
that in what appears to be the only
logical way. If the thing looks like
an infield hit and it appears that, the
runner would have beaten it we give
the batter a hit. On the other hand,
If it i-* apparent that the batter
would have been out a mile at first,
if the throw had been made there, we
score it a fielder's choice.
Of course there are some close de
cisions on this—but so there are on
a lot of other hits, when the scorer
mas: decide whether to let them go
as hits or errors.
It is better to let the scorers u?*e
their judgment than it is to give iru a
hits when they were not entitled to
them.
It isn’t that we object to giving the
batters a few unearned hits—but these
hits go against the pitcher just the
same as screaming singles and work
an awful hardship on him. The pitch
er is thus' made to pay the penalty
because the infieldor throws to the
wrong base.

Gulls, with Pat uranam receiving.
Manager Finn will use Bradley Hogg,
the undefeated pitcher, with Schmid’
catching.
Atlanta lost again yesterday, 10 to
6.
Bausewein got away bad and gave
the first three batters bases on balls.
Mussel* and Price were not effective.
The Gulls walloped the ball hard
and it seemed as though they would
hit any pitcher that was sent in the
box. It was just one of those days
when they would hit anything that
was served up to them.
The Crackers were the first to score,
but were overtaken.
The Gulls hit at opportune times,
while we got all our hits after two
men were out.
Bisland continues to hit the ball
hard. His two triples w^uld have
been home runs on the Atlanta
grounds. The fans of Atlanta will
see in Bisland one of the most fin
ished shortfielders ever in the South
ern League.
The Crackers hope to get at least
an even break, and will try hard to
annex two games to the won column.
We all hope Bill Bailey will soon be
in shape to don the spangles and be
with us. as he is missed very badly.
Yesterday’s game was the °igly;h
straight win for the Gulls and the
second of the series with the Crack
ers. Campbell went the route for
Mobile. He fanned five men and gave
one pass.
Robertson, with two homers and as
many singles in five times up, led
the batting. Jacobson, in five times
at bat, got a homer and two singles.
For the visitors, Bisland, in fou*
times up, got two triple-sackers. Long
found three safeties in five chances.
The game was long drawn out, due
to the many batters going up.
Atlanta started off well with three
runs in the first on as many hits, one
a triple, but couldn't hold the pace
One run was put over in the fourth
and two in the sixth, but that was all.

the Giants have the idea roaming
around in their belfrys that they have
the National League pennant cinch
ed without playing for it they want
to chase it.
They were never more fooled in
their young and tender lives.
Other champion clubs hefoie them
have fallen by reason of over confi
dence, and they arc on the high road
for a thud that will shake them
from their head to their heels.
It is possible they are having their
annual slump now, but with any
other team excepting the Giants it
might he said they are outclassed.
Of the victories to their c,recity, a
majority were won from the tail-end

just as easy for every other team
that has had the luck to go up
against them.
Lack Fighting Spirit.
The Brooklyn* have more than held
their own with the Champs, and
now the Phillies have broken even
with them. The first month of the
championship season, is nearly over.
Another week and it will be.
What have the much-touted Giants
to show for it?
h the two Philadelphia games
play *d here the hoys have not shown
the fighting spirit that they have so
long been noted for.
I will not say they have been in
different. but they have played a list
less game and that verges closely 011
indifference with them for they are
famous for the good old “pepper.”
They have lacked that snap, the
fire, the ginger that heretofore huve
been their middle games.
They must pull themselves out of
the dopey rut they art? in and quick
ly too or they will be so far behind
that it will develop into a question
whether then can or not.
