THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, THURSDAY, MAY! 15, 1913.
21 RUNS III 3
DflYS.YETLOSE
By Joe Agler.
M emphis, tenn., May 15.—
Furchner will try to stop th«
Crackers’ losing streak to-day,
with Dunn receiving: Bernhard will
rely on Kroh or Newton to take the
1 ist game of the series.
The Crackers were defeated yester-
da\ in the last two innings, after
having made seven runs.
Smith went Price, his lone south-
law. to the mound at the start, hut
he weakened in the eighth and was
pounded to all corners Of the lot.
Musser was put in to check the rally,
but he was wild and passed one man
find made a wild pPch, so Chappelle
was rushed to the rescue and he. too,
was liberal. The base on balls habit
must be catching, a.s “Big Bill" passed
a man with tin bases full and tied
up the game. Then a long sacrifice
fly to center won the game for Mem
phis and we were defeated In another
one of those hard luck games.
Smith changed his butting order
yesterday, but it made no difference.
We could not make enough runs to
win In tht? last three games we have
made 21 runs, hut were defeated In
all three.
Wally Smith continues to hit the
ball hard, and he is respected by the
pitchers. He was given his bas«* on
balls twice yesterday when a hit
meant runs.
We are fighting hard to win and
hope to stay above the .500 mark. If
our pitchers can hold the Turtles to
four or five runs we will probably
win to-day’s battle.

Georgia Batting Order Is Changed
© © O Q Q 0 <0
Morris Picked to Pitch Saturday
A THENS, GA., May 15.—Since
Georgia has been forced to the
last ditch and bus been put on
the defensive by their ancient and
honorable technological rivals In At
lanta, the team and everybody * in
Athens have taken on a Napoleonic
spirit and are more determined now
than ever to win the Friday and
Saturday battles.
Hundreds of loyal fans will accom
pany the team to Atlanta Friday
morning, while Saturday the town
will be practically depopulated. A
special train will carry the Georgia
students over for the day.
Coach Plans Attack.
Coach Cunningham is planning his
attack for these games as carefully
as a general would the maneuvers
upon which depended the freedom of
Ms country. He lectures to his men
every afternoon as diligently as
college professor doea to a class of
freshmen und no angle of the ene
my's style of play Is escaping his no
tice.
Cunningham has switched his bai
ting order and, in the attempt to get
more effective hitters on the team,
has rammed Bowden in right field
and shoved him into second place In
the batting list. This gives him three
fast men in Ginn, Bowden and Mc
Whorter to “get on." with Hutchens
and Henderson to hit them in. Both
the last two did good work with the
ash in the games here and they are
counted on to keep up their heavy
batting in Georgia's last desperate
effort to land the Southern Intercol
legiate Association championship.
Corley Hurls One Game.
Corley will do the hurling in the
first game, while Morris will try to
ledeem himself in the battle Satur
day.
Cunningham stated last night that
there was no foundation for the re
port that Corley would work both
days. The coach considers Morris his
premier hurler and he will be ro
lled on to win Saturday’s game. Both
have recovered from the fright oc
casioned by xheir first “big Tech
games" and have .steadied down.
Upon them Georgia is still staking ncr
all.
Manager Carter received a chal
lenge from the University of Texas
for a championship series for the
Southeast and Southwest yesterday,
to be played early in June in Texas,
but It will hardly be considered by
Georgia, as the final examinations
are in full blast at that time.
Jacket Team Trying New Stuff
0 © © O © ©
N *E\V YORK, May 15.—THie biggest surprise of the baseball season so far Is the Brook
lyn club, which is playing wonderful ball right now. The team is not winning through
luck, but because it/ is hitting hard, fielding smoothly and getting good pitching. I
ran into Joe Tinker, the manager of the Cincinnati Iteds, the other night after his club
had met Brooklyn in a couple of games. It is always good to get the angle of a smart
player like Tinker.
‘‘What do you think/of Brooklyn,” I asked Tinker.
“They’re (living and taking all kinds of chances," he replied. ‘‘I would rather meet the Giants right now
than the Brooklyn club. The players have «t>t that winning bug, and it gives them self-confidence. You can’t
stop them. I had a man stealing second baae{by ten feet in the game to-day, and lie took a (live at the bag and
nearly cut my leg off in an effort to make itJ That’s what is winning ball games for them. It is the first time
1 ever saw such spirit in a Brooklyn
club."
“Do you think they’ll hold up
through the seasonV”
“I can't s<*> the team as a pennant
winner. If the club should get up In
the race for the ]>ennant, the strain
of the light would crack a lot of
those players. But they are certain
ly playing great baseball now.”

“Same trouble as the Cubs had In

is too much confidence. The players
go out every day with this thought
in their minds:
'• ‘Oh, pshaw, we’ve got the hull
club. Wait until we once get’ start
ed ! We are the goods.’
“And then there will come, a time
when they will have to get/ started
or lose out, and the club won’t be
able to get away with it. It is the
hardest thing in the worjd for a
manager to contend with this feeling
of snug satisfaction. McGraw is do
ing all that he can to correct it. and
ho should accomplish his /purpose if
anyone can, because he is a game
guy. The Giants are playing bad
ball now. There is no doubt about
that. The pitchers are not going
well, and no play is certain.
"Some of the men are taking
throws with one hand, when they
could grab the ball with two without
any trouble and make it sure. I
think McGraw will dtflve the team
together eventually, uud if he does,
it looks like the heist club in the

whined one player the other day. ‘We
never had to get up that early lie fore.’
“ ‘You’ll get up that early if you
are going to work for me,’ was my
answer.
"I believe in ball players getting up
early. You cannot expect a man to lie
in bed until noon and then get out
on the field full of ‘i>ep’ and ready to
play good base ball at 2 or 3 o’clock.
If they sleep late, they are bound to
sit up late, which is a bad thing, since
late hours lend to the only places
which are open, mostly suloons. I
am not trying to spring any alibis for
the Cincinnati team, Matty, because i
have pulled some ‘bones’ myself since
taking charge, but I am trying to
teach my players baseball.
“If a pitcher looks kind of bad, I'll
tell a player to go up and take a
strike. He takes it and then looks
over to the bench tit me.
“ 'Go on and liit,’ I nod to him.
“Maybe he swings and misses one.
It’s two and nothing on him. He gets
the count two and two, and then fans

“‘What’s the matter?’ I say to him
when he comes back to (lie bench.
“ ‘If you’d let me hit that first one,
I’d have knocked it out the lot,’ he
answers. ‘It was right where I like
them. No manager ever made me
take one before.’
“It’s tough work polishing off a
team which has had this sort of
training, and it can’t be done in a
month or two. Some of the players
don’t understand why I want them to
take one, and then after they do they
know they have an alibi for not hit
ting it when they come back to the
bench, and maybe they ain’t up there
fighting all the time. Outside of tny
pitchlng staff, my club looks good, and
we are bound to rise.”

bases, according to reports
from Athens. The Tech team, on the
other hand, is leading a quiet though
busy life out at Grant Field.
Coach Heisman is exercising great
('fire to keep his men frojn going stale.
This is especially true of the pitchers,
who are just throwing enough to keep
in trim.
The Jackets were a little weak on
base running and fielding last week,
and these departments are getting
their quota of attention from Coach
Heisman. Making the little pellet
stick in the pesky glove was another
jinx that seemed to bother’ the Jack
ets in their contests with the uni
versity boys, and several times after
men were out the ball was dropped.
The Tech players are getting lots of
practice at “squeezing it” this week
and should show an improvement.
Tech Hurlers Loafing.
Pitts and Eubanks, the Tech
hurlers, are only keeping their arms
in trim and are saving their best stuff
for the coming games. Pitts will play
right field in one game, probably the
first, and Malone in the other. Pitts
is a good fielder and so far has out-
hit any man on the team. In practice,
Malone is one of tl?e best hitters on
the team, but has failed to get a sin
gle hit the w r hole season. One rea
son is because he never played a
whole game until the last Georgia
game, but was several times put in
for a pinch hitter.
Team Works on Tricks.
Coach Heisman will probably show'
some new tricks in base Tunning and
throws in the games Friday and Sat
urday. The team is practicing some
clever tricks.
Extra seats are being put up now'
at Grant Field and there will be a
seating capacity for about 3,000
people.
A new umpire has been chosen—
Harris Cope. He will umpire both’
games.
Eubanks Works Friday.
It is settled that Eubanks will twirl
the first game and Pitts will work on
Saturday. Attridge will be behind the

but ground balls are not hard for him
to nab. He spears them right and left
and has ae long a reach as was ever
seen on Grant Field. For a first-year
man he is decidedly cool and collected
and doesn’t blow up. He is swatting
the pill some, too. Last week he hit
for what looked like extra bases al
most every time up, but each time
McWhorter laid way back in the
shadows and gathered them all in.
It is thought that comparatively few-
extra base hits will be made on the
Jackets’ diamond, owing to the level
ness of the field and the closeness of
the banks which form this amphi
theater. The outfield is soft and not
packed down and a ball does not roll
as it should. However, if a ball does
chance to be batted over the out
fielders’ heady, it is good for two sacks
anyway, and for a fast man, more.
“Scrappy” Moore managed to land
on the spheroid for one homer on
Grant Field, and several others for
triplets; so extra base hits are not
impossible.
