I : 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.

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.” Totals . .

It in not my opinion that the Brooklyn team han a chance for the championship, but there is no getting around the fact that the boys are playing high-class baseball now.

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 league to me.

They have Iteen doing as they pleased, and 1 am trying to make them play my sort of let sc ball, auifi they don't know what to make of it.

"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 out. “‘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.” * * * < < ’C' TINNY, Chance and you should -F run into the same kind of going,” said I to Tinker. “I saw Mr. Farrell the other day," answered Joe, “and we were talking about Chance. “ ‘You’ve got the smartest baseball manager in the world,’ I told the own er of the New York Americans. ‘Give him time, and he’ll give you a ball club.’ “Walt until Chance gets in the game himself and starts riding those pitchers out there from first base,” predicted Joe, in conclusion. “Just wait.” (Copyright. 1913, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.)

It is a truly sporting stake and when it was framed bv the late William C. Whitney it was in tended to be the richest fixt/r* 1 of the turf. John E. Madden is the heaviest nomi nator with three, while Richard T. Wil son and H. K. Knapp, who races under the name of the Oneck stable, have taken two each. Among others who have made nomi nations are August Belmont, C. K. G. Billings. John Safford Richard F. Par- man. Woodruff Clay. Frederick John son, Alex Smith Cochran. J. N Camden and Andrew Miller. G EORGIA is putting in a strenu ous week batting and running 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 AMERICUS BASEBALL TEAM UNDERGOES BIG SHAKE-UP AMERICUS, GA., May 15.—Tht material strengthening to-day of the Amerlcus team of the Empire League restores interest and confidence here to a considerable extent. Jesse "Wolfe has been secured from Albany by purchase, and will lead off in the box at Thomasville to-day. The Americus management ha* likewise secured an excellent second baseman in Paigue. Hamlin comes here from the Cotton States League as shortstop. The release of Pitchers Smith and Pruitt is announced to-day. Hal Grittin, recently appointed temporary manager to succeed Manager Harris Weber, will probably be retained per manently in that capacity. SMITH BUYS TWO PLAYERS; BOTH REPORT RIGHT AWAY MEMPHIS, TENK., May 15.—Billy Smith has purchased Pitcher Dent from the Senators and Catcher Devoght from the Boston Braves. Both will report to the club at once. BRAVES GET LORD.

He is fast developing into a ready successor to the one and only “Goat” Holliday. He has the ‘‘beef.” 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.
