I never saw a team playing butter ball and losing in my life than the Crackers did on their trip And they never lost their nerve. if the pitchers come through we’ll win in a walk.

In the third Graham slipped one by Kissinger, Musser hunted safe— a peach,of a performance for a pitch er—and Bailey cleaned up with a single In the fourth Bisland put across a clean home run that won the game.

It takes nine men to win ball in any fast league. It has bean the case in the past, anil it will be ever thus in the future. A pitcher of Walsh or Johnson's caliber may figure con spicuously in the winning of a game, but at that they must have fielding and run-getting powers in their teams to make them winners. But let one thing be impressed on the public mind—players may come and go, but the game will go on for ever Had Cobb not returned to the Detroit team, the continued losings of the club would have been laid to his absence, but it was a great vic tory and eye-opener both for the De troit people in all parts of America that he did return, to show the super ficial and unsophisticated how little one man figures In the game, and especially an outfielder. To look at Cobb, or Cobbism, from a dispassionate and Impartial stand point. let us see what Cobb’s status is in the game. 1 grant he has the right to ask for any salary he thinks his services are worth; he realizes that he is a drawing card at home and abroad. He knows the owners of the club look at him from a com mercial standpoint, and he views them in the same light. He knows also that there is a time limit to his playing days, and he wants to make the most of it. The home press and the unsophisticated press throughout the United States have been burning incense to his greatness and telling him that he is the one ball player in the history of the game, which he never was. But as Detroit made him a drawing card, In their slopology, he h id i right to make them pay for it. Which lie has. Infielder More Important. Let us see where he figures as a ball player, compared with the play ers of the past and present. He is placing in the outer works of the game —as a fielder, averaging about two fly balls to a game, with plenty of time to think what he will do af ter catching a fly ball or the ground er that is bounding toward him. No outfielder can be compared with an Infielder or a catcher, as their posi tions are entirely different in the na ture of the work they have to per form An Infielder’s brain is in per petual action from the time the pitcher delivers the ball, and he has only a fraction of a second to think.

Run getting is the combination of hitting and base run ning Base running has ever been the spectacular part of a hall player’s work, with all other things -nearly equal. To sav Cobh was the great est ball player in the history of the game would be like telling a man who saw the Mississippi River that the Il linois River was the longest and larg est In the United States, or to tell a person who saw the summit of Pike's Peak that the range of the Allegheny was higher. 1 suppose it will be the same in the next generation of ball players. They will be a.s skeptical of the baseball prowess of Cobb, Wagner and Lajoie, as the present ones are of the great ness of Mike Kelly. Ewing and Wil liamson. As a fielder and thrower Cobb could not stand comparison with Fogarty. Curt Welsh. Bill Lange, and a few others of the past and he is not to-day the superior as a fielder and thrower of Graney of Cleveland and Moeller of Washington. Thinks Keeler Was Better. There is a little modest man who left the ball field two years ago, namely. William Keeler, who did not wear sleigh bells abound a hotel to let people know he was around, but he was the superior of Cobb, as ver satile a batter. But to say that Cobb was the equal of the three great ball players of the past, namely, Ewing. Williamson, and Mike Kelly, would be ridiculous. Williamson was a third baseman and a shortstop. He was one of the greatest base runners in the history of the game. Besides being one of the greatest infielders that ever lived, he was also a catcher and a pitcher. Buck Ewing was undoubtedly the greatest throwing, hitting and base running catcher of them all. But to compare Cobb, the outfielder, to the immortal Kelly, who was the craftiest base runner of all times, be sides being one of the best batters and catchers that ever lived, would be like comparing a 2:40 horse to a 2:10 one. To use a hyperbole, it could be said that Mike Kelly behind the bat and on the ba«es in the crucial con test of a game sweat more baseball cells into the rim of his cap than some players of to-day have in their skulls If Ty Cobb is guilty of the alleged prima-donna breaks in wanting ex tra hotels and extra rooms from other players and practicing when he wants to—no one is to blame hut the De troit management themselves They have petted and coddled him as much as an indulgent mother does to a child she has spoiled. CHRISTY MATHEWSOH'S BIG LEAGUI GOSSIP Easy to Pick All-Star Prep Team 0 o o © © o © CUBS ASK WAIVERS ON RICHIE AND REULBACH PHILADELPHIA. May 20.—Man ager Kvrrs, of thv Chicago National Eaogu* Club, has asked waivers on Pitchers Big Ed Reulbach and Lew Richie. The "Giant Killer," owing to his ability to beat the Giants any time he started. Reulbach has also been going hack of late. both the Athletics and Washington teams of the American League. From those scores, the Quakers looked like the same old bunch, dead on their feet, as they have always been, but with the opening of the race on their own circuit, they jumped away in good style and are playing fast ball. It is their speed and pitching that have held them up so far. << w HERE will Brooklyn stop? V the surprise of the race. In its ante-season performances, it made a very poor showing, being easy for stirring the baseball following por tion of the populace now. One of these days the Brooklyn team is going to wake up and dis cover that it is rated as a great ball club, tremble at the idea and start to lose. The Brooklyn boys should finish in the first division. They have talent at present to warrant such a prediction, but they should not crowd the w inner of the pennant in September. That is merely my opinion. Perhaps it. is based on the years of mediocre baseball played in Brooklyn and Philadelphia will find it. harder traveling when they start away from home and invade the West. Not that they will encounter particularly tough competition in the West, but the handicap of playing away from home diamonds and home crowds is going to be a big one. It will be observed that most of the suc cesses of both these teams have been made at home under the watchful eye of home crowds. The Brooklyn club has set its admirers crazy, and men who have not been able to raise SOUTHERN LEAGUE. Games Tuesday. Memphis at Atlanta at Ponce DeLeon. Game called at 4 o’clock.

Standing of the Clubs. up their voices to root for the home club for years are tearing their throats out regardless now. This all helps a ball club, especially on that floats into a winning streak sudden ly, as Brooklyn has. Still the Dodg ers may tear through the league as, Washington did last year and not let up. 1 'HE Boston club is the one which N EW YORK, May 20. I have decided to give much space in this article to the fast- going Phillies and Dodgers. The Phillies merit considerable analysis. When the Giants played them recently, I never saw a Philadelphia team playing better, and, as there has always been plenty of feeling between the two clubs, they were very glad to clean up on New York as they did. The team is benefiting from much Itetter conditions tiiis season than have existed in Philadelphia for many years, and these are mainly re sponsible for the marked improvement, as it will lie noted that practically the same men are appearing in the batting order that landed the team in the second division last summer. William Locks, tlie new president of the club, is si practical baseball man, and he is giving Dooin a chance to manage the team without worrying him with a lot of trivialities. The result is that Dooin is getting good baseball out of bis men, the best that is in each individual. Again the Quakers have advanced so far into the season without any of the regulars suffering serious injuries and being out of the game, almost a record for the club. It is not likely the team will go through the race with this rosy record, and an injured regular or two will slow the club up a good deal because Dooin is not well fortified with substitutes. • * • 'T'HE real strength of the team lies in the excellent pitching staff whicli is the unexcelled feature of the league at this writing. When either Alexander. Chalmers or Sea ton has been working, it has been practically impossible for an oppos ing club to do any hitting. It is this great pitching which has permitted the Phillies to make the good show ing that they have, because they are not a crowd of hard batters them selves. They win their games by small scores, depending on the pitch ers and . smooth fielding to prevent the other side from rolling up many runs. Now, when this pitching staff begins to wilt under the strain of the race and the heat of tlie summer, as it is liable to do, the Quakers are going to find a very much harder road to travel. They would have a good chance for the pennant with more sturdy batters. As it is now. they are depending on their twirlers and have not better than an outside opportunity for the championship. critics. Nobody could see any good in that team before the race opened, with the possible exception of Stal lings, the manager, and James Gaff ney, the owner, and yet it is playing ball and becoming the talk of the town in place of the declining Red Sox. Stallings is responsible for it, because he is a manager, who builds up a club. Within a year or two the Boston team is going to be one to take into the pennant reckoning I believe. The manager is digging up new material which suits his pur-1 poses and developing it. One thing ! he is looking for and w{iich no other Boston team has possessed for a good many years is speed. His sys tem very closely resembles that fol lowed by McGraw. So far I have not seen St. Louis in action, but I do not believe its show- i ing to date is its normal stride. It I does not strike me that Huggins can j maintain anything like a first divi- i jion pace. His club will not stand it.

McGraw called "Larry” Doyle, the good natured. to him after a game and took up with him the matter of an error he had made which figured largely in the defeat of the Giants. "Well." replied "Larry,” "you’ve got to hand it to me, boss. I make all my errors w’hen they count.” This answer disarmed McGraw. “You're a great little, pinch error maker,” admitted McGraw. * * * I T must not be thought that I am slighting the American League, but there has been little change during the week in that organization. The Athletics are still piling along wdth a comfortable lead, and Boston is crashing dow'n through the stand ing. giving little indication of having even a look-in for the flag. The Wash ington club is the worst sufferer. Griffith has had some hard luck that has slowed up his team and hurt his chances for the pennant very largely. Foster, who within a year developed into one of the best third basemen in the league, is laid up with typhoid fever and will be out of the game for pretty nearly two months any way. This destroys the smooth work ing of the infield, because Laporte is slow. Johnson, the pitcher, is the won der of the season. He established his record of fifty-6ix scoreless in nings last week. To my mind, he is not only the greatest in the game to-day, but the greatest in the game has ever produced. He did not make i this record against easy teams, but against clubB composed of the hard- . By Jim Glover T O select an all-star baseball team from the prep schools of Atlanta this year is not as difficult as it has been in past seasons. This year there is a star for almost every po sition who is so much better than his nearest competitor that there is lit tle chance for any disagreement. Here are the names of the players, the ocsitions that they are given and the schools which they represent ed the past season. Name Position School Armistead catcher (Capt.) Boys High Fox pitcher. . . Boys High Weston pitcher .... Tech Hicjh Callahan pitcher Marist Lowery first base Marist Bedell second base.. Tech High Allen third base Marist Spurlock shortstop.. Boys High Laird left field Tech High Rennolds .... center field .. Tech High Wells right field Peacock J. Parks utility Tech High Sam Armistead, of Boys High, is without a doubt the best backstop in the league this year. He steadies a pitcher, leads the league in batting and seldom allows a man to steal a base. He is made captain of the nine as he knows the game thoroughly. Fox Leading Pitcher. The pitching staff is the only prob lem on the team. Fox has shown up the best this year, but one man is not enough to do the twirling for a team, so another had to be selected; and right here is where the rub comes in. Weston and Callahan are so nearly equal in ability that it is nec essary to name both. Callahan is a pitcher of the sensational style, a pitcher who often fans the first nine or ten men who face him and then when his support weakens blows up and loses the game. Weston has pitched in only two games this year but his showing in both contests was fine. Besides his pitching he is the best batting and fielding twirler of them all. Jim Lowery gets the job at first base without any trouble. He is a steady player and about the only man on the Marist team who has not "spilled the beans" in some game. Bill Bedell is the right man for second base. He is fast and has swiped more bases this year than any man in the league. He is also a good batter. Charlie Allen, of Marist, has not played quite up to his usual standard at third base this year, but. neverthe less. his playing and hitting has been good enough to warrant him a place on the all-Mtar team. Weston and Parks, of Tech High, are also crack third stackers, but Weston is also a pitcher and Parks has been given the utility job. j Spurlock Crack Shortstop. ( Spurlock is in a class by himself when it comes to playing shortstop. He has a good head and can hit an 1 ' field well. He is just what a short stop should be. Harry Rennolds is the best outfielder in the bunch and is given a place at center. His field ing average for the season is .996 and he is always there with the stick. Johnny Laird is another good out fielder and is especially good on dif- > flcult balls. The other outfield posi tion is given to Wells, of Peacock. al- t ^ though he is a shortstop. He is too good a man to be kept off the team and could play the outfield as well as any of them. Jim Parks, of Tech High, gets the position of utility man. which is just as important a place as any other one on a team. Parki' is a good pitcher, crack infielder and a slugger, one of the best in the league, and he would be a great asset to this team. ‘WILD BILL’ CLARK SIGNS TO TWIRL FOR CORDELE COLUMBIA. S.
