To me this battle seemed the big game of the big series. When 1 saw Joe Dunn come across the plate in the ninth inning with more speed than he has shown all season, bring ing the winning run with him. 1 felt that the worst was over. * '* • B ASEBALL is as uncertain a prop osition as mankind knows, and predictions never count for a whole lot. but, considering everything. I be lieve right now that we have the finest sort of a chance to make a clean -weep of the Gull series and get a firm hold on the Southern League pennant. From the start of yesterday’s game 1 realized that we were up against the stiffest sort of a proposition. Dent v\as pit* hit g uonderful ball, but tha Gulls were getting all the breaks. The boys must have felt about like 1 did. for they were more nervous than they were on the first day of the series. I looked for a blow-up every mo ment, and the fact that it never camo shows how game a ball club Atlanta has working for it in this scrap. * • • I T seems to me that we have gotten about all the bad baseball we have out of our systems: not that we did anything desperately dangerous yes terday. but we were far from being at our normal stride.* But every man is working at top speed, and if by any chance of mis fortune we should lose, Atlanta will have the satisfaction of knowing that Blood Is Purified Quickly ;n Summer Here Is a Remedy that has Wonder- \ fui Action and Promotes Health. > it was represented by a club that put up one of the sternest lights against the biggest odds that the history of the national game has known. * * • THERE Is one thing on which I am * laying great hope if. I am serene ly confident of my pitching staff. Thn first day Price did all that could be expected of mortal man. Yesterday Dent did just as well, and 1 expect as much of Joe Gonzelman to-day. Yes, Joe’s the boy. He’s ripe and ready, lie was itch ing to get In the fray all through yesterday's battle, but I never saw any Indication of Dent’s faltering and 1 believe Joe will be equal to the task to-day. * • a I ’M not much on the psychology stuff, but to a man up a tree, it looks like somebody on the Mobil** club has lost a dog. The Gulls are fighting, all rlgh:. They arc fighting hard. But they arc fighting on the defensive. And that’s right where I want them. If I can get the jump in every game. I know I’ve got a club that will never let up. Did you notice how they fought yesterday whenever the Gulls tied or threatened us? Why, those hoys never knew the fighting stuff thev had in them until they were in dan ger. When they were in danger they tore into the Gull defense like it was tissue paper, and when it looked as if the Gulls were going to get busy, they stiffened and presented a stone wall obstacle for Finn's! gang to knock down. * • * | MUST admit that our chances arc 1 looking better‘every second. Caret is out of the way and so is Hogg. These tw'o birds were admittedly the Gulls’ best bets. Now, they have Campbell, Berger and Robertson to hurl the other two games. Who will It be to-day? Ask Mique. I don’t know. But I suspect it will, in all likeli hood, be Billy Campbell. Finn may figure that Billy can stop us. if any body can, on account of the number of left-hand hitters we have, and then Campbell will add a lm of hit ting strength. I’m not worrying, though. I have supreme confidence in Joe Conzel- man and supreme confidence in my club. Mique Finn is a long way from landing that $1,000 bonus the peopP of Mobile have offered for a pennant winner.

M Y idea of the game of ball we won yesterday is that we out fought the Gulls rather than outplayed them. You know in an ideal ball game there are no errors and no slow “bones" and no slow thinking. It is all machine-like and accurate. And one side or the other w ins on clean hitting or crafty base-running, and you go away and say. “Well, that was a well-played game.” Appalachian League.

McAleer, of the world’s champion Boston American League baseball club, believes Manager Wil liam F. Carrigan capable of making the team again a pennant winner, was demonstrated to-day when he con tracted with Carrigan to continue as manager during the season of 1914. It is understood that Carrigan received a substantial increase In salary. Carrigan was appointed manager of the team a few months ago. following the release of Jake Stahl, who piloted the club to a world’s championship last year. IT would take a pretty lucky guy * to say that about that game yes terday. Not but what there were brilliant individual bits of work. Tha fellow' Starr pulled a grand catch of a line drive off Bisland’s bat, and I Clark did the same thing to Harry Holland’s wallop in the first inning. Harry Welchonce held dow ( n Schmidt’s bid for a triple by some fast work, and Hogg supported him self by a gloved-hand stab of a line drive off Nixon’s bat. I should call it pretty fair fielding. * * • D FT the game was not well played, as the ideal games are supposed to go. For one thing, both teams were on the s-ame fearful tension as yesterday —more so, if possible. We were crazy to win that game. Nothing bjut pure anxiety to play at top speed ever could have made Wal ly Smith look like he did yesterday. And, at that, it must be remembered that Wally redeemed himself by some mighty good fielding, and that not one of his errors cost a run, though they kept good old Elliott Dent out there working overtime in four innings. But we all do things like that. For my part. I made a particularly rotten muff of a perfect throw by Bisland, to complete a double play in the sixth inning. We had the play dead to righty, and I was so anxious to freeze the ball and make it safe that I just muffed it clean. No excuses. I’m only glad it didn’t cost anything in the way of runs. * * * THAT’S what I mean by saying we * outfought the Gulls. We certainly didn’t outplay them, though I do think Dent had it on Hogg so far as the pitching was con cerned. But in spite of our errors and their really fine defense, and in spite ol the fact that they outhit us by a small edge, we scrapped it out. run for run, right up to the last frame— and then we had the punch to put over the odd one. I RECKON you thought there that I was going to say something about the little hit I was lucky enough to get with Joe Dunn on second, with one out in the ninth. Not on your life. It’s true that 1 had a bit of luck in guessing that low curve Hogg tried to feed me with the count two and two, just after I had passed a strike of the same kind. Of course, I feel pretty good about that, coming just as it did. But I want to hand the credit to Joe Dunn, and the rest of the boys are right with me there.

I N the fifth inning of yesterday’s game between the Crackers and Gulls Umpire Rudderham benched Chapman for his run-in with Hogg. When Bill Smith substituted old re liable Joe Dunn for the youngster very few fans among the 9,000 pres ent thought that Joe was to take an active part in bringing the second game of the crucial series to the locals. For two years Dunn has been called the slowest man in the Southern League. Yet, yesterday Joe raced from first to second on a sacrifice that was fielded perfectly by O’Dell. Later, this same man scored the winning run from second on a single by Joe Agler. But I am not trying to give Dunn credit for being a fast man. It was Joe’s great head work that had as much to do with winning that gam** as Agler’s hit. Dunn took a daring chance when he started for third on the pitch. Had Agler missed the ball Dunn would surely have been caught between second andwhird. and thou sands of fans would be hailing Joe as a bonehead * * • A S it was. Dunn figured out a chance play and risked his own reputa tion to bring victory to his team. That old reliable head that took part in many an exciting game told him to dig for the plate, and he did. An other great play made by Dunn dur ing his short time behind the bat was pulled off in the sixth inning. Robert- son. the first man up for Mobile, singled to center. He took second when Welchonce fumbled the ball. Schmidt followed with a single and Robertson tallied. The Gulls were in the middle of a rally. They were fighting mad. Clark, a fast man, came up next. He pulled the unexpected, and laid down a beautiful bunt. Now, remember, practic ally everything hinged on this play. Dunn jumped up in front of the plate, grabbed the ball, and shot it on a line to second, forcing Schmidt. D UNN didn’t have a second to think when Clark laid down the ball If he threw' to first he* was sure of catching Clark. With a man on sec ond and one out the Gulls would surely be more dangerous than with one on first. Dunn realized this and took the desperate chance of making a force out. He succeeded and cer tainly deserves much credit for his nerve. Yes. it is my opinion that Joe Dunn’s brain had a great deal to do in winning yesterday’s game. And it is also a good bet that if any one asked Dent after the game who he would rather have behind the bat, Dunn or Chapman, that the Cracker hurler would pick the veteran. I am not trying to take any credit from Chapman. I really think he is one of the greatest young catchers the Southern League has ever had. I He is fast, nervy and a wonderful I fighter. But Joe burin, in a series of this kind, is worth a great deal to a team. He might not be fast, but he has the brain, and knows how* and when to pull a play. He showed it yesterday, and it is my humble opin ion that he will show it again if I i given the chance. * 1") IJRING my entire career as a baseball player I have always felt that the Atlanta baseball public was the fairest of all. Yesterday, for the first time. I had to look at a demonstration by the fans that was anything but sportsmanlike. Several of the fans threw cushions and pop bottles at the Mobile players and this will not get them anything. Remem ber. these boys are only human and deserve fair treatment. Apparently, the intense excitement got the best of some of the fans. This should be avoided. Fair play is best in all kinds of sport. P ERSONALLY, wit I am heart and soul ith the Craekem I want to see them win and am pulling for them at all times. But I don’t let my enthusiasm get the best of me. I fought in many a hot battle my self and know what it means to go on a visiting team’s grounds and be showered with pop bottles and cush ions, and I am positive that it the fans only realized what they were doing they would haye cut it out. * * * IT looks like the Mobile club intends 1 to fight to the finish. The fight ing spirit showed by the team in the closing innings yesterday was wonderful. They refused to quit at any stage of the game and I look for them to be battling harder to day than yesterday. Now. for the sake of the sport, let’s give them fair play. Overanxiousness played a great part in yesterday’s battle. All the players were trying their best at all times with the result that several of them overstepped them.‘■•elves. Smith’.- four errors were due to his anxiety to complete his play before the bail came to him. Taken all in all, it was a great game and fought on its merits. The two teams clash again to-day and let’s hope that the best team wins. plate to the platter, on that run. He looked ’em over for the base on bails that put him on. He got a good start and pulled a nice hook slide at sec ond, getting down on Dent’s sacri fice. Then he got a bigger lead off second than I ever saw Joe take be fore. And when I cut tha! little single into short right-center, Joe legged it for home at a rate that daz zled the fellows on the bench, and went in with another hook slide—• taking no chances, for he was carry ing the game, and maybe the pen nant. on his back. J OE caught Chapman nice game, too, after got into trouble. t don’t care to say anything about that, more than that I believe both Hogg and Chapman were sincere and hon est in their views, and it was too bacl that they should have had the trouble. But in a tight serieffcof this kind, one must, look for things of this kind. We are playing for blood, and so are the Gulls, and no one need come out to watch us, looking for any lad>- like shows. The Gulls are clean sportsmen. I believe, and I know our boys are, ar.d the only exhibition of raw piking seen yesterday was that of a few bum sports guying Hogg after the game. I don’t think there are many of that kind in Atlanta. But there are a few everywhere you go. * * * (17 ELL. we are up to Game 3 now — V* and we still have that old huncht that the Gulls are on the run. If we can beat them to-day— But we aren’t letting ourselves get that far ahead of the game. We have to make it play by play, you know, and we just do our best on every one. That’s all anybody can do.
