LAAGKERS N 30 PLACE,
THANKS TO LI MARGAN
By Fuzzv Woodruff.
ROUDLY perched in third place,
the highest point reached in|
considerably more than a year.i
the Crackers today go about the se
rious business of o&/g‘haullng the lead
of the Pelicana and®the Volunteers.
And incidentally the Cracke?s
achieved the perch by presenting what
will come very near to heing the
Cracker battle front for the rest of
the season. At least to the faithful,
who gather daily at Ponce Del.eon
Park., the second-base problem that
has long perturbed them has been
solved. l
For Lil Marcan had his Atlanta de
but in the opening game against the
Gulls and no society bug ever had a |
more auspicious coming-out party.
The little ex-Baron didn’t do a thing
but fleld perfectly at the keystone, an
achievement that has been rare
enough this season, as far as the
Crackers are concerned, but he
cracked out the piAch hit that sent
the two runs that won the game scur
rying across the pan.
. There is no question about it. Mar
can s destined to be as popular in
' Atlanta as a cold bottle of beer, for
‘the which 900 men assembled at
Ponce DeLeon yesterday would have .
given a healthy percentage of their
; day's earnings.
. But Marcan's value was not alone
|in his actual achievement. His pres
|enro at the kevstone seemed to cause
the entire infield to work with more‘
{dnh and assurance than it has ex-t‘
' hibited all season.
As a matter of fact, the whole club
fielded as it has never fieldad before-—
despite the fact that there are two
errorg charged to the Crackers
. .
I'l‘ was a supremely happy baseball
throng that came back from the
3-1 victory over the Gulls, It was one
of the best week day throngs that has
seen the Crackers perform, by the
way, and they were talking pennant
on street car and jitney bus, on weary
feet and in comfortable touring cars.
“Marean rounds it out perfectly”™
everybody told his neighbor until the
sentence became bromidie.
And it looked that way.
The Cracker fans were doubly glad
to see the Mobile club the vietim, for
the Cracker fans have not forgotten
the fact that it was the Mobile club
that sent the Cracker team back home
heaten three times in a row at the
opening of the season. when the faith
ful here had eu:oen-d a brilliant start
- -
L ET it be known that the Gulls have
some ball team. The recent ac
quisition of Ed Holly, who horned
into yvesterdav's game and killed
Frank Thrasher's only hit (curses),

Scott went to the hill and worked a
wonderful game, but only wonderful
work hehind him prevented the Gulls
from emerging on top. b
In the fifth round the Gulls were
treated to an overthrow of first b&n
a 4 two-base drive and a single .
they didn't count a run, which shows
that the Crackers were either mizht!%
lucky or there was some sharp fleld
ing done. A little of both figured in
the proposition. no aoukt. a
\ Burke started the inning by rapping
to Lennox. The captain had an elg
throw, but his hand or foot or some
thing slipped and he sent mebfi‘g
whizzing over Sam Mayer's i
Sammy turned like a flash and chased
Ithe plll. while Burke hustled around
the sacks. When Sam reached as
ball he whirled and made a 4
peg to third. Lennox was waiting and
Burke was killed. Swacina then fl;
lowed with a lucky double to right, 1
looked like lt‘dwna all off wv;.en Joan
Dodge crack safely to the same
fleld. Pig Casino came steaming
home and looked up just in time to
see Cyv Porkins walting with the ball.
Frank Thrasher had made a perfect
stop and throw and the Mobile slug-.
‘gn was headed off by ten yards.
And maybe there wasn't an ovatior
for the two chunkers! ]
A . . :
THF: Crackers were fust one run te
the good at this time, and there
ix no doubt hut that the two throws
saved the Jay. Frank's men took the
lead in the secold Inning. With one
down, Tex MeDonald hit an easy one
to Massey, who fumbled, and MeDons
ald was safe. He moved up on Len
nox's out and scored on MeMillan's
safe rap to center,
The game was sewed up in the Afth
MeMillan eracked out another hit and
Perkins was hit hy a pitched ball
Both runners moved up on a passed
ball while Perry was whiffing, and
then Marcan came through with his
pinch drive m: lc;or:d both runners
