COMPARISON SHOWS GIANTS AND
ATHLETICS TO BE EVENLY MATCHED
tn One Department Athletics Look Best While in Another the
Giants Appear to Be Stronger. An Interesting Compari
son.
A •'blanket" comparison of the play
er* of tin* Giants and Athletic*. mho
have earned their right to battle In the
world’s ©erica. shov the two teams to
hi remarkably evenly matched. In
on© department, the Giant* s©«m to
have th© 1m «t of It, in another, the
Athletic© look stronger.
Dlsioctlng the ivuins Into th© Indi
vidual playct and counter-balancing
th© merits of the rival© at each posi
tion, we hn\c the following:
F»r*t Base.
•'Htuffy" Jock Mclones, who hold©
down the initial at at lon for the Am
erican lsoaguern, is a graduate of the
Ohio and Pennsylvania L< »ttuc, having
been picked by Connie Muck while a
youth In hi© teen*. Connie kept him
on the l>»noh more than a full season I
Ixtfor© he gave him a chance as a regu
lar. Mclnnea Immediately sprouted into
a sensational player, and the close of
th© IDU season found him playing a
rteady. dependable game, much more
satisfactory than that of the faat
witnlng veteran Harry Davis. Mein
new hit a •‘blue streak" throughout
fh© season and fielded well. Hut in
this he meet© his superior in the per
son of Fred Merkle of the Giants.
Merit!©, a native of Toledo. where he
owns a hotel, must bow before Me
Inn©* when it eon*©* to swatting the
©idler©. in all other think*. he
seems to ptwssssa and edge over his
younger rival. lie is a past master
nt the fine art of fielding and throw
ing and la one of the demon sextet of
Giant bttoerunner*.
Second Ba* e .
In this position, the Quakertowfi
team lms all the best of it. Harry
Doyle, the captain of the (Hants,
while a capable man and full of gin
ger. can hardly be put in the same
class with (be wonderful Kiddie Col
lins Hoyle is a man after MoOraw’s
own heart. He is one of the scrap
piest players in baseball a© well as ,
one of the quickest thinkers Because
of his ability to "pull off stuff." Me- i
Graw made him captain and placed !
him ©econd in the batting order, in
Which spot h< is particularly vnluabb
bee: luse he cun hit and bum with «quul
facility, and can also tak# advantage
of tui) weakness the enmity may <v
hihit. Hoyle, a foenter Three Ky lea
gue plater is a fast nfleider but not
a finished one. He gets over vn©
ground with all the speed necessary.

defensively. That is where Collins
has it "on" Doyle. The Columbia
» rnduato is not only a spectacular
fielder, but a conn latent one. He sel
dom bobbies easy chances. Although
Doyle i« a capital hitter and base
runner, he must bow before Collins In
these departments also In the last
analysis, about the only point, of su
premacy possosed by Doyle is his ag
gressiveness, Collin towering above
him in everything else.
Shortstop.
Arthur Fletcher, th© Belleville, Til.,
youth, who fills this most imi*»rtant
Infield Job for the (Haute. Is fast. wiry
and quick to else up s situation. He
him » good whip and fields flashily,
hits ha l and regularly and speeds
'about the bases In good stylo. Jack
Harry, the Athletics* shortstop, docs
nil these things just about ns well as
Fletcher and is, If anything, a bet
ter man to send to bat tn a pinch, Har
ry's experience makes him more valu
able in an Important series than th*
Now Yorker whose .true mettle has not
\i t revolved an adequate test. Connie
Mack would bet his life that Harry
will play top-notch bail In this world’s
scries, even at he played Inst year,
1 it McGraw would not venture such h
wager on Hotelier. This youngster
is nothing like the "sure thing** that
Harry is. Fletcher may prove the
sensation of the Herb's, or he may prove
a dismal failure when . under such
Mtresa McGraw may deeply regret
having trailed away AI Hr id well, or
he may he the happiest man In the
world when be recall© the incident.
Third Baas.
Both Athletics and Giants have great
youngsters working at third, base
Charley Heriog, who was secured by
McGrow from Boston in the famous
midsummer deal, after ha\ In* been
sent to Boston font New York the pre
vious year, plays a dnshtng, • agree
>t\c. snappy game in the field and
displays the same spirit at bat and on
th e paths. Since he replaced the vet
eran Arthur Devlin, he has performed
at the far corner In practically the
same style as his predeceaor. prob
ably he does not cover quite as much
..round as the Devlin of three years
ago, but he is quicker at ridding him
self of the ball after he grabs It *»e
fields a bunt well and is one of the
*p«edle*i of all third baieimn at
i basing foul balls Herxog s fielding
is every bit as good as that of FYank

any better percentage than the for
mer Baltimore boy, but his clouts are
longer. H© Is the Frank Schulte of
the American League and If disap
pointed when he falls to slam out a
homer. This tendency to break up a
game with circuit smashes puts him
ahead of ifarsog in all-around value.
OutfWd'
Four good outfloMers ore on the
payroll of each of the rival clubs. New
York has dark Murray, Jo©h Devore,
Fred Snodgrass ami Beals Booker;
Philadelphia hoa Rub© Old ring, Danny
Murphy, Brisco© Lord, and Amis
Strunk, And algo a fifth one Topsy
llartKSl, to use tn a ptnoh In case the
old-timer wore needed.
The regular trio of the Athletics,
Oldring, Murphy and Lord, form on©
of th© most dependable garden squads
In th w American League. When Old
rlng war kept out of the last world’s
series by injuries, young Strunk prov
ed himself to b© no lemon by hitting
harder than either of Ms side-part
ners, but he is not cut finished a field
er ns any on© of the three regulars.
ll© covers more ground than they be
cause of his excessive floetneH* of
foot, but h© is prous to bobble an ©tisy
chance occasionally. However, it is
almost h certainty that he will be
used in at least on© of th© champion -
ship gnmos
Murphy is a particularly dashing
and brilliant fl©l<l©r and is probably
the best man in Connie Mack's second
line of defense. Lord and Oldring
are less picturesque tn their perform
ances and ar© more along the type of
th© steady, unchanging plodder.
Whan th© Giant regulars, Devore.
Hnodgrass and Murray, or© going in
their natural stride, th©y look much
better than Conn!© Mack’s men. De
vore is on© of the best sprinters in
baseball, and his partner* are almost
his equals in this respect Decor©
loads the Giant sextet of base pil
ferer* and th* other two outfielders
are also members of the sensational
six. Murray is the long distance
slugger, while Snodgrass is the most
consistent swatter of th© trio. Heals

his lack of brilliancy. Meyers has a
remarkable whip to second, and when
he controls it the opposition’s run
ners arc kept close to the bass
throughout the game.
Several men could be picked from
both leagues who figure superior to
both Meyers and Thomas. There is
little to choose between these two
Wilson may relieve Meyers in one or
more of the games, while Jack Lapp
and Paddy Livingston probably will
appear for the Philadelphians. Sizing
up tlie two catching staffs, the Giants
look a little better because of greater
ability, the argument being about even
otherwise.
Pitchers.
McGraw relies on two pitchers—Rube
Marquard and Christy Mathewson,
while Connie Mack has three deponda
bles in Eddie l’lank, Chief Bender and
Jack Coombs.
Coombs, the Colby College boy, who
did such grand work In the 1910
championship games, has made a cre
ditable record tills year, but somehow
does not now seem as effective as he
was on that occasion.
Chief Bender looks better than ever.
The big Indian has taken part in two
world’s series us a member of the
Athletics. He won the only Phil
adelphia victory over the Giants in
1905. beat the Cubs in the opener last
year and later lost a game to them
in that aeries after it had gone ten in
nings to a tie. Bender has a world of
“smoke" on the ball and, when he has
hl« control, If almost invincible.
Eddie Plank.
Kddk* Plank, who did not start a
game in the series against the Cubs,
will likely get plenty of chance to
show his wares against the Giants,
lie has been bowling along at a rapid
rate, doing better against the strong
teams than against the weak ones, and
for this reason, Connie Mack expects
him to be of special value when turn
ed loose on the Giants.
Plank's record is better than that of
any other left-hander now pitching. In
ten seasons that he has worked in the
American League, he has kept his per
centage above the half-way mark ev
ery time except one. In 1908 he fell
to .467. His highest average of games
won was hung up in 1905 when he won
24, lost 12 and finished with a mark
of .760.
Mathcweon’s record is the only one
of any pitcher now working that sur
passes that of Plank for consistent of- :
rectiveness during the ten-year period.
The Athletics have, besides these three |
mainstays, Cy Morgan, and Harry
Krause, but it is unlikely that either ;
"ill be seen in action against the.
Giants.
Taken as a complete twirling corps,
the Athletic boxnien are stronger than
! the Giants, but in a single sc ties such
las the championship games. McGraw
! seems to be better fixed, as his two
I stars. Mathewaon and Marquard can
alternate, and both of them seem
[stronger than any of the Mackmen.
Mat hew son’s wonderful record is too
well known to necessitate comment.
Hi* mid-season slump, which was
short-lived, did not show that the big
fellow has gone back. To the con
trary. he has twirled just as good ball
in the latter part of the season as he
did at any stage of his career.
He was the chief factor in the de
feat of the old Athletics In 1905 and
appears to have even more cunnings,
now than then. His "fade-away" has
been acquired since that time, and h«
should l>*» able to win over the Ath
letics if the Giants can score as many
as three runs behind him.
Marquard, the sensation of the year,
will be as effective as Mathewson, If
rot more so. in event that his control
is with him.

acceptable work if either of the Giants’
king-pins are knocked from the box.
George "Hooks" Wiltse, the veteran
left-hander and "Red" Leon Ames are
not likely to be used at all. Louis
Drucke, the sensational Texan of 1910,
who disappointed New York fans this
year, and the youngster Maxwell, who
are the other members of McGrow's
staff, are doomed to bench duty.

MERCER BAPTIST LOST
TO CITADEL 5 TO 0
Savannah, Ga.—Citadel’s game,
speedy little football eleven sprung a
surprise on Mercer in their annual
gridiron battle here today, beating the
Baptists from Macon 5 to 0 aft r 48
minutes of gruelling play under a hot
sun.
The lone touchdown came three
minutes «iter the start of the fourth
period, when Gibson for Citadel block
ed and recovered a punt by Irwin and
sped over 15 yards to the goal line.
Citadel outplayed its heavier oppo
nents and deserved the victory though
the lone touchdown was a lucky one.
Irwin, halfback for Mercer, was the
individual star of the game, gaining
almost as much ground as the run
ners of both elevens combined.
