BETTING against the Memphis BlsC-
ba Club isn't such soft enap as IL
used TO be.
BLACK made four clean hits yester-
day. He will not play to-day. We
may miss him.
SANITY, the new shor. stop, makes
Rs debut to-day. 1t be fills the bill,
clear the track for the Browns.
BASEBALL clubs ramed after touics,
bitterJ or other noslrums in search of

THURSDAY we tackle Savannah, We
are sure to win two games from her,
may win three, and have fighting
chance for fur. Boar that in mind.

MANAGER 0'BRIRN OF the Augusta
Club says he could win the pennant
without trouble ii-if he only had
such pitchers az Knouff, Black aud
0'Leary. Level.headed man that
0'Brien.
PHRLAN did great work at second
yesterday, in spite Of two excu'able
iumbles charged to him. Six put outs,
one OF them q long fly caught on u
run, and three assists, is something to
be proud Of.
sNERD is sue patent slugger Of the
Memphis nine. It's very cold day
| in May when he fails to get in q hit.
The olly man that wordes him is
Mikado Baker. That inBinuating
smile Of the Japanere pitcher paralysis
Speed.
MEMPHIS is now tixth in the league
and only four games behind Savan-
nah in won games and six in lost
games. This gap is easy to fill up,
aud we look for tho Browns do 1t be-
fore they leave home.
If Andrews doesn't stop knocking
the ball over the right field fence the
price of home Iuns will 40 down In
the market. The price has gone up
from s25 Friday to $50 yesterday, but
these figures will not be sustained II
Augusta remains with US long.
In our report OF Saturdays game VIC
said that O'Laar gave Kappel ball
which Though hit at with all the
vigor in him, never went further than
third bGse The intelligent composltor
made II read Though hit well at the
yigor 10 him never went further"
WHITEHEAD and Phelan are regain
ing their batting form. The former
made a safe hit aud the latter hi
three times, one q long fly to left tie d
which would have been good for
base hit but for II ogan's splendid catch
Whitehead and Phelan will make
tome pitcher sick yet
KREHMEYER played in hard luck
Yesterday. He ant ball to center
field within two feet Of the fence and
lacked lust that much OF making @
home run, the hall hitting the fence
and only netting two bases. When
Krehmeyer crossed the home plate he
said: Just my luck; home runs are
worth s47 SO and q bouquet to-day
and l only missed 1t two feet"
