Tho baseball season Is ended and New York
has not won tho pennant Tho team In the
rentle springtime was expected to walk away
With the bunting. while tho other teams looked
on In helpless astonishment The result has
not justified these rosy expectations. In fact,
most Of the helpless sstonishment has been
in possession Of tho New York players.
and third place is all they have to
show for their seasons work. When
one comes to scan third place closely II
Isn't no bad position as might be i'm
aeined. It does not possess all tho charming
attrsctlveness Of first place. nor yet has It the
honorable solidity Of second position. but II 10
immeasurably superior to fourth place, and
the Inhabitants Of Wanamakervillo may as
veil understand that their baseball heroes are
not AS tall as those Of New York. With third
plsce. then. the baseball cranks OF the metrop-
oils must OF necessity be content until another
mery ball season rolls around and tho en-
thusIasts are again buoyed up with hopes Of
success.
There are great many theories - to the
Causes leading to the defeat Of the New Yorks.
and nearly everybody interested has expressed
an opinion. It will interest patrons to know
the Vows Of the men who managed the teams
affairs tho season Just closed. They are John
b. Day. William 81. Ewing. and James H.
Mutre. When President Day was asked By .
suN reporter for his opinion a. to the reasons
for New York's failure to land the pennant he |
said:
It's because the newspapers Of this city |
haven't supported rs"
Manager Mutris said the pennant was lost |
simply as result Of accidents to players. |
Capt. Ewing echoed Manager Mutrie's
opinion. and the players. almost to man. held
to the same view.
The League race Is finished. and Boston II
the victor. The surprising feature after
Boston's sensational success. Is the astonishing
way in which Pittsburgh Topped In to last place
month ago that team was considered good
for nth. but It took one OF those unsccount-
able drops and fell into the eight hole on the
