when the averages are issued by President
Young the Senators right fielder, Buck
Freeman, will lead the procession. He has
played enough games to entitIe him to rec
ognition, and his figures will place him in
the lead. Freeman's percentage is now well
over the 400 mark. and with only five
games to play he will hardly drop back
in the 300 class
The spectators INDUCED in hearty laugh
at Jud Smiths expense when he turned
to catch a base runner off at first and found
he had gone to second on the throw to the
initial bag. Smith is not first baseman,
and is raw in that position. Charley Far
rell, with all his experience. made the same
foolish mistake several weeks back while
playing first
Boston can play winning ball." said An
son, simply because the team is made up
OF f1rst-class men. There is not weak
spot in the makeup, and. like Baltimore
they play the game for all in sight"
we haven't had close decision in three
months, said jesse Burkett of the Cleve-
lands. Il never was as tired of a base ball
season as I am of this one. We have been
going 1t ever since March g. Most of the
time we have been without a home. With

Boston again today.
Special ladies day" today
baltimore has still small chance.
Dineen has lost majority of his games
this season through bad first inning
Nichols gave an apt illustration yesterday
of the slang phrase Just as easy"
Lowe, Collins and Long made nice plays
yesterday for the Bostons, the chances be-
ing hard-hit ground balls.
Manager Irwin was 10th to let Mercer go
out OF the game yesterday. Win wanted to
quit after the first inning, as his ankle
still panied him. You're due for hit this
time up said Irwin. Make it and I'll let
you out" Winnie dumped the ball artis-
tfcally, beat it out and Gettman relieved
him the next inning.
Selbach's catch of Bergen's fly back of
the haberdashery sign was of the most SEN
sational order. A majority of the specta-
tors thought the ball would strike the sign
out of reach of the little German, but 1t
just missed the board, and Sci made the
catch with high jump in the air.
The comparison of the support given
Nichols and Dineen will account for great
many Of the tallieS that went up to Boston 5
credit. The Beaneaters lost nothing. while
every one of the Senators infield allowed
balls to get by him that should have been
captured. Nichols Is veteran, but it is
question whether his work would have
compared with Dineen under the same dis
heartening circumstances.
Gettman had hardly relieved Mercer In
center field when Jimmy Collins sent line
~ into center that was ticketed all over
fer safe territory. The Texas ranger set
sail for the ball and pulled 1t down after a
long run. Jake is emphatically all right ii

PROSPECTIVE DEALS.

and q Cash Consideration.


and a Cash Consideration.
While neither Mr.. Brush nor Capt. Ewing
will corroborate tho current stories that
Win. Mercer of Washington and Lave Cross
of st. Louis are being negotiated for by
the Cincinnati club. Mr. Brush does not
make a positive denial of the statements.
He says that the deals have not been
closed, but does not say that they will not
be. Capt. Ewing says there are no deals
on. President Brush said on Sunday that
the club was negotiating for players, but
that in no case mad negotiations progressed
so far as to make deal certain. That the
Cincinnati club Is anxious to strengthen for
next season is certain. That 1t expects to
get it's additional strength from seasoned
timber Is equally certain. And that in
creased batting strength is what the club
most desires is another undeniable fact.
Mercer and Cross would go a long way to
rounding out the team Mr.. Brush and
others interested In the Cincinnati team
desire to see it.. The proposed deal, as it is
understood, will bring Cross here for a
pitcher and a cash consideration. Charlie
Irwin and more cash will be given to Wash
ington for Mercer. The Cleveland-St. Le lis
combination has two third basemen besides
CrosS-Wallace and Burke-who was pur-
chased from Milwaukee. The deal wo lid
benefit all concerned, and there is but lit
tie doubt but that 1t will be carried through
Cincinnati Commercial.
