AL Maui will probably pitch for the Bal
tinores today. while Donovan will go on
the rubber for his first full try out for
the Senators. The Washington players are

he will be a wonder before the season is

The baltimore papers are harping on the
opinion that the Orioles are a club of stars
and for that reason will not play to-
gether. If there are any stars in
that bunch. outside of Keller, Kelley
and McGraw. they have failed to twinkle
at National Park during the past three
games. Jennings is simply a dead one,
and Robinson is too fat. The remainder
are ordinary players.
The echo of another goldbricking is
heard in the vicinity of Washington Earle
Wagner has turned Ano,e adrift. DR. Nc

Anole was not considered in the Baltimore
trade at all. McJames and DeMontreville
were traded for Doyle and Reitz Hanlon
needed first baseman and McGann was
thrown in. Wagner thought he needed a
left handed pitcher, and he was given the
choice of Amole or NOps. He chose the
former. 1t was admitted at the time thai
McGaEn was a good nan, but the trade
proper, two for two, has never been re-
gretted for second. Any one that wants
to get true line on the trade should put
out a feeler among the Baltimore players
Jack Doyle is feeling pretty chesty and
he has right to.-Baltimore Herald
The first of today's games was lost by
bad fielding. The unfortunate injury to
Jennings arm, which renders it necessary
to play him at second base, is sadly handi-
Gaping the team. Second base and short
stop are now the weak points of the team,
and right at these points many a game
has been lost. DeMonlreville and Jennings
made four of Baltimore's six errors in the
first game, and those errors allowed Wash
fCgton to score the winning runS.-Balti-
more Herald.
Manager Hanlon expects to sign a we'll
known ball player as extra man and to
take Holmes place in the outfield until he
is in shape to play. Holmes was tripped
by player some time ago and fell on his
shoulder, injuring himself so badly that he
was the hospital list when Mr.. Hanlon
signed him. He was not in good condition
when he began playing and is not yet,
pecially in his throwing. 1t happened yes
terday that his inability to throw handi-
capped the Orioles considerably. Mr.. Han
lon wants to give him time ito get entirely
well. and will put into the outfied for a
time at least the man he expects to sign.
The new man is expected to join the team
in Brooklyn.
Kelly went to bat twelve times in the
three Washington game this week and
made one hit. Jennings was at bat eleven
times and made one hit. De Montreville
made one hit out Of twelve times at bat
and McGraw made one hit out of ten times
at bat. Keeler made five hits in the three
games, McGann made four, including
double. The whole team made nineteen in
three games, an average OF just six and
third hits per game. Great batting that.
The three pitchers made four hits between
them, as many as McGraw, Jennings, Kei-
ley and De Montreville made in the three
games. And the pitchers were at bat only
ten times altogether, while the players
mentioned were at bat forty-five times
The Baltimore club is playing two games
at Washington today. Doyle was a happy
man this morning. and thrice happy will
he be if this evenings setting sun brings
the knowledge of another victory Won
