The Boston players take pride in the
fact they have the best first baseman
baseball ever knew. Tenney undoubt-
eddy holds that place. Every first
class first baseman should be a left
handed man." says Herman Long.
Bill Clark. "A left-handed man at first
has a big bunch on a right-hander. He
has all the other players to the right
of him, and when he picks up a ball
he is right in position to throw to any
of them. With a right-handed man it
is different; he has to turn to make a
throw"
Scientific batting is fast pushing the
sluggers to the rear. Tenney, Keller,
Burkett, McGraw, Kelly and Beaumont
are batsmen of the progressive order,
who try to place the ball and hit at the

With cut on his forehead, received
Thursday, and knee so badly injured
that he could scarcely walk, Jack went
into the game Sunday, says Charlie
Zuber, suffering eXcruciating pain
every time he moved. A foul tip struck
him on the foot, and though most
catchers would have found in that suf-
hcient excuse to retire, he pluckily re-

There are many points of similarity

patronize the game literally, and both
teams have failed to fulfill the expec-

1t is estimated that the New York
club will drop at least $4,000 on the
season. The salary list, incidental ex-
penses and rent of the broad meadow
under the lea of Coogans Bluff makes
the Freedman plant the costliest in the
league. SEX
1t is the unanimous sentiment of the
Philadelphia players that Lajoie should
be allowed time ITO fully recover, and
that he should not be permitted to play
until he is all right again. They argue
that the Philadelphia club cannot run
the risk of a setback to Larry" whose
presence on the team, they declare, is
one-third of it's strength.
You fellows don't play ball; there is
too much 'bunteration' and such fool

Schmidt, the 'cemical pitcher to Nc
Graw. This was after the orioles had

until he was desperate.
The New York Telegram man says
Seymour didn't pitch ball against Chi
cago recently until a fan yelled out
that he had $4,000 arm and a scent
head. Then he got mad and worked the
control perfectly.
Holmes of Baltimore has a record in
left field of Sc put-outs in seven games,
probably the biggest of the season.
Andrew Freedman denies that he is
connected with the alleged anti-league
movement, and says he will stick to the
10-year compact to a finish, even if his
room is preferred to his company by
his brother magnates.
