into the air and made a desperate
lunge at the BAH with his right hand
The ball stuck, and when he came

the second bag. That put two men out

had just started for third
But young Smith was not yet satis-

out assistance OF any kind young
Smith made a record which is unique
among bali players.
That triple play seemed to take all
the starch out OF the Reds. II also had
the effect Of steadylng down the VIII

cient nerve and courage to play to the
best of their ability.
Reese. the scrub pitcher struck out

the end Of the game the famous play

BRAINS IN BASEBALL
They Count There Just tho Same as in
Everything Else.


Brains count in baseball as much as
they do IN anything else. says II. M. IL.
in the Chicago Tribune. The man who
can take In the whole situation at a
glance and at the same instant suit his
actions to his thought win win games
where an equally good player who does
not think win lose them.
Here is an instance which stands
alone in all the annals of baseball
with n single exception.
In the days when the Cincinnati
Reds were at the top of the heap they
went up to Wilmington, Ohio, to play
an exhibition game. The Wilmington
team was made up entirely OF amateur
players. The Wilmington pitcher was
a young chap named David Reese, and
the Wilmington second baseman was a
college boy named Lynne Smith. It
was young Smith who turned out to be
the hero Of the most sensational play
ever made in the national game.
The Reds went up to the little town
in the fun flush of success. determined
to have a lot Of sport with the local
players. The Reds won the toss and
went to bat. Young Reese, the Will
mington pitcher, was a first-class anna
teur, but naturally he was badly ratified
at the idea Of facing the best team in
the National League, and for the best
few minutes his work was poor.

to bat hit base hits. The third man go
