TOO MANY PLAYERS

The New York Giants. who have a
long lead for the National league pen-
nant, are a living proof of the often
heard argument that baseball teams of
the present day carry too many men,

added a fourth to his STAFF IN Wiltse
who has demonstrated his right to
take his turn with McGinnity, Math-
ewson ana Taylor The Philadelphia
American is the only other club which
has used SO few pitchers this season,
and some clubs have pitched as many
as nine different men.
There is no question but that taD
tendency is TO carry too many pitchers
and that many twiriers would be more
effective If used ottener SO as TO keep
ia better physical condition and retain
better control of their delivery. But Il
is not true that the New York club
owes all Of its success to the small
number of pitchers It has used. Me
Graw's pitchers have doubtless done
better work than they could have done
il working only once IN seven or ten
days, but McGraW has needed cousid-
