fixed for oatchers. Mclean. II he was
worked often enough. should make one of
the best men in the business. He is a big,
powerful. willing fellow. and one that can
surely hit the ball II he gets a chance.
Why Mclean should have been allowed to
guard the bench all eeason Is a mystery
to the fans
They would like to see him work IN the
post-season series. and he will probably
get a chance. On foul balls he !. as good
as any catcher. and he has a good throw

play.
Dave Is a great ball player. and one
that will surely show his speed against
the Browns. With the Cardinals properly
lined up they have an even break to beat
the Browns. but IL they try too many ex-
periments against McAleer's men the
Browns should win the city championship.
One thing is certain. both teams will 90

both clubs are counting much on the first

effort to capture the inaugural game of
the post-season series.
HART AGAINST sLUGaINo.
Do the people who p~atronize baseball
games appreciate those oId-time slusStng
matches and big score contests more thar
the scientific battle Of to-day in which It
is the hardest kind Of work to get a run
ner over the plate? President James A.
Hart of the Chicago National League club
argues NO." and backs up his argument
in this way:
Il have made 1t a point to talk to my

By superior generaIship and good work
on the bases, the New York Giants. not
only won the pennant of the National
League. but did SO by the greatest margin

sponsible for the great showing Of the

For at least three months before the
race was finished, New York had secured
such a lead that their victory was con-
ceded.

work with the Giants. He did not have

the American League winners a series.
BRESNAHAN A TIMELY HITTER
Bresnahan. New York's utility outield-
er, IS another clever ball player. He is a
master at hitting the ball. and Is a good
fielder. Besides he is good on the sacks,
and one of the best men in the world to
send to bat for a weak hitter when a run
or two Is needed.
Time and again has Toledo Roger
waIloped the ball at the right moment
for his team.
Mertes for a big mar is a good runner.
Insfact there are very few men in either
OF the major leagues who lave anything
on him when 1t comes to doing effective
work or the sacks.
He Ia also a great hitter and a very fair
fielder. Barring Mike Donlin, he is the
best outfeider on the Giants roster.

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC
With the regular major league seasons
closed. locally. lovers OF the great national
port here look forward with great ex-
pectancy to the post-season series between
the Cardinals and Browns which begins
to-morrow,
Which team will win Is a question that
10 hurled back and forth in fandom with
feuufrent frequency. II you ask Mr..
E3sdges he answers with a smile that
speaks volumes for the prowess Of his own
team When NJ. 8. Robson Is asked this
SEINE question he turns his head for fear
OF laughing in the i~nterTogator's face.
Both camps sre confident Of victory.
The Browns believe they will make the
Cardinals sor1 for calling themselves ma
5of league players. while the Cardinals
aver that they will teach the Browns to
keep their proper place in the future.
Pans in general look o the series
with interest They thfnk that the series
VIII not Be decided until the seventh game.
Both teams are playing a fair game OF
tsll how. and as there is much rivalry be-
tween III Cardinals and Browns a good
contest II looked for.
CARDINALS BETTER BATsMEN.
The Cardinals are unquestionabiy the
better baxsmen. On the other hand, the
Browns are letter feeders.
There IL very little difference in the
pitching departments Of both teams. but
Il eudho6 Ii in shape for the series the
Browns have a slight edge in boxmen.
IN the infield as a whole the Browns are
q bit better than the Cardinals.
Zones IL not anywhere as good a hitter as
jake BecA1ey. but he is a better fielder
and Q moro Daring player on the bases.
AZ second Padden has a slight edge on
Johnny Farrell, although there Is very lit
u TO choose between the pair.
IN the spring Danny Shay looked as
gSod a. Wallace Nobody in the world
looks n better than 'Rhody'' does now.
He II playing the game of his life. Ger
tainly Shay is a wonderful player, and one
that covers as much ground as anyone
But Wallace has It on him when It ome
to throwing. He is also a bit better with
h willow than Shay. but when it comes
to base running and speed. Shay is better
h Wallace. Both teams are well of

feet.
When McGraw traded Bahb and Cronin
for Dahlen he made a move that gave to
the Giants their present position In the
race. With a weak man at short New
York would hardly have landed the bunt-
Ing.
Devlin at third for New York started
the season in hurrah fashion. but It Is
whispered about now that he IS neither
The St. Louis Republic. [volume] (St. Louis, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1904-10-09

scrappy nor fast enough for McGraw's
tribe.
In the outfield New York has the bes,
man in the National League in Mike Don
lin. OF course. Mike is a bit Maynard at
times. but when he IS playing his game
there Is not a man In the Pulliam league
who has got anything OF him.
Donlin is one Of the fastest men In the
country on his feet. His ability to hit
any and all kinds OF pitching is well es-
tablished. When Donlin broke into the
game he was not a very clever fielder. but
now he can chase flies with any of nem
and throw the ball for assists with great
precision.
Donlin's record for the season proves
him to bel one Of the best men in the
business.
Although Mike has not been played
regularly he would be found in every

would interfere greatly with their speed
and thus cripple them in one Of their
strongest positions.
Griffith's catchers would hardly Be able
to stop the feet-footed men Of McGraw.
Kleinow can throw pretty well. but
against tho Giants he would be liable to
the rattIes and thus lose his effectiveness.
Although the Giants are not liked. IL
must be admitted hat they are one OF the
best balanced teams in the history Of
baseball.

as q lion. He has pitched more games
than any twirler in the National League

les is considered the best workman in the
National League.

, When It comes to speedy runners, New
York has in George Brown perhaps
the fastest man in the major leagues.
He shares Bays reputation for fieetnes,
Of foot, and many OF the New York crit
les avow that he IS faster than the
| Cleveland Spider.
Once in his career Brow defeated
Weekes, the Columbia University crack
Splinter.
Where New York is particularly strong
is in the pitching department. Mathew
son and McGinnity are a pair OF twirlers
to be proud of. They are the crack pair
OF the National League. Both are big
strong fellows and willing to stand the
gafr. Perhaps McGinnity is the greatest
consecutive worker in the game.
McGINNITY A WONDER
He is interchangeable. The Springfield
