GOSSIP

Baseball may be a faster game in
some particulars than it was in the
SOS or '90s, but It is undeniably true
that in two important particulars
base running and returning the ball
from the outield--it has slowed up
wofully. There is no Harry Stovey, no
Jakey Evans in the game now. Many
present day fans remember stovey Of
the old Athletics. Not quite so many
recall Evans Of the old Cleveland
team, when the elder Wesley, Charles
Bulkley, and George w. Howe were
the owners Season after season
Evans, who played in right field, held
the record for outfieId assists, and al
ways a big percentage Of these assists
we're made in throwing batters out at
first. Jatey knew the batters Of that
period BITTER than any outRelder-ex-
cepting possibly Fielder Jones, Jack
Mccarthy and Billy Keeler-knows
them to-day, and laid for them with
an intuition Of where the ball would
be that was marvellous. Nowadays 1t
happens once or twice season that
batter is thrown out aI first by the
right fielder after an apparently safe
hit. Evans once made three such as
sists In a single series. And all the
time, from the beginning to the end
Of the season. he was whipping the
bali to second, third. and home with
a speed and accuracy that has neyel
been equaled or approached. Harry
Stovey scored 1873 runs in the Ameri
can association in 1882 He led al
the fast base runners OF the Brother
hood in 1890. He was the champion
base runner Of the world in 1887, 1885,
and 1889. He stole second base al
most as easily as the modern playe
goes down from first on sacriiic'
hit. No, it's mighty fast game w
see in these days ot peace, but Their
are no Jake Evanses nor Harry Ste
veys in the game to-day.
