Louis
The Sox will enter the battle for the
pennant with the same victorious
squad that brought home the bunting
last season. In the pitchers box will
be Ed Walsh, Patterson, Altrock, Smith
Owen, Doc White and other expert
twirlers. Sullivan and Mcfarland will
continue behind the plate. Jiggs will
hold down the initial bag. the lengthy
Isbell will play second and Tennehill
will occupy the third station. George
Davis will remain at short. The outer
garden will be presided over by Jones,
Hahn and Dougherty. Several promis-
ing youngsters, as we'll as the substi-
tutes of last year, were taken on the
Mexican trip, but stand little chance of
getting in the regular lineup.
st Louis OF.
st. Louis, Mo-, Mar. 5.-Both St.
Louis teams make their getaway for
the Texas training camps today, the
Cardinals going to Fort Worth and
the Browns to Marlin Springs. So
far as the Nationals are concerned,
the hope that springs perennial in the
hearts of all baseball fans is dead in
Budweiser town. Occasionally some
near-fan talks of the Cardinals land
ing in the first division, but anyone
indulging in the belief that McClos-
keys squad will grab the rag would
Immediately be given berth in the
home for incurable bugs. Gloom
reigns supreme in the Cardinal camp
and the general belief here is that
they will make a hard fight for the
tail-end position and will probably get
it. The Browns find more favor il
the eyes of the fans and unless the
dope fails they will make a strong
bid for the American league bunting.
The Cardinals have been given a
severe shaking-up by McCloskey, many
of the disgruntled players of last
years squad having been given their
walking papers, but the general result
has not been highly pleasing. Many
aspirants to major league llonors will
be given try-out on the Texas trip.
The pitchers of known ability include
McGlynn, Beebe, Browns and Karger.
Grady, Noonan and Marshall will be
seen behind the plate. Beckley, Ma
tional league veteran Of twenty years
standing, will probably cover first,
with Bennett at second, Zimmerman
at third and Holly at short. The out
fielders include Barry, Murray and
O'Hara.
Jim McAleer, manager of the
Browns, has gotten together likely
bunch of players. The pitching staff
includes jacobson, Glade, Powell, Pei
ty, Howell and several other lesser
lights. Among the catchers are Spen-
Ger, Richey and the veteran O'Connor.
Jones will play first, Niles probably
at second, Wallace at short and Dele
hanty, formerly with the Cincinnati
Reds, at third. Stone, Hemphill and
Pickering, new man, will likely be
the outfielders. The season of ex-
hibition games will open with the San
Antonio Texas league team next Sat-
urday.
