COMMENT ON SPORTS
GIANTS FIGHT PIR4TES.
Important Series for Leadership Of
Leagues Begins To-day.

This afternoon the Pirates and the Giants
begin the series which will probably decide
whether the pennant will come to New York or
go to Pittsburg Half a game separates these
teams this morning. The battle for the cham
pionship has now narrowed down to these two
teams The Chicago Cubs, champions of the
National League for the last two years. and
worlds cha mpons bv virtue of their victory over
the Detroit Tigers last year, are practically out
of the race. Philadelphia has too large handi-
cap to make up at this stage Of the race. So
New York and Pittsburg left for the final
clash. These two teams bitter enemies, and,
no matter what their standing in the race. they
have always fought each other with tooth and
nail Now with so much at stake. the battle
will be fast and furious, with quarter asked
or given.
Pittsburs has had slightly the better Of New
York in the previous series they have played
this season The Pirates also have four points
advantage this morning. There is no such thing
form in baseball. hut II there the Pirates
would be slight favorites over the Giants They
are on their home grounds and have had time to
rest UP while the Giants have been travelling
around in hot Will the Giants take the
series9 We have feeling they will. but We are
forced to admit that loyalty to the home team
influences our opinion Slightly. Here are our
while Wagner, Clarke. Leach and Wilson have

Graw is a more experienced general than Fred
Clarke; Brooklyn took the starch out Of the
Pirates in the four great games they played last
week, while the Giants were not extended to their
limit by Cincinnati. and last. but from least
the New York pitchers at their best now,
while the Pittsburg twirlers have been under a
hard strain for weeks This dope may be all
wrong. but it is the way the New York rooters
figuring ii If the Giants win this after
noon they will jump to the front.
For years Brooklyn has been considered a
Joke. but there are two teams in the National
League which consider the Superbas a pretty
serious proposition. They play favorites, and
wallop the Giants with just much fendish
glee as they do the Pirates. Hats off TO Brook
1yni Though Donoyans men kind of rubbed it
tn just before started off this Western
trip, they more than made amends in the Smoky
City last week That was a wonderful game
brooklyn played in Pittsburg on Saturday. For
seventeen innings they battled, the Pirates
finally scoring the only run It was record
game in several respects. told yesterday. If
.t had resulted in victory for the Superbas, and
had gone only nine innings, many of us would
have been more pleased. Probably il worked to
the Giants advantage just the same, for Pitts
burg cannot help but feel the strain of seven
teen innings Of nerve raclling playing Had it
not been for the fine work of our nefghbors
across the river. the Giants would not be right
at Pittsburg's heels and in a position to pull
them back this afternoon. Brooklyn is winding
up the season in much the same way they did a
year ago.
