very speedy on the bases and leaves
nothing to be desired in the infeld.
This midget infielder is if anything
better fielder than Laporte, far bet

department than his more experienced
rival. He led the Eastern league in
stolen bases in 1907. was the leading
run getter, made within two as many
base hits as the leading clouter in that
league. getting 1853 hits, and he hit for
something like .319.

splendid work.
For the Red Sox the veteran Cy
seems destined to have a great year.
He has still that wonderful control
and speed that have made him the pre-
mier pitcher for decade. Morgan is
in grand form, Winter is coming along
fast, and Pruitt seems like far strong
er man than he was last season.
Burchell has yet to make good. and
Cicotte so far has only pitched one
full game. but at least one Of this
pair is bound to win his spurs.
Behind the bat both teams are
strong, Bowerman, Graham and Ball
making a great receiving trio for the
Doves. while Criger. Carrigan. McFar
