the best amateur wrestling talent in the

Players Usually Do the Unexpected
in Important Games.
Contests for Championship Bring
out bright Sp0ts in Nan of
Mediocre Ability.

Have you ever noticed that the players
who showed up TO advantage in the dif-
ferent worlds series are Just the fellows
Of whom little or nothing is expected?
In the series between New York and
the Athletics there wasn't a critic who
considered for a minute that Second Base
man "Bnly" Gilbert. Of the Giants. would
be a factor in determining the winner
No one picked George Robe as the one
best bet in the White Sox hitting depart
ment In fact, very few fans or critics
thought for a minute that Robe would
play Claude Rossman was regarded as
the feeble sister Of the Tiger aggregation,
a player who would blow uD under the
strain, and IL was generally lameuted that
the Tigers didn't have classy first
sacker.
Gilbert, Rohe. and ROssman were looked
on as also rams who were just a trifie Cut
of their class. vet these three players took
a prominent part in the showing made by
their team. The work Of Gilbert auG
Robe aided largely in the Victories scored
by the New York Giants and the White
SoX. Rossman played the best game for
the Tigers by far, but his superb work
went for naught. as the Detroit team fail
ed 10 win a game.
BILLY" Gilbert was regarded as a feeble
sister at the plate yet in the series with
the Athletics no player on McGraw's team
did more timely hitting than Gilbert His
average for the season was a poor one.
but he made UP for it in the big event
with vengeance.
Robe wasn't considered en- the Cub
White S0x series. yet it was his three
base hIt with the sacks filed that enabled
the White SoX 20 win one game. His bat
ting also played a prominent part IN one
Of the other victories. An injury TO
George Davis made il necessary that
Rohe play. and. perhaps it was q good
thing for the Sox that the veteran was
injured.
Rossman was the life Of the Detroit
team in the series with the Cubs He
feded the base in regular Hal Chase
style, and made such hitters as Cobb and
Crawford look like pair Of bush
leaguers. in fact. he was the only NOM
Der of the Tiger team. excepting. per

class. His swat average was something
like 400 for the five games

Nick would be used in the opening game
