ARCHER, CUB BAcKsToP,
IS PROVING SECOND king
Manager Griffith Considers Chicago
Catcher One Of Best Throwers
in the Game. "a

Jimmy" Archer of Chicago is the
greatest throwing catcher in the
world, according to Clarke Griffith of
Cincinnati. "Griff" has been Sweet
on the sturdy backstop for several
years, and declares that had he not
been in Montana when Detroit asked
waivers on Archer the catcher would
never have been permitted to leave
the American league. Had he been
taken to New York with the High
landers he would have been widely
known as one of the leading big-mitt
artists of the profession.
If 1 had that fellow I'd work him
every day just to watch him peg" said
"Griff, "and there is not another man
in his class when it comes to shooting
the ball. He is faster than chain
lightning, and he never has to take
step to get the ball to any of the
bases. Killing isn't in it when it comes
to keeping the runners glued to the
bags"
1t is said that this "flat-footed"
throwing of "Jimmy's" which is SO
much admired by many baseball men

GOOD BASEBALL PLAYERS z.
-, ARE m GREAT DEMAND
Leagues All Over the Country
Constantly on the Watch for
Good Men. :

There never was time In my base
ball experience Of many years when
there was ssuch q strong demand for
good baseball players" said AL Tear
ney, president Of the Amateur Mana
gers league of Chicago recently In dis
cussing d handful of kilograms that
he had just received from different
sections of the middle west.
Tearney is in touch with hundreds
Of ball players all over the country,
and when they are idle they make
his place their headquarters.
Pitchers especially are needed by
all of the minor league teams and al
most any price is paid for them If they
are little above the grade called fair, :"
Tearney said. 1T is no trouble at
all for the good men of the business
to get the extreme salary limit in good
towns just as long as they can deliver
the goods.
'But it is hitters that are snapped
up quicker than anything else. Any.
body that can send out the long drive
is signed Immediately at good price.
Fielders there are in plenty and they
do not carry so much weight. You
see, almost any. ball player can field
the ball in good style, but when it
comes to hitting they mostly all fall
down.
> II try not to make business Of
this, but the clubs are constantly tele.
graphing me for men and I send lots
of them away. Just now the Three
I league seems to be remarkably hard
up for men, and the managers are
actually imploring In their tone.s 1t
certainly is banner year for the good
ball player" -

Clark Griffith has been branded
"nerviest manager in baseball by
Business Manager Bancroft of the
Cincinnati club. The move which
aroused the indignation of the Gin
cinnati fans, although later it brought.
forth rounds of commentator, has
been stamped by Bancroft as - the
most daring play of the season. This
Is what he did-took Miller Higgins
of second base and put Dick Egan on
At first glance that may not, Seem
like such a daring step, but; it was.
Higgins was the idol of the Redtown.
fans. He was looked upon as one Of
the best second.sackers in the league.
and there were many who thought
Griffith crazy when he made the shift,
But he wasn't, as developments have
proved. When Cincinnati opened with
the Cubs in May, Higgins was play
ing at second and Egan at short.

some, time, and decided he was .
great player. He had another young
ster, Downey, who was fast, and who
Griffith disliked to keep on the bench.

shifted Egan to second and sent Dow

TRIPLE PLAY BECOMING
!: COMMON in BASEBALL

Several years ago and up to-
the present season a triple play :;
was practically unheard Of In or.
. ganized baseball. They could
be counted on the fingers of one
hand for a season. The cam
paign of 1909 will go down In
history as a record breaker for
I triple plays. Three have been
made in the American league
alone, but the best play of all
happened at Cleveland when
Ball pulled one off unassisted.
Triple play features have opened
up on the Pacific coast league.
In a game between San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles the other
day peculiar and off triple
play was made. With runners
on first and second, McArdle hit
a terrific line drive to deep left
center and appeared to be
sure triple. Carroll made
good catch of the ball, and the
rest was easy. for the baserun-
ners were far around the paths
when the ball was caught, and
could not get back to their
bases ahead of the throw.

Is what cost Jimmy" his job with
Detroit. Jennings, manager OF the
J. Tigers, is said to have undertaken to
coach him to throw, and that because
James showed preference for his
natural style rather than that desired
by the hee-haw boss, release to Buff
falo followed. ESs5
Archer caught the final game Of the
1907 worlds series, and attracted the
attention of Chance at the time. His
faultless. snappy throwing kept the
Cubs from stealing; and had them div
ing to the bags each time they hap
pened to stroll four feet from the
cushion. Last season when the team
was going east, on an off day, Chance
stopped over at Buffalo to watch Nc
Cornell, spitball singer. -
About the fourth inning a friend
who was with Chance said:
"Wel. what do you think Of the
pitcher?" -. &c. S@s,@s
"Pitcher!" exclaimed Chance. Its
the catcher I've been watching"
The catcher was Archer, and nego-}
tiations were opened for his purchase
Immediately. -
Several months later, when the
peerless leader was in California, he
learned that Archer had risen from a
sickbed to catch Mcconnell on that
day, as the other Buffalo backstops
had positively refused to bang them
selves up in stopping the spitters.
This convinced Chance that James is
just as full Of grit as he is good at
throwing.
