THE PROBABLE LINEUP
BY A. E. DUNNING


This afternoon at Chutes park dla.
mond, nine of the top-notchers Of the
American league, composing the same
team which faced the Detroit Tigers
in the series which settled the league
championship, will meet the Angels
With the exception of the positions o
shortstop and catcher, every man WhC
will appear against Los Angeles was
an active participant in the American
league title play. At short CONNIE
Mack has placed Mcbride shortstoI
of the Washington Americans. He Is
substituting for the regular player
Barry. who was left at home on ac-
count of injuries he sustained in the
final terrific battle with the nghtlne
Tigers. As one of the catchers Mack
has obtained Donohue of the Boston
Americans, Livingstone having beer
left behind on account OF INJURIES
With these two exceptions. Mack ha'
brought out his team intact 1t Is
therefore practically the same machine
which gave the Michigan team such a
sensational fight at the windup Of the
Krause May Pitch
The lineup as given above is as
nearly accurate as can be obtained Tor
such a contest, which is purely an
exhibition affair, and in which the an
nounced list is subject to change with
out notice on entering the game. IL
is believed that Mack will place Krause
the young Californian, in the box III
the opening day game. Krause has a
big following in the west, and all this
wear the fans this side of the big hill-
have watched the work of the young
pitcher with interest and delight al
his splendid showing.
one of the big attractions of the
game will be Eddie Collins, the Atm
letics' second baseman and star hltfet
Collins fought Cobb neck-and-nec'
race for the batting honors in the
American league all season, ana los
the position by a narrow margin. He
is regarded as one of the most promls-
ing hitters in the game, and his pres
ence opposed to the Angels tWirler'
is awaited with much interest.
owing to the fact that several OF the
Angels will go into big league company
next season, the baseball p1bic in the
south is anxious to see how they com
pare with the men who have been per
forming in the big brush all winter
Delmas. Orendorff and Beall are con-
sidered the equals of many Of the mer
holding down their positions in tNe
majors, and the opportunity to see the
best of the easterners working opposed
TO the Angels stars Is too GOOD to miss
Five Games in Series
The Angels and the Athletics viii
play five games. beginning with to-
DAYS game. They will depart Sunday
night or Monday morning for Sar
Francisco. and will finish the week In
the north. Beginning Wednesday, NO
vember TO- the National League All
stars, composed of the best men In
that organization. will play similar
series with the Angels.
In addition to Krause and Plank
Mack is bringing along with him Chief
Bender the great Indian twirler, whose
work against the Ulcers Is better
known among the schoolboy fans thar
is their history Of the Revolution
Morgan and Coombs also are on th'
pitching staff All are in good trim
as is evidenced from the m9nner In
which they have been constantly win
ming from the Al-Nationals on theiI
transforming tour into the west,
Though the members of the team VIII
be big attractions, the man Of them al
who is. the center of interest is the
shreWd, thin, nervous manager, Connie
Mack, whose real name be il known
As McGnncuddy. Mack is regarded as
one of the cleverest and brainiest man
ayers in the big leagues, which means
in the game as a whole. He exercises
the closest personal supervision over
his team. and it is largely owing to his
efforts that the Philadelphia team put
IN such a stubborn fight with Detroit
for the championship Mack IS a re-
markably good judge Of plavirg timber
and the local players will be on tiptot
during the stay of the Athletics, hop
ing 10 make an impression on The
eastern manager.
