TIMELY TwINKLES OF THE DIAMOND STARS.

Grouches have the distinction of being
the only team in either of the biz
leagues which has not been dipped
in the whitewash bucket this season
The feature of the game was Mori-
arity's steal of home plate during the
second inning.
One of the reasons why the Athletics
are in such a wretched position in the
American League race is the pitching
of Cy Morgan, traded to Mack by the
Red Sox.
A sure way for National League bats
men to decrease their batting averages
is to hit the ball in Zach Wheat's
direction. Wheat is fielding as well as
he is hitting.
