NEW YORK. April Sit was an
nounced yesterday that Manager John
M.Oraw, of the New York National
League Club, had traded Charlie Her.
cog, the crack utility man of the
Chants, and Outfielder Collins to the
Boston Nationals for Outfie1der Beals
Becker. The news did not come as
a surprise, as for sometime it had
be sn known that Mcaraw contem-
plated using erzog in deal, Some
timo ago it. was reported that Mo-
G'aw had proposition on with the
S. Louis Club which concerned Her
cog. but 1t did not go through. The
absence of Herzog from the New York
Colts line-up recently excited some
talk, which finally prompted McGraw
to break the news of the trade,
Herzog's weak hitting last season,
II is believed, led McGraw to let him
gu. In IS games, as utility man for
tho Gia nts. the fast little man hit the
Sbatl at only .1s5, During tina pre-
yieus season, however. he banged the
ball al a 800 clip in nearly 60 games,
his hating causing q et oi talk IN

the practice games down South this
season Herzeg apparently regafned
HIS batting eye, as he clouted out
long hits almost every day, and many
think that Boston has profited In the
dea. Becker did not set anything
ailre with the Boston Club last season.
he was away down in fielding, while In
154 games his average was .246. In
the California League In 1908, how
ever, Becker was one of the leading
piayers, and McGraw took fancy to
him last season.

the game In the first inning, when
Archer, who started out twirling Tor

fourth. only one of them being earned
Brooklyn only got five men on base
after the fourth inning. and none o.
these got past second. only two OF
them going that far. Peterson retired
In the seventh and Waymack took W
the work for the Colts Although ne
worked only two innings. the local boy
was going good and showed notice
able Improvement Of form. He allow
ed only one hit. a single. and gave ons
free pass.
Richmond compared very favorably
with the Brooklyn team and woule
probably have won the game nae

Mcmillan, the Brooklyn shortstnp,

bat, however. He was at bat four
times. and the best he got was a
sacrifice hit.

player has just begun practice and
has a very sore wing. His heaves to

the first, when they got their first
four runs, and two were made in the
