| The usual flock of worlds best
base ball teams are making the
rounds of the sporting pages al
this stage of the heated controver.
Isles in the two big leagues, and
here is my pick:
Bresnahan, catch.
| Chase, first base.
/ Lajoie, second base.
| Wagner, shortstop.
/ Lord, third base.
| Speaker, center field.
\ Cobb, right field.
/ Magee, left field.
Mathewson, Mullin and John
son, pitchers.
| John McGraw, manager.
| Now for the reasons:
Bresnahan / pick for the back
lstop position because of his un-
doubted general all around worth.
Bresnahan is a fighter. a good
man on the defense, and SPLEEN
did offensive player. Street of
Washington is mighty good but
Ierratic, Billy Sullivan is out of
the game, and don't see any 9TH
err backstops in the big leagues
who class with these. Bresnahan
in my mind is the greatest catcher
in the game today.
The wonderful showing Hal
Chase has made with the Yankees
this year gives him the call for
first base. Chase is not only a
wonderful fielder but he has the
knack of getting the timely hits
iand is a steady slugger. He is
away out in front of the other
first saekefs in either big league.
lHoblitzell of Cincinnati, Chance of
IChicago. Konetchy of the Cardi-
mails, Stahl of the Boston Ameri-
cans, are other classy first sack
Iers, but they don't compare with
IChase. ~
Laioie is still king of second
basemen and he is batting better
this year than ever before. The
big Frenchman makes plays, there
Is no other second sacker in1the
game can make, and does 1t eaSily.
In my mind he is the king of Ghem
AN. Evers of the Cubs, Gardner
of Boston Red Sox, Doyle OF New
York Nationals, are classy SECOND
lsackers, but Laioie has something
ION them all and he would fight
lust as hard as any member of a
team of scrappers.
AL Bridwell of the Giants is
next TO Wagner in my opinion. He
is splendid batter. always well
lup in the first fight, good and
daring base runner. and strong in
the field. He gets them on either
side and l think he is better than

lCubs. DooIan OF the Phillies. Tur-
Iner Of Cleveland or Mcbride OF
