BY TOMMY CLARK.

KF his pitchers hold out Connie
Mack's Philadelphia Athletics
is the team to beat in the Aneri-
can league pennant fight this
season. Although 1t is a little early
in the campaign to predict this. at the
same time it doesn't do any harm to
look the matter over thoroughly.
Last year the Athletics chased out
the Detroit Tigers to the last ditch,
and this year Mack starts in with the
same team Of youngsters benefited by
the experience of a hard campaign.
Hughey Jennings also has practically
the same team as last year, but his
men are not youngsters. Quite num-
Der of his players are going back as
fast as Mack's youngsters are coming
Mack also has a few goers, but not as
many as Jennings. and he has a good
youngster to I'LL every gap that can
occur.
These facts should make the Ath-
letics figure to beat out Detroit this
season, and so far no other team has
shown form good enough to warrant
the prediction that it can outstrip the
two leaders. If rumors are true there
are special reasons why Mack would
like to win another pennant with the
Athletics this season. OF course he
will tell you that he always wants to
win, but he will hardly deny that he
is more than anxious to land the flag
this year. He has the men. and he
has the organization, and If his pitch
ers last he will come pretty near turn
ing the trick.
Connie Mack is proud OF his team
and is well satisfied with the showing
that they have made, and he has rea-
son to be.
Mack is very serious about the good
work of his players and, with the keen
analysis of which he is capable points
to the strong points of his organiza-
ton. He is especially gratified with
the good showing of his pitchers and
thinks that as the test comes day after
day they will prove their great useful
ness.
Unless all dope is wrong, Detroit
will give the Athletics the hardest
struggle during 1910. Just as long as
Jennings is at the helm there is bound
to be some fight brigade in the Mich
igan city. And, though the Tigers
struck reverses, they have not been
serious enough to make Manager
Mack feel safe from the Tigers claws
Cleveland is another club that is GER
tainly going to make trouble. The
Maps play inside baseball, and it is al
ways a battle Of wits as we'll as hands
and feet with McGuire's bunch. But
there must always be some batting too.
New York is the other club which at
this early date appears able to keep
within hailing distance of the leaders
But the Highlanders will have Boston
and possibly Chicago to watch, for
these two fast teams want to get into
the first division badly. However
looking over the situation from every
angle, this should be great year for
Mack.

Georgia are invariably charmed with
his ways of speech. Once and for all,
get the idea that Cobb is a rough, a
swell head and a skate out of your
mind. He isn't that sort of boy, and
he is well worth any mans respect and
friendly hand.
Writing of Tyrus Cobb, a Georgian
who knows him says that Cobb, the
most popular young fellow in Augusta,
is not merely hit or miss batter,
whose success has terrorized the pitch
ers, but student of the game. "Cobb's
ideas as applied to the Improvement of
his own skill are interesting" says his
friend. He figures that study of the
pitchers will do better than all the
practice hitting in the world, and the
Improvement of his percentage seems
to bear him out. Each man who goes
against Cobb is made the object Of
special attention. If Tyrus can hit him
right at the start and keep hitting him
he does not worry. If the pitcher
proves too much for him Cobb will do
some thinking, watching and planning
and so far has seldom lost.
For two years Doc White of Comis-
keys team had Cobb for the goat.
Twice, 1t Is on record, he made Cobb
fan three times during a single game.
1t looked as If White had Tyrus for

HOME RUN ON A BUNT.
Peculiar Play Is Pulled of In South
ern League Game.

ern League Game.
The Southern league furnishes a
story of a home run bunt that won a
game.
It seems that there was man on
first and that the batter was instruct
ed to lay down bunt. He put roller
toward third, the first baseman was
drawn in, and the second baseman
covered first.
The third baseman threw to first.
Everybody saw the ball on the way.
It hit the baseman's glove and-disap-
peared. When the hunt for the ball
began the first runner was hugging
second, while the batter overrun first
and stumbled and fell out in right
field.
He quickly got up, retouched first,
ran to second and persuaded the other
man to run ahead of him home with
the winning runs.
Everybody thought the ball was lost
in the grass, and finally it was found
in right field. How it got there was
a mystery until the man who hit the
bunt explained.
1t appears that the ball bounced
from the second baseman's glove and
bounded up under the runners arm as
he sprinted past the bag. The runner
closed his arm down tight, kept on
running, gave stage fall out in right
field and dropped the ball.

mark forever and 1t became a stand
ard joke Of baseball that there was
never yet a buffalo like that which
White held on Cobb.
Cobb kept up the war against his
master. He tried changing his stand
at bat and the way he held his stick,
but never did he get the ghost of a hit
off White till he stepped quickly back
of the plate and met the ball after the
break That settled it. After that the
buffalo was gone-Cobb had White,
and White had Cobb no more.
Naturally every one wants to know
each year why Cobb proves more or
less of a failure in the annual worlds
series. The reason is this: A typically
southern player like Cobb cannot play
good ball in cold weather. You will
remember that the spring Of 1909 was
very cold and that Cobb was hitting
away Under grade until the warmth ar
rived The worlds series is always
played in bitter cold, and under such
circumstances Tyrus Is fizzle.
THE real point about Cobb is this
that instead of being simply a wild
hit or miss batsman he is a thinker
and a student of the game. Moreover,
in his home city he is even more popu-
lar as a citizen than as a ball player,
and nobody could have more friends"

~Y COBB, the Detroit Ameri

baseball wonder Of the day.
We all know that the Geor-
gian has no rivals when it comes to
the long hits the daring work on the
sacks, the stolen bases and the terror
he brings to pitchers and fielders.
Still little is really known of Cobb in
comparison with many other players
of less renown. Despite his name and
fame, the Georgian keeps to himself
more than is usual with players of the
day, and few people really understand
either Cobb or his playing style.
1t is generally believed-mainly from
the dash and apparent swagger of his
play-that Cobb is a swell headed and
intolerable sort of pest, inflated. blovi-
ating, boastful. He isn't. He was a
fresh sort of boy when he began the
game, but his freshness was not boast
full or mere swell Medicines. The kid
knew he had the goods; he also had
warm temper, and he wouldn't stand
for the bossing that young players gen.
orally receive. Cobb the man is a

knowing, worth admiring, and people

with any of his teammates there is a
crowd that gathers about him and
makes his life unbearable for him.
The crowd isn't satisfied merely to

big Dutchman.
That's one thing the big chap will
not stand for He hates to have peo-
pie who do not know him attempt to
open a conversation with him
And so all is not joy in the life of
the famous Hans.
He would give anything In the world
to be able to sit down and talk to his

crowd butting in.
That's why he has to sneak off to

Pretty Soft Picking For Ball
Players.

The salary list of the average
major league clubs these days is
anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000.
This shows what wonderful
increase has taken place in the
players pay within the last for
ty years. The old Cincinnati Red
Stockings, who went through the
season of 1859 without losing a
game. are reported to have had
a salary list of but $9,10o for the
season, and the players those
days did not have protection
that now exists, and consequent
ly their work was harder.
Catchers then wore neither
masks nor gloves-in fact, gloves
were unheard of-and, consider
ing the great scores that were
run up, every man on the team
must have been thoroughly ex-
hausted when a game was over.

A Peculiar Play In New York.
PhiIIy Game.

FhftT 4ame.
A very peculiar play, perhaps
the first Of its kind ever seen in
the big leagues and certainly the
first in which a New York team
figured, happened in the third
inning Of recent game between
the Giants and Phillies at the
Polo grounds in New York.
This was the inning in which
the Phillies scored six runs of
Raymond. Magee. Bransf1eld
and Knabe were on the bases,
with one out Doolin, the Quak-
er shortstop, hit a little fly,
which Larry Doyle flelded just
at the edge of the grass behind
his position OF course 1t was
an infield fly, and Doolin was
called out. All the Philadelphia
runners held their bases until
they saw Doyle muf the ball.
The ball rolled away from the
second baseman, so that Magee
was able to score and Brans-
field to take third. Doyle re-
covered the ball in plenty OF
time to head off Knabe at sec
ond, but Fletcher evidently
figured it was a force play and
failed to tag Knabe as he slid
to the bag. Doyle. of course,
had to be credited with a put
out. but he also got an error on
the same play for allowing the
base runner to advance. Dooiin
was not credited with a time at
bat. His fly scored runner
and must be credited q sacrifice.
