PEEVED PARTISANS
ALICE PITCHERS
ARE NOT UPRIGHT
LEAGUE FINGERS DON'T CHEAT AND NOBODY HAS
1T IN FOR TYRUS RAYMOND COBB.

The game In ST. Louis hung on
play over second base. Bill Hinch-
man hit the ball and Bobby Wallace
pulled on a phenomenal stop and
threw him out. Otherwise, il would
have been impossible for the Maps TO
lose the flag. They finished half
game behind.
Had Wallace displayed just ordin-
airy skill In trying for that ball
Hinchman would have been safe and
the two runs necessary to take the
pennant away from Detroit would
have been registered then and there.
Did Wallace loaf? He did not. he
exerted himself TO the utmost and
accomplished a play nobody thought
he could make.
The spirit of play the string TO
the finish" exists and that alone
brought the pennant TO this city in
1908. The whole thing hung in the
hands OF st. Louis and the Browns
went through. Things haven't chang
ed in two years. The league is still
honest. the men in the game are up
right and there are no horse thieves
In the pitchers box.
We say again that Ty Cobb is not
unpopular with players of other clubs.
Even supposing he were so. there
certainly would be a reason for a gen
eral dislike 10 a man. and in admit
ting that they don't like him, Cobb's
supposed friends stamp him as dis
agreeable cuss. But nobody has II
In for him.
We are of the opinion that Tyrus
Cobb and Napoleon Lajoe are men
of such high honor that they would
not countenance any undue advan-
tages In this matter. OF course, they
bring up the old stunt Of handing
EN- easy to Speaker SO he could get
bonus OF $500 for batting 300
| That was an entirely different thing
That involved trimming magnate
the cardinal principle OF which is
go get EN-" With one player to
another II is different.
Whoever wins this automobile, and
we're for Cobb because Cobb is tt
ger let's say he won II honestly. It's
about time, anyhow, that Cleveland
and Detroit got out OF the safety
pin stage and realized that the towns
have grown into cities. It's very
bush league to squawk all the time.
