With McGraw New Workers
Are Invincible; Quakers
Have Ginger.
(By w. s. Farnsworth).

New York, N Y, June lit sure is
a merry fight for the gonfaion in the
National league this year, with the
Giants, Cubs, Phillies and Pirates in
the lead While it is a foregone con-
clusion that one of these teams will
win out, the man who can pick the
leader among the quartet deserves a
leather medal,
The Giants were picked as sure win
ners all over the country last winter,
but the Cubs new material has shown
up most promisingly and so have Fred
Clarke's men. The great squirt of the
Quakers at first looked like just q
flash in the pan, but Charley Doom
has injected a lot of pepper into their
veins and, if the pitching staff can
stand the burden Philadelphia fans
may not have to leave their own town
TO witness the worlds championship
series next fall.
Giants Need McGrnw.
AS is only natural, local fans are
predicting that the pennant will sure
ly come to this city. But l am going
to tell you something about the Giants
without McGraw at the helm they
are like that proverpial ship that is
rudderless. They play inside baseball
from start to finish, take advantage
Of every bit Of percentage and are as
spry as a futurity candidate when he
is on the bench or coaching lines to
guide them. But. when he is absent,
they are not the same team by a long
shot.
And this was clearly demonstrated
in the series Of a fortnight ago be-
tween the Giants and Cubs in Chicago.
While the New Workers broke even with
the Windy City aggregation. they
should have won all four of the games.
Chicago scribes will probably say diff
ferently, but it is the cold fact just
the same.
Throw Runs Away.
Pitchers were left in too long on
two occasions, and when they were
plainly waving the flag Of distress,
and the Giants threw away at least
six runs in the two contests by poor
base running and slow thinking. Nc
Graw is one-half the strength of the
Giants-on the defence and offence.
He has a hard-hitting outfit and an
infield and outfield that rank high on
the defence, but, with two or three
exceptions, the players are purely me-
chanical; their brains do not work
without McGraw to guide them.
There is no getting away from the
fact that McGraw is the greatest man
ager that ever handled a ball team
He knows the game from A to and
back again. He is always taking adj
vantage of an opponents weakness,
and it doesn't take him long to find
that spot, either. For years he has
been leading an inferior team-one
that belonged in the second division
right up near the top of the pennant
ladder.
Is a Baltimore Graduate.
McGraw is a graduate of the old
Baltimore team, the one that revolu-
tionized batting from hard and wild
smuggling to scientific batting And he

young Doyle, who was unearthed IN
the American association. has not only
been fielding as well as the veteran
Steinfeldt. but has proved a demon
with the wagon tongue,
Evers has been out Of the game a
lot because OF sickness, yet Chance
had a ready and able substitute in
| Zimmerman But Evers was missed
Just the same. and. with him back in
harness now. the Cubs will surely be
strengthened heap. especially on the
defence. as Evers is the keystone Of
plays in the infield.
Chance has a grand staff of substi-
tutes and a team is always as good
as its understudies. Holman, the
crack all-around performer. has lived
up 10 his reputation and has filled in
wonderfully at first while Chance
himself was forced to sit on the bench
because of an injury.
The Cubs are, without doubt. the
greatest inside baseball outfit that ever
played the game, and, when they have
outlived their usefulness, every one OF
them should prove a corking manager
from the lessons Chance has given
them.
Pittsburg Shows Up Well.
Pittsburg has shown up much
stronger than expected, and all be-
cause the recruits have lived up to
their minor league regulations. Many
locked for Wagner to slow up this
year, but the big Flying Dutchman is
just as good as ever, and so is the
veteran Leach. While they are prob
ably doing most OF the work that is
/ keeping the Pirates up in the race.
young Hunter has developed into a
corking good first baseman.
First base was the one hole that the
Pirates had not been able to fill well
since Kitty Bransfield was sold to
Philadelphia after having thoroughly
whipped Wagner in a fight in the
clubhouse. Wagner refused to play on
the same team with Brsnsfield after
the fight. and. of course, Bransfield
was let out. But that one release cost
the Pittsburg club at least one pen
nant-in 1908
Doom put one over on Clark Grit
fifth when that famous trade was made
last fall whereby Paskert and Lobert
became members of the Quakers These
Cincinnati castoffs are playing grand
ball for the Phillies. and, if Doom can
dig up couple of new twirlers. he will
surely have his squad lowering up near
the top all season.
Luderus All Right.
Chance handed the Philadelphia team
a corking good first baseman in Lu-
derus. While I was in Chicago with
the Yankees a few weeks ago. 1 asked
why the Cubs ever let this youngster
get away. I was informed that Chance
could not teach him anything; that he
is what we commonly call bonehead.
Well. Luderus has proved to be
very brainy player He has been
breaking up sacrifice plays by the OPP
position time and again, and it takes
a quick thinking first baseman to rush
in for a martyr bunt and wheel in
time to get his man at the keystone.
1t certainly looks as though the
usually wise Chance made an awful
blunder here. The Chicago leader is
fast slowing up and next season he
will probaly be forced 10 station a
younger man than himself on first
base. Luderus is likely to look like a
million dollars to Frank Chance about
a year from now.
