Will the Giants or Athletics win the
worlds series? Fans who can see only
American League games pick the Ath-
letics. Those who see National League
games favor Giants. In cities where
both play fans are divided; SO are those
not in big league cities.
1t is my opinion that the Athletics will
again win the worlds base ball cham
Lionship.
The Athletics is one of the grandest
clubs in base ball history. It has in. Cor
base ball generals. From raw material
he has welded q wonderfully smooth
working machine.
The team should win because it is the
best. But the best club does not always
win short series. This was shown in
1905. when the White Sox defeated the
Cubs, surprising the base ball world
The Cubs of 1908 was as good If not
a better club than the Athletics of 1911,
1t was led by a peerless general and had
wonderful pitchers. The Sox was an or
binary club noted for gameness and abil-
ity to grasp opportunity. The pitchers
had unusual merit and Fielder Jones was
a great leader. The Cubs were favorites,
but the SoX won.
The Giants are great club. The way
they won the pennant proves this. The
Athletics by winning after a bad start
proved their worth. The best team wins
/ believe Mack's club Is the better of
the two and on form they should win.
Good pitching and 1.-The breaks in luck
are deciding features in such a series.
A victory for the Giants would cause
little surprise.
McGraw is a wonderful manager. His
successes have proven his strategic abil:
ity. In Marquard and Mathewson he has
grand pitchers. The rest OF the staff are
above the average. 1t is possible with
his stars. he may triumph as did the Sox
in 1896.
Some predict a series of four or five
games This would surprise me. look
for SIX or seven games. No matter how
many are Played / believe the Athletics
will win, with an even break.
One argument of Giant rooters is that
the team will win by base running. Put
this in your pipe: No great series has
been won by base running. McGraw won
the pennant by taking chances. It was a
wise plan in a long campaign. but In
short series 1t won't do. A game lost
can't be retrieved in a week.
And the Athletics have speedy base
runners. Their combined speed is below

that of the Giants, but they won't sleep
on the lines. The Cubs were doped to
run wild on Ira Thomas last year. The
box scores tell another story. American
Leaguers haven't run wild on the Ath-
letics, and the G ants will learn that
Mack's pitchers hold them close to the
bags and that few men can put the ball
on runner like Collins and Barry
There is another factor: Mack's men
often jump a pitcher and hammer out a
winning lead in an inning. They had a
big inning in almost every game against
the Cubs. If they start McGraw will
have to follow suit instead of trying for
a run at time via the base running
route
The Athletics mix attack. They de-
pend on the hit and run and sacrifice.
They make the former play with rum
ner on second as often as they do with
a man on first. CHEF Meyers will be
busy if he is to stop them.
Mathewson should be an obstacle to the
Athletics. With a good arm, a better
brain and stout heart, he is always
the zip of five years ago, but his fade
away and slow ball are as puZzling and
his control is possibly better.
/, 1 watched Mathewsbn IN the New York
city series last fall, in which l was one
of the umpires. His work was a revela-
ton. The Highlanders beat the others.
Mathewson being the only one to go the
route. He won the three games he start
ed and relieved Drucke with the basees
filled and none out and won. He will be
wonderful hep to M"Graw.
The Giants have had the first "break In
luck" by winning the T ght to open the
series at home Winning the first game
is half the battle and on the Polo
Grounds, with their peculiar lights and
shadows, the Giants will have an advan-
tage.
Mathewson and Bender will probably
pitch the opener. These great twir'
have often heen put to the test and sell
dom have they failed. 1t VIII be some
battle when they clash. no matter which
team wins.
