JUNE IS TIGERS
RA|N|EST MONTH
FOR THIS SEASON
There Have Been Six Postpone
ments in Newark and One on
the Road During This Month
of Roses--Grays Have Played
More Games Than Rivals.

June, 1911, will go down in the ar
chives of the local club as one of the
rainiest months the club has ever been
compelled to put up with. The Tigers
suffered no less than six postponements
In Newark alone, and one on the road
during the present month, which winds
up Friday.
Providence has had less postpone
ments than any other club In the
league, having played sixty-two games.
while Newark is tied with Montreal
and Buffalo, each of these three teams
having played only fifty-f1ve games.
Toronto has participated in sixty-one
games, while Rochester and Baltimore
ave played in sixty games. The
Shelters have played fifty-six games.
The schedule calls for 154 games, and
the halfway mark will be reached early
in July. when the seventy-seven game
mark is reached.
With the Bisons as their guests, the
Wiedenmayer's Park.
Buffalo's average is only .4s1: still
the Bisons are in the first division.
The Hustlers are first today, with a
mark of .66T, while the Tigers are last.
with an average of .s45. There is a
difference of 1872 games between The
Rochester and Newark teams, when
last year were fighting for the pennant
at this stage of the race
Some of the fans yesterday were of
the opinion that Joe McGinnity was TOO
hasty in calling off the two games. At
noon, when the rainfall ceased and the
situation cleared somewhat, some CT
the real bugs figured that one game
could have been played, but the dia-
mond was in no condition, and was
under two inches of water in many
places. The field has been relieved OF
the water since.
Whitley Alperman is playing a
great game for the Hustlers in his own
quiet way, and much of the success
attained during the last two years by
the Ganzelites is due to his headwork.
CANCEL says he is the most valuable
man on his payroll. He is as steady in
the field as clockwork, seldom makes
an error and there is nothing fiashy
about his work. His hitting is IN
sistent and many of his wallops are
long distance clouts.
Harry Bailey, the Newark right
fielder, puts a lot of force behind his
swing when he meets a ball squarely.
With Lancaster, In the Tri-State
League, last year, he was credited with
making the longest hit made by any
player in the league. Twice he lifted
the ball over the right field fence in
Reading, a long drive, seldom accom-
plished.
Bailey's home is in Shawnee, 0. The
Tigers have several players now who
hail from that State. and a glance at
the home towns of la big leaguerS
will show the o. standing for Ohio. fol-
lowing the town. Ohio might be called
the cradle State for ballplayers, just
as Virginia was called the mother of
our Presidents" Those on the Newark
payroll coming from Ohio are as fol-
lows: Joe Agler, Beach City; Charley
Smith, Cleveland; Willis Shontz,
Columbus; Harry Bailey. Shawnee.

The rapid and startling advance in the

and jobbers are seriously hurt and the

The matter has not taken form as yet
