MONROE. La, March 6.-The pecu-
y lar link which the Athletics seemed
10 own last year when facing the New
. York and Boston clubs was the sub
5ect OF an evening conversation at
, the Tiger training camp last night
Had the Tigers been able to do nearly
- we'll against the other frst-division
clubs, the race would have been SO
close as to be in doubt to the very
last minute.
Somebody recalled the fact that al
most every pennant-winner OF history
has had one or two clubs from which
re was able to take practically the en-
tire series. This was the case with
Detroit and st. Louis, the latter club
roing to the last game OF the sea-
oon one year before winning Its hrst
Victory from the Tiger crew.
'sBaItimore once did even better
Than tha<-' said Hugh eJennings.
I'm fact, don't believe that any club
has ever equalled one record We
made. For two years We went into
Philadelphia and won our IL games
annually, without losing one. II got
70 that, whenever we doped the pro-
gress OF the pennant race. We would
consider every game with Philadei-
.Dhia victory, in advance. Nor were
the Phillies tail-enders or anything or
the sort No stree! They were the
hardest-hitting aggregation that ever
took the field in any town. They had
nix or seven men batting away over
800 all the while, and Ed Delehanty
and Lajoie used to be nearer 400
