EVERY TEAM IN BIG
LEAGUE CARRIES AN
EXPLODED PHENOA
Clubs All Had Stars At the
Start, But They Soon
Petered Out.

CLEVELAND. Aug. 19.-Every team
in the American League has at least
one player of whom great things were
expected. or who started well/ but
petered out This is a great season for
exploded phenoms.
Wise old Connie Mack stands out as
the manager who was fooled worst.
Connie was stung on Lefty Russell,
for whom he gave Baltimore $12, 500
Russell was a sensation in the Eastern
League last season, but the step from
a fast minor league to fast company
was too much for Lefty. Connie ad-
mitted he was stung when he asked for
waivers on Russell, and Lefty would
be in some minor league now had not
one of the clubs refused to pass up
claim on him. Russell has been IN
seven games. He remained to finish
only three of the seven, and all three
were defeats.

by the wayside.
Gene Elliott and Otis johnson, Yam

Chris Nunamaker, young Red Sox
catcher, looked Ike a sure star the flrst
three weeks of the season, but catches
now only when Bill Carrigan isn't fit.
Joe Jackson started Nunamaker down
hill when the Red Sox were at League
Park the first time this season. Joe

Small Boy Responsible
For CornelPS Victory

The proverbial small boy trying to
make himself useful was largely re-
sponsible for Cornelrs victory yesterday
over Postoffice, in section A of the post
season series. by to 6. Up until tho
last inning the Mailmen led the Paper
hangers by three runs, but while the
latter were at the bat Ferguson threw a
wild ball to Kraft, which passed through
the wire netting of the backstop. The
small boy attempted to throw the ball
back into the diamond and lodged 1t on
the wire top of the backstop. While
Kraft was dislodging the ball three of
the Cornell men ran across the plate,
which gave the capital City Leaguers
an advantage of one run.
Opposed to Ferguson on the mound
was Gallagher, who held Postoffice
down to few hits for the first half Of
the game. In the last three innings
Bernie rather let down. and when the
game was over he had been touched up
for eleven safeties.
The Washington times., 1911-08-19
SECTION A

Mr.. Belts showed some professional
umpiril in the second yesterday when
he judged that infield fly handled by
an outfielder. That decision was a hard
dose for the Mailmen to swallow.
Mcdonald ended up the second batting
session for the Postoffice aggregation
by handling a right-feld fly In a man.
ner that brought both the Postoffice
and Cornell fans to their feet for about
FIVE minutes.
Everyone wanted to know yesterday
what has become of Ferguson's
speed?" Although Fergy didn't allow
as many hits as his opponent on the
mound, he certainly did not show his
usual style.
The huge Gertman also received the
hearty applause of both grandstands
when he stabbed Hessler's line drive.
Gertman also had a good day at the
bat, connecting for a single each time
he went to the plate,

Double-Header Is Scheduled
at First and M Streets
Northeast.
CORNELL SHERWOOD,
POSTOFFICE-ALOYSIUS
Manhattan to Play Petworth and
American Security the An
drews Team.

If you are not getting out to the post
season games right along, you are miss
ing some excellent baseball.
You can take your pick of five games
carded for today, two of which come as
q double-header, at First and NJ streets
northeast, in Section A.
The opener at this park will be be-
tween Cornell and Sherwood, and the
Sunday School boys are coming back
strong after their recent defeat.
"Pinky'' Porter wants another chance
at Cornelrs sluggers, and he will most
likely get it, with Rhoades held in re-
serve.
Cornell will use either Richmond or
Edmonston, although you never can
guess his pitchers, for he doesn't know
himself until ten minutes before the
game.
In the second contest at First and NJ
streets northeast, Postoffice will en-
deavor to break into the win column by
defeating Aloysius, the latter being tied
with Cornell for first place in Section
A. Ryan and Kraft will be the battery
for PostOffiCe, and if Ryan has control,
there will be a good contest.
Control Not Perfect.
The stocky twirler hasn't worked
much this year and finds it hard to To-
cate the plate, but when he does get
them over. his delivery is hard to hit.
Talbot Lynch will probably be on the
mound for Aloysius, with Bob Hummer
as second choice. Lynch had his splitter
working fine a few days ago, and since
he has pitched against PQstoffice in the
Departmental League. and knows their
weaknesses, he is expected to give a
good account of himself.
With Burley in the box, and fresh
from a victory over American Security,
Manhattan will go up against Petworth
at First and w northwest Oakley will
be behind the bat for the Independence
Leaguers. The Manhattans are in
their lair, and are supremely confident
they can maintain the lead in Section
AA. PetwOrth will probably use Birch
in the box. although If lie Due warns
up we'll Manager Jones will shove him
in.
Security VS.. Andrews. :
American Security will endeavor to
come back at Andrews expense, the
game to be played at Thirteenth and D
streets northeast. Boeteler, the giant
twirler of American Security, will work
with eWst in the points while Andrews
will use Flynn and Rogers. Andrews
has had hard Shedding to date, but the
Whites are out for blood today.
In Section B, Car Department and
Medicos will meet for the second time,
this game at the home of the Railroad
Leaguers, Fifth and Florida = avenue
northeast Their last meeting resulted
in a victory for the Doctors, but, with
Hughes in the box and on their native
heather, the Carmen are confident of
coping the bacon. Rice, the willing
worker. will probably perform for the
Doctors, although Devote may take up
the burden.

Ebert's Blow Up Costs
Southland Team Game

Ebert blew up after four rounds of
good pitching against Naval Medicos
yesterday, and the Doctors scored eight
times in the fifth. defeating Southland,
II to l.
Southland, by virtue Of two hits and
three passed balls, scored two runs in
the second, which advantage they held
until the fifth, when five singles, three
doubles, plethora of stolen bases, ard
two errors netted the Marquette League
champs eight counts.
Ebert was benched during that fusi-
lade. and Litchfield and Wheatley took
up the burden. but neither was success
full, as two more runs were scored.

CleVeland'S Newest
A WhirlWind Fielder

Ten Million, certerfelder of the Vic

Mcguire for Cleveland, is one of the
best fielders and fastest runners ever
produced. He is a fair hitter, wonderful
thrower. especially to the home plate.
He was born in Mount Vernon, Wash.
His family moved to Seattle, where he
came into prominence with the Seattle

SECTION AA.

For five innings, although the Bankers
scored twice, they failed to get a hit.
Hayes hit to left for one base In the
sixth, while Riddle hit to right for one
base in the eighth.
Burke ruined a perfectly pitched game
by hitting two and passing two. He gave
an excellent exhibition, and deserves
credit for the victory.
With two down in the eighth, and
Fienli on second, Riddle placed safety
in right Despite the fact thet the
Bankers were four runs behind, and
that the heavy artillery was coming up,
the coacher sent Fienli to sure death
at home.
When Reggie Rawlings whaled that
long one in the sixth, everyone expect
ed a homer, but Rapp, by a sensational
sprint, got under the ball just in time.
Another thriller was Shags Rawlings
good catch Of Walters liner in the
eighth. He picked the ball out of the
dense crowd In right field, snd killed
what looked to be q homer.
The Washington times., 1911-08-19
TOMORROW.
No game.
Burke's Pitching Won
Victory for Manhattan

To Jimmy Burke, the elongated twirler
of Manhattan, should go the credit for
yesterdays victory over the Bankers
Burke held American Security safe at
all times, allowing only two hits. while
Manhattan took every advantage Of
the Bankers misplays.
The Bankers were of their stride, and
were outplayed, outpitched, outgener-
aled, and outhit by their younger oppo-
nents. 1t was a severe Jolt for the
Bankers prestige, but they certainly
did not deserve yesterdays contest
Oakley's throwing was of the best, while
sensational catches by Rapp and Raw
lings featured the fielding side.
