Uphill light of 1908
In That Series Pirates Looked
More Sure of Winning Than

by ALEX. SULLIVAN.

YV4HILE there IL still a game for the
w Athletics to capture in order to-
" win the worlds baseball cham

II only takes n more game for the
National League pennant winners TO
tie up the series. and n they are able
to do this they feel confident that In

before the huge army Of Gotham sup
porters they will carry OF the big end
OF the purse.
Tho Giants have yet to win . game
In Philadelphia, but they nov believe
that they W struck their stride and
that to-day they will simply deluge any
pitcher or pitchers the Athletics may
send to the rubber.
And all the while the New FORKS
have been lighting against the great
obstacles tho Athletics have hurled In
their paths. they have had IN mind the
wonderful achievement OF the Boston
Americans In the first post-seAson
worlds series between the National and
American Leagues.
In those games tho Hub team, al
though apparently much further out
classcd han n New Yorks have been
so far In this seasons contests. came
from behind with tho tally OF three
games to ono against ,nem and won
fonr games In a row. giving them the
championship.
COLLINS MANAGED BOSTON IN
1908 SERIES.
In this series. which took place In 1901,
the Bostons. who were under the man
agement OF Jimmy Collins. since de-
parted from major league circles,
seemed to be beaten to "A %standstill by
the crack aggregation OF Pirate play
ers. Wagner. Leach, Clarke. ph,llippi
and L.sever and the rest OF them were
then at their best. The club was con-
sidered tho best base running and hit
ting machine ever brought together up
to that time and the bets made on the
Bostons after the first four games were
few and far between
Upon the conclusion OF the fourth
game the Bostons struck their stride
and recovered from the stage fright
that had attacked them early In the
series. and the manner In which they
routed the Smokctowncrs was n caution.
The two -wirlers who practically rave
the worlds title to the Bostons were
Cy Young. the veteran Of t~wenty-onr
years IN major league and now with the
Hub Nationals. and Bill Dineen. who Il
officiating as an umpire for the Ameri.
can League In the present series. When
they got going they moved down the
Pittsburgh batters as though they were
amateurs and, aided by improved bat
ting and fielding support. piloted their
team TO a comparatively easy victory
considering the way the nrs, half OF the
series went.
The first game between the Bostons
md ~Pittsburghs was played Oct. l Al
Boston. and the latter won by a scora

in the Hub and the home team evened
