Frank Baker One
 Of Connie's Finds
Third Baseman Who Won Two Games For Athletics Grabbed From Reading Club

Philadelphia, Oct. 19.-The hero of the hour here is John Franklin Baker, third baseman of the Athletic base ball team, who humiliated both the mighty Mathewson and the naughty young Marquard in succession. The eyes of the entire baseball world are turned upon this batting phenomenon.
 In the face of all laws of the jinx, Baker was born on the thirteenth of March, 1886, in Trappe, Md. As an infant a baseball was his favorite toy, and as a youth he had all the kids backed off the vacant lots of Trappe when if came to one-o'cat. When he was twenty years old he took a chance at semi professional ball and joined the club at Risiey, Md. The next two years he played with the Cam bridge, Md club. In the infield with him at that time was Charley Herzog, the New York infielder, and the late Si Nichols, formerly of the Athletics.
 Until this time no one had seen any particular bells on Baker. Then in the latter part of 1908 Manager Welt gel of the Reading club of the Tri- State League, who was looking for an infielder, saw some of Bakers perfor- mances and signed him for his team. Then they began to notice things about the modest Baker. Next year Connie Mack bought him before the
 
 special pains to show the bush third baseman a few points about hanging around the bag. There wasn't any need to show him how to hold the stick (breathing spell for New Workers to make that little expression again.) We'll, the rest is now history
 Baker is known as one of the best pinch hitters in the American League Added to his little knack of swat ting the ball he has a rare ability to drive for extra bases. He is lack ing one inch of being six feet tall; he weighs 173 pounds, and when he swings all of Baker is behind the move. "Wild Bill' Donovan, pitcher of the Detroits, says there is nothing just like Baker in the country. Here is the way ''Wi1d Bill' feels about it.
 ''Sure, it's sad enough when Baker gets up to bat, but there is no way out of it. The best thing know is to be ready to fall on your face when you have a hunch Baker is going to strike. I wouldn't stand in line of one of his drives for any job. He's the hardest hitting batter I've ever seen No there is nothing to do about it. The harder you throw them the farther the ball goes. Be ready to dodge when Baker swings, that's my advice''
 Baker said to-day: .T have no bit ter feelings against Fred Snodgrass for spiking me in the game Tuesday. I am sure it was accidental I am not seriously hurt and will play the next game

GIANTS FIGHTING WITH
 BACKS AGAINST THE WALL
Grant|and Rice Says McGraW's Men Must
 Win Today to Have Look in

quard, McGraw's main hope and only hope now is for his people to start hitting again. If they continue to flutter as they have to date, the Mac kian machine is liable to win by Fri day night and close out the series in five games.
 Wednesdays rain worked we'll for McGraw. as it gave his white hope, Mathewson, a day of rest before he will be called on to work again. It isn't likely now that Matty will work before Saturday, if there is a game Saturday. If Marquard works, today, Ames or Wiltse will be worked, Fri day. If either Ames or wiltse pitches. today. Marquard steps in, Friday. Ben- der, Plank and Coombs will work their turn for Mack unless the Quak- CT manager should decide to send Coombs back, tomorrow.
 So far it has been nearly 99 percent Franklin Baker Baker, with two wallops, has placed himself up on a plane with the greatest heroes of the game. They are ranking him with Cobb and Wagner and he doesn't come far from deserving this notch. He has been hitting, according to the figures, at nine times above his nor important and true, is nothing much for Mathewson and MRrQuard to hang their echoes upon.
 Mack's team has played the better ball to date but the queer part of it all is that weakness has been shown by the white elephants strongest point viz, the infield. Infield blunders by Collins and Barry, the two stars. have let in the Giants four runs. Me- Graw's infield has split apart badly and must get together Or the series will develop into joke. Fletcher and Herzog have both cracked more than once while Eddie Collins has three times as many errors as he made in the series, last fall. The edge fingers strong with the Athletics upon the threshold of today, and only a Giant victory will give McGraw another look in. If he can win, today, he has his chance, with Mathewson resting until Saturday.
 Philadelphia, Oct 1s-Overcast skies, which seemed to presage rain, and soggy field, almost knee deep in mud, made the prospects for today's game between. the Athletics and Giants seem very slim at an early hour. The had ceased, at g o'clock, but the chances that it will begin again are very probable.

Whjte Sox Take Series From Cubs
 In Straight Games
American Leaguers Win Fourth Game and Chances Rooters
 Are Dazed

Chicago. Oct. 19-Comiskey's White Sox continued their joy ride here yes terday and for the fourth consecutive time subdued Frank Chances Cubs, the score being 2 to 2. By winning yes- terday's contest the Sox won the championship of Chicago in such a clear-cut manner that Cub partisans happened. Chances One-time famous machine failed to win a game in the series and in the last two years have won only one game out of nine played with American League teams in post season series.
 Ed Walsh opposed MOdecai Brown, and the Spitball King won with ease. The noted Mordecai was subjected to one of the worst drubbings he has been compelled to endure in his long and honorable career, and was swept from the slab at the end of the fifth game.
 In his five round administration, the three-fingered marveps wares, were pounded to all corners of the National League ball yard. The Sox fell on him for eleven healthy drives. which blos- somed into six runs.
 Ed Walsh won his second game of the series and never was in danger. He held the National League runners up to five hits and had few occasions to exert himself His spitball com- pletely baffled the famous sluggers on the Cub team, who were amazed at their poor showing against the American Leaguers.
 Cheney finished the game for. the Cubs and twirled great ball. The att tack of the Sox came to a sudden end when he went on the slab, only one hit being made off him in the last four innings. His brilliant work was the only bright feature of the series for the Cub followers.
 Another huge crowd turned out to view the fray. The interest in this series was remarkable, the crowds by far exceeding the throngs that flock ed to see the Cubs and White Sox battle for the Worlds Series title in 1906. Every seat in the grand stand, bleachers and boxes was filled fully an hour before the start of hostilities There also was large overflow crowd in the outf1eld, making ground rules necessary. The official attendance was 22,9S6, while the gross receipts were $17,0O6.50. The National Commits sion's share was $1,700.O5, the players receiving $9,1S3.51, while the clubs share was s3,061.17. The total atten- dance at the four games was 99,359 and the total receipts were $70219. 50
 The outcome of this series was one of the greatest surprises in the his tory of organized baseball Before the first game the Cubs were big favorites in the betting, and though partisans of the White Sox were en- thusiastic over their teams chances they wanted big odds on their team The score:

TOPSY HARTSEL CURED OF
 BOOSTING HIS HOME TOWN
Athletics Outfielder Told Friends
 Wellington Was Great Place
 Until They Learned the Truth

Topsy Hartsel, long the brilliant left fielder of the Athletics, who might play in the worlds series, lives in Wellington, O., a very cute little town out a few miles from Cleveland on the Big Four When the Athletics were first organized, Hartsel did a deal of talking about his native city, talked about it so much that the oth- CT fellows on the team grew into the habit of associating Wellington with Cleveland, Philadelphia and other grown up places.
 One time the Athletics were making the jump from Cleveland to St. Louis on train leaving Cleveland at D. m. Schreckengost knew all about Well lington, and when the train was al- most there he yelled:
 ''Hi fellows, the next station is the city of Wellington, where Topsy lives. Train stops there an hour. Come on, let's stretch our legs"
 All the boys except Hartsel filed out on the platform. Just then the en- gineer put on more steam and when the train went past the Wellington station it was going 10 miles an hour..

Mack Denounces Spiking Of Baker
 As Dirty Playing
Athletics Manager Declares Conduct of Snodgrass in In- turing Third Baseman Was C0ntemptible

Philadelphia, Oct. 19-'Tt was dir ty, contemptible trick
 Connie Mack, manager of the Attn letics, thus denounced yesterday fhe conduct of Snodgrass, centerielder of the Giants. in spiking Frank Baker the home-run walloper of the Athlet- ics, in New York Tuesday afternoon. Mack further declared that Baker knew how to cover third base as well as any other man in the business He added:
 "Mathewson and Dooin and the oth- CTS can say what they please, but to my mind dt was deliberate attempt to maim Baker.
 'They say that Frank doesn't know how to tag man at third. That is not true. Baker knows how to do it as we'll as any other third sacker in the business.
 ''There have been only two who spik- ed Baker. One was Cobb, and we will Snodgrass. Besides that, Snodgrass has dones it twice in three days. Tues day there was absolutely no reason why Frank should have been spiked. Snodgrass. went out of his path to sink his spikes into Baker. It was a dirty, contemptible trick.''
 Baker himself refused to charge Snodgrass with deliberate attempt to maim him. Stretched on board in the Athletics dressing room the big third sac1xer twitched painfully as the trainer treated his spike cuts. The injuries are no mere scratches.
 When Snodgrass spiked him Satur- day, cuts were received on the left arm and the left knee. the one on the arm being about four inches long and over a half inch deep. The skin on either side of the cut is laid back, almost exposing the bone.
 The injuries received Tuesday are just as deep and painful. One of the New workers spikes slipped up Bak- CTS right arm on the inside, from the wrist to the crotch of the elbow, leaving numerous small cuts, one deep one and a mass of red abra sions. The other cut is on the right leg and is almost as bad. s
 ''I have nothing to say about it" Frank declared, but a little later in answer to comment of Barry 8 upon the depth of the cuts, added:
 ..He jumped clear across the bag to get me- I was in my right position. .'
 The manager of the Mackmen was much incensed at Snodgrass's action.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-10-19
(By Grantland Rice)

Philadelphia, Oct. 19-It's an i'll rain that doesn't work both ways. With Mack's rushing lineup tugging at the leash, Wednesdays downpour gave McGraw's club a chance to recover its poise before coming face to face with John Franklin Baker, the Trappe, Md, tarantula, again.
 Before the players departed for the Park, today, the Giant leader gave his pitchers final instructions as to what they should propel to Baker when he came up. Turn and throw to second base" was McGraw's tip, 'or run back Of the stands and hide the ball.
 It is also said that Red Murray has put in an application to the National Commission for an airship to use in rightfield. The comimssion is consid- ering MT. Murray's application and will let him know about it before Bak- CT comes up. Mathewson blamed Mar quard for pitching J. Franklin high, fast one and then J. Franklin, with Mathewson pitching, hit low curve ball to the same spot. What are you going to do about a guy who hits either latitude or longitude into the street?
 Any comparison anent the two ball clubs at the end of three games cen- ters around Frank Baker In the American League, Bakers home run average was four base jolt at each IA trips to the plate. Under far bet ter pitching his average has come down to four sacker every six trips to the plate.
 Today's battle, if fought, finds the Giants fighting with their backs to the wall A defeat for McGraw, today, means sure conquest for the Athletics. But New York victory means a re- vival of Giant hopes and leaves the ultimate outcome more in doubt than ever The main query now is which of the two teams will first recover it's combined batting eye. The Giants are hitting about .145 and Mack men we'll under 200. Neither club has been stinging the missile up to form One or the other is almost sure to break through and begin some of the padding from the official pill. The Giants have been in slump of deadly proportions. They were weak against Bender, weak against Plank and weakest against Coombs. Outside of Baker and Col lins. the Athletics have been equally flabby against Mathewson and Mar
