Schoolmaster Fisher, of the Yanks,
was very much to the good yesterday
and allowed the st. Louis Browns to
get away with two insignificant little
hits. 1t does look as though Hal Chase
has some pretty nifty youngsters on
his hurting corps. for such a feat is
no mean one in the big leagues, even
against such a team as the Mound City
aggregation.

Alexander, the great, registered his
fifteenth victory of the season yester-
day against Boston and celebrated it
with a shut-opt.
George McQuillan finally Won a game
yesterday from Pittsburg. It went ten
innings and it was the pitchers hit
which broke 1t up.
Detroit still pulls the i%ate-rally stuff
and the Garrison finishes. The White
Sox were victimized yesterday. Cobb,
whose ambition now is to make 300 hits
this year, added two more to his belt
yesterday.
Luderus, of the Phillies, is fast COM
ing to the front as one of the best
tirst-sackers in the game. His hitting
is also timely and hard. A triple and
a single helped to swell his batting
average yesterday.

Amos Strunk played d star game in
the field for the Athletics yesterday,
making FIVE difficult catches. His su-
perb fielding featured the game and
cut off enough runs to enable the Mack
men to win by a one-run margin, which
they earned in the ninth, after two
we're gone, against the Red Sox.
Ray Caldwell, one of the Yank pitch
ers, played in the outfield yesterday, as
Wolter is laid up and Fitzgerald has
a sore arm. The HEAVIER had two hits
in -four tries and stole a base against
Washington.
Larry Doyle, captain and middleman
in the Giants infeld, leads the Ma
tional League in three-sack soaks,
having registered thirteen. His near
est rival Is a youngster named Honus
Wagner, who is attracting attention In
Pfttsburg by his p~rodigious clouting.
The Wagnerian record shows eight
triples. Frank Schultz. of the Chicago
Cubs, who yesterday put his neck into
the halter at the altar, is the leading
home-run manufacturer of the Lynch
league. Schultz has hit for the circuit
seven times thus early in the season.

1t is said that Otis Crandall is am
bilious to become a catcher. His hit
ting would make him valuable as a
regular.
Neither the Senators or the Browns
won a game last week. Brooklyn and
Boston won one apiece In the National.
