DO PITCHERS WORK ENOUGH?
Some Baseball Men Think That Twlrl.
ers Have II Altogether Too Easy.
Shifted Quickly II Hit.

Now and then a little curiosity is ex.
pressed as to whether the modern
pitchers obtain work enough to keep
them In good condition. This doesn't
refer to their physical condition. but
to their pitching condition.
The custom has grown upon mana
gers TO shift pitchers in a hurry If
they happen to be batted hard when
the game is close. For that reason
almost all ball teams are carrying
more pitchers in comparison with the
actual work that they do on a ball
field then they ever did.
II occasionally one of the pitchers
who happens to be hit hard were to
be kept in the game instead Of being
sent to the bench It might be that
the team would rally as quickly be-
hind him as II would behind fresh

demonstrated In baseball that pitch.

PHILLIES ARE GOING STRONG
Team Is Composed o. Hard Htters
and Has Two Star Pitchers In
Moore and Alexander.

The Chicago Cubs think that the
Phils will be in the pennant fight to
the finish and say that the record OF
the Phillies at home will assure them
of a good standing.
This home record dope is based on
the short left field bleachers, which
means homer to the player dropping
the ball among the spectators.
One of the Oldest and most valued
members of Chances team says of the
Phillies:
1T is club that has a bunch Of
cleanup hitters. and any man on the
team Is liable to break up game with
long drive at any stage. This short
bleacher is going to be big help to
Dooin's crew for couple of reasons.
I'm the first place, If a pitcher
pitches them inside to a Highlander,
any one of the Philip club is likely to
lace II into the bleacher.
The second side to the argument is
that several of the Phils who have
been hitting into the bleachers are
natural right field hitters, and a pitcher
is throwing away his own game by
pitching to stop left field hitting
Il tell you, boys, the Phillies have

fight from start to finish. From what
