The field is rather soft which may hold
down the hitting to some extent, and

McInnis. il is not likely that the latter
will get into the series. His arm is so
weak he could not get the ball To the
pitcher from first base.
The houses which surround the park
have temporary stands built on their
roofs and these are packed with human

from this vantage.
McGraw has selected Marquard To do
the pitching, while Mack has sent Plank
in to oppose him. Meyers and Thomas do
the catching. 1t will be battle of left
