Jimmy Shinn, third sacker for the
Sacramento, Cal, ball team, who will
be given a tTyout with the Boston
Americans next season, is one Of the
coast leaguers who is hitting over the
300 mark. Shinh has proved a sensa-
ton at bat since his transfer from
the Portland club, and incidentally his
startling stick work caused a long
controversy between Charley Graham
and McCreedie. managers of teams in
the Pacific Coast League. When the
coast league decided to d the capital
to the circuit and all teams agreed to
contribute a player to the lineup of
the new organization, McCreedie re-
leased Jimmy Shinn. Thereupon
Shinn started out like a demon and
was soon causing all hill men to fight
shy of his stick. McCreedie, realizing
that he had lost a bet did every
thing to regain the third sacker, but
there was nothing doing. The Sacra-
mento clubs claim was legitimate and
upheld by the commission.
There are not many swifter men in
the coast league than Jimmy Shinn,
and when IT comes to stealing bases
hi is a wonder.
1t wasn't so very long ago that Shinn
was standing behind a chair in n
He%aldsburg barber shop crying next
Then he INDUCED in the game very lit
tie, and only as a semi-professional. A
scout who knew his business saw the
possibilities in the speedy youngster
and gave him a chance. He lacked ex-
perience, but learned rapidly.

KELLY GREATEST
PLAYER OF ALL,
SAYS JOHN WARD
Pitchers of Today No Better
Than Old Times, He Declares.
McGraw and Jennings Teach
ing Youngsters Some of the
Tricks They Learned Years
Ago.

There are not many men better
qualified to talk of baseball than
Johnny Ward, in his day the premier
shortstop OF the country. In an inter-
view the other day Ward de-
clared that the pitchers of today are
no better than those of his day. John
Clarkson, Nichols, of Boston; Tim
Keefe, Big Jim Mccormick. Jouett
Meekin and Amos Rusie, who both
twirled for the Giants when they won
the worlds championship back in 1894,
were as marvellous pitchers as ever
lived, says Ward. He continues:
The pitchers today have several ad-
vantages over the men who twirled
In the old days. When fouls didn't
count at all it was tough on the pitch
ers, because the batsmen could stand
pound away until the man in the
box became exhausted. But today,
with the first two fouls counting as
strikes, it's the batsmen who get the
rough end of it. | remember many &C.
casions when the man at bat has
fouled five or six tlmes-in the old
days-and I've seen tired pitchers grit
their teeth and keep on putting 'em
over. Today, when a batter has two
strikes marked up against him on
fouls he becomes over-anxious to con-
meet with the ball In order to keep
from being struck out.
There's nothing in the world a ball
player disllkes as much as to be put
out without having a chance to swing
on the ball. and the pitcher takes adj
vantage of the fact by putting the ball
either around the players neck or just
outside the corner of the plate. Another
advantage the pitchers now have Is
being mounted up in h air on a
mound. They throw from an elevation
and the ball shoots downward as it APP
proaches the batter"
Ward says Buck Ewing, the famous
old catcher, was the first man to use
a big catcher's glove. way back in 1885.
Before that time catchers wore small
gloves and the fielders none at all.
''There are two things / am going to
say before you co. said Ward, first
it is very noticeable to ms when / see
a game in which either McGraw's or
Hughey Jennings's team is engaged
that both these managers are trying
to teach the youngsters some of the
tricks they learned years go. Nc
Graw and Jennings are masters of the
game. The other thing is this: Mike
Kelly was the greatest b~all-player who
ever engaged in the profession, and
Buck Ewing was the greatest catcher
/ have ever seen"

BALTIMORE, Md, Sept. 6.-Today
the Tigers bid a glad goodbye to Bal

Grays at Providence. Today's game
does not wind up the seasons series
between the Bengals and the Birds. for
the Orioles will still have to show
at Newark. The old Oriole jinx was
or the Job again yesterday, the Bird
men having one big time at McGin-
nity's expense after Corcoran had got
ten away with a drive to Fisher which
Bob tried to handle but just fell short
OF making a phenomenal catch which
would have been good for a double play
and no runs for Baltimore. Fisher
was not to blame, however, as 1t
would have been a great catch had
he made 1t. and Bob is playing great
ball.
McGinnity returned to Newark last
night on business and will join the Ben
gals at Providence tomorrow. Shontz
and Boice will not make the trip to
GRANVILLE. They will be left In New
ERIK tomorrow might. Since the riot here
in which Umpire Hart was hit on the
head by a pop bottle a standing army
of policemen are constantly on guard.
During the game the coppers. stationed
ten feet apart, sit on soap boxes in
front OF the bleachers. n 1t is laugh
able to see them ducking long drives
and fouls. After the game the UNI
pires march between the two files OF
bluecoats until they are escorted from
the park. 1t is a unique sight.
Bill Louden, 1t Is feared, has eaten
something which has poisoned his
stomach. He vas unable to leave his
bed yesterday. The players blame II
on the drinking water. Bills loss al
this time. when he was going so good
will be felt. Meyer played a great
game yesterday and had two hits, sub
bling for Bill. 1t is improbable that
Louden will be able to leave here
tonight on the Federal Express, which
will carry the team direct to Provi

Talking horses to Geers is like inter-

During the racing season Geers rides
