GRIFFITHS PLAYERS ANXIOUS
TO FINISH IN SECOND PLACE
Series With Athletics Should Decide Question
Walter Johnson Is Using Mathewson's
Fadeaway Base Ball Gossip.

7 did not seem to be able to use it. He
tried it In the warm-up Sunday and to
his surprise the ball broke out like a left
handlers curve. He used it in the game
against the White SoX and believes that
he will be able to perfect it to such an
extent that it will help his effectiveness.
1t was this fadeaway ball which made
Jean Dubuc a successful pitcher Crit
fifth had Dubuc in Cincinnati a few years
ago. where he. taught him the trick Of
added to Johnson's speed and curves the
Nationals star will be more difficult to
hit than ever before.
Bob Groom is going to run a close
second to Walter Johnson in this years
pitching records. To date Groom is just
seven victories behind Johnson. john
son has won thirty games and lost
twelve, while Groom has twenty-three
to his credit and the same number of
to finish games as has Johnson. which.
to an extent, has given Johnson an ad-
vantage. For the past month or so
Groom has done splendid work No
pitcher in the league has been more ef-
fective than he He is steady as ROCK,
has great curve, good speed and uses
a spit ball in the pinches which is not
easily hit. Now that Groom is show
ing wonderful form the Nationals seem
to be assured of two great pitchers
are sure to be Of much more help in
the next campaign than they have in
this.
While it is true that Griffith is not re-
sponsible for any player on the local
team excepting Gandil, who was pur-
chased after he took charge, the fact
should not be overlooked that every man
on the team who served here under his
predecessors showed to better advantage
under Griffith than ever before. This is
particularly true of the pitchers. If there
is one department OF the game at which
Griffith excels it is pitching. He has
given all his pitchers pointers which have
stood them in good stead, but his knowl-
edge of the game does not end there.
Some of the players who were here be-
fore Griffith took hold are loud in their
praise of his management. They do not
hesitate to say that he is the most ca
pable man they ever worked under. Crit
fifth has an ideal disposition for handling
ball team. He has the good will of
his players, Is firm and yet considerate.
He Is particularly fortunate in that he
has a we'll behaved, Intelligent lot Of
players, who never hesitate to follow or
derS or instructions.

of the nine years since he came from
the Baltimore Orioles to take charge

Graw is veteran in comparison with

II is an interesting coincidence
that in 1903, the same year that
McGraw undertook the leadership of
the Giants. Jake Stahl. as a college
man starring both on the diamond
and grldiron for the University for
Illinois. was discovered by a Boston
American scout and brought east.
