Nationals Haze Great Record in Work Bat During Sixteen Straight Ncton
GRIFFITH PRAISED
IN OTHER CITIES
Record Made During Western Trip Makes Nationals
Manager Prominent Throughout Country--Vet-
eran Has Stood for Many Knocks.

Clark C. Griffith Is getting his picture
In the papers every day now and is re-
ceiving praise justly due him for the
record made by the Nationals on their
Western trip. A few OF the nice things
follow:
Perhaps no veteran manager in the
game has had to stand more hard
knocks and abuse than Clark Griffith,
the pilot Of the washington Nationals.
In 1901 the Old Fox won a pennant with
the Chicago White Sox, the first year
In which the American League took the
field as a major organizat alton. When
with the Highlanders, Griff twice was
nosed out In the race. After resiening
from the management of the Highland
ers In 1903, he battled three years with
the Cincinnati Reds, trying to mold
that club into pennant contender
The Redland fans took kindly to Grif-
nth at FIRST. but his final year in Gin
cinnati was as unpleasant as the root
ers there could make 1t for him. How
ever, In the last fortnight the tickle
Goddess of Fortune has smiled on the
Old Fox, and when he returns to Wash
ington on Tuesday for a one-day stand
with the Athletics he probably will get
q reception such as never was given to
a major league manager
And Griffith deserves 1t. The wonder
ful showing that he has made with a
team that was not thought to have the
slightest look-in for the flag is one of
the most remarkable achievements in
baseball. washingtons phenomenal
squirt is the talk of the country. Not
only has Griffith shattered the 1912 rec
ord of consecutive victories, but he has

OF the pitching stan. when the team
struck st. Louis a reversal Of form
was noted. All Of the pitchers showed
exceptional form AMI have contributed
largely to the success which has marked
the winnings. Hitting however. Is the
cause Of the record-breaking string OF
victories, as the figures show.
In the sixteen games the team has
scored l07 runs, an average of 81 runs
per game These runs were made by
l16 clean drives. which netted the hitters
sixty-seven extra bases, The average
hits per game has been exactly eleven,
marvellous average considering the
team stands next to last in team batting
for the year. or these 1877 hits, twenty
eight have gone for two-bagRers, fifteen
for triples. and three for home runs
Having gone to the bat 567 times during
the sixteen games the Nationals team
average for these victories Is .3i0. These
figures show that Grin's Climbers are
entitled to every victory that has come
their way.
Aside from winning four games and
saving another, Walter johnson has
proved himself not only to be the great
est of pitchers but has set the team a
pace In hitting. The Big Swede has a
batting average OF .467. Moeller. Milan,
Morgan, and Foster follow along with
exceptional marks which have helped
the team to it's victories.

tainly looks good just now.-Philadel-

Just at present the Washington team,
with Its marvellous record OF straight
victories which has made OF It a first
division team, is the sensation in the
league Give the credit to Clark Grif-
nth, who has tnstilled the proper spirit
into his youngsters and veterans.
The more credit because the veteran
baseball general has testified to his
faith In the game by investing prac-
ucally all of his worldly goods in the
stock of the Washington club.
Griffith is a wonderful manager who
in the past has been handicapped by
facts over which he has had no control
but now he seems to be coming into
his own. No wonder the WASHINGTON
fans, accustomed to seeing their team
In the cellar position. are enthusiastic.
And there is also cause for rejoicing
that that sterling pitcher. Walter John
son, has al last chance to show what
he can do with a team behind him
which can give him real support.-Pitts-

The Nationals have gone at a record
