SAM CRANE SAYS
GIANTS EXCEL
RED SOX I
By Sam Crane.
XX1HY all this clamor for me
wv Red Sox?

w Red sox?
Don't be Influenced by il.
Even Christy Mathewson Is so
charry of his prediction on tho
coming series that he says the team
that gets the breaks" will win. He
also claims that the question of vic
tory will hinge on managership, as
between McGraw and Stahl and
that the Giants manager will have
the advantage on account Of being
bench manager instead of a player
manager as is stahl.
l agree with Christy in that, but
Matty in his probable desire not to
critiCise any player, either a fellow
or opponent, has steered away from
the right dope.
MeGraw Knows Ganne Best.
l will add to Matty's idea by say
ing that McGraw knows more base
ball than Jake Stahl, and on that
account alone, the Giants have
better chance to win out than have
the Red Sox.
This, of course, 10 without taking
into consideration the other points
in which I think the Giants excel
the Red Sox. But that handicap of
McGraw having a better lead for
the game than my old friend Jake
is going to carry a whole lot of
weight, and enough possibly to
carry the Red Sox down in defeat.
1t surely will, too, If both teams
show themselves evenly matched
otherwise.
In offensive work think the
Giants are superior to their Boston
friends the enemy. The New York
ers are all of the McGraw brand,
with the exception Of Matthewson.
Big Six" is the only player Nc
GraW has on his team who was
Giant when McGraw took charge,
But. as good as Matty was then,
he has been more or less developed
by McGraw. That is to say, Matty
would not have been the pitcher he
is and was unless he had the ben
eft of McGraws tutelage. That.
possibly, is broad statement 10
make but it goes, and Matty him
self has acknowledged IT.
Now, with an entire team Of his
own making, imbued with the fight
tn ivit pf tna
that McGraw insists on. the natural
conclusion to arrive at Is that the
Red Sox. under Stahl who virtu-
ally had ready made team al
his disposal when he took charge
can not possibly be the bseball ma
chine that the Giants now are
Giant Machine Best.
AS | understand it, Wood ann
Speaker are considered the RED
Sox's whole team, or pretty near.

SAYS BACKSTOP
CARR|GAN
BY Bill Carrigan.
Star catcher Of the Red Sox, who will
report tho Worlds Series for
The Georgian.

The Georgian.
" OSTON, oct Some com
II ment has been made in news
papers about the game the
Red Sox have been playing in the
past three weeks and followers of
baseball may gather from 1t that
the pennant winners are not the
fast team they appeared to he, be
cause of the slower quality of
baseball they have been putting up
since they cinched the flag.
This is wrong Just before we
made victory certain we slowed up
purposely. because Jake Stahl,
who has been so successful a lead
er from start to finish. wanted his
men to get out Of the stress OF
fast campaign, rest up, avoid in
juries and point themselves 10 one
thing-the beating of the Giants.
The game we have played since
then can not be taken as any in
dication whatever Of what the Red
Sox can 40 and will do when they
are called upon
or course, We had to play out
our schedule and keep fairly ac-
tive, but the team has not tight
ened up once since the pennant was
sure and it will not do so until
we get into next weeks games

IT'S 4 C|NCH FOR
RED SOX, SAYS
HARRY LORD
By "Bud'' Fisher
By Harry Lord.
Captain of the White Sox.


~HICAGO, Oct There are
so many reasons why the Red
Sox should win the worlds
championship that if man got
few dollars per reason he could quit
rich
I'm not going to enumerate all of
them. Just few will suffice here.
To begin with, the Red Sox have
one of the greatest aggregations on
the offense that was ever collected.
You can talk about the greatness
of iris Speaker with the war club
until YOU tire and then never men
ton half.
II would be good ball club II
Speaker was the only fellow who
could hit. But he isn't. There are
about nine men in tho lineup who
can slug.
can't see any reason for com
pairing the offensive strength of the
Two teams. for the Jason that the
Bostons so far outshadow their RI
walls.
Stahl has a better defensive
strength, too. You may talk about
the base running ability of the
Giants. but it isn't going to show
to any great extent The Giants
may be in the habit of taking ex-
Il IN a.
tionaI league but they do not when
they go against the American
league champions.
That Boston outfieId is one OF the
wonders of the baseball world, and
if the Giants have any intention OF
taking two bases on long singles
and three bases upon ordinary two
baseers they might as we'll prepare
for a bitter disappointment.
Eoual Only in Stealing Of Bases.
Tou go up and down the line, and
there Is only one, department OF
the game where can figure the
Giants the equal of the Red Sox.
That is in base stealing. It's well
known fact in baseball that you
have to get on first before you can
steal second. That's one reason why
the Giants will not run wild on the
sacks-not enough Of them will
reach first
Then the Boston fellows have a
much better catching staff than one
figures. Carrigan can throw all
right. and Cady is conner. The
Red Sox have a man in Wagner,
however. who is such an artist in
tagging the ambitious base runners
that all the Sox catchers have to
do is to throw fairly well.
Wagner is one Of the greatest in
the business when it comes to get
ting a thrown ball and putting it
on the runner. A throw doesn't
have TO be perfect when he is TAX
ing il.
All that it has to be is in the
general direction Of second base
He'll do the rest. SO where many
clubs REQUIRE star throwers. all the
Red Sox need is fair pegger.
But Duffy Lewis is the fellow |
pick to shine. think he possesses
the temperament of man who is
bound to show TO advantage in such
a game. Lewis is a man totally
without nerves.
The average player may fret for
days before the big series opens.
and then worry until it is over.
Not Lewis He isn't built that way.
He comes as near being normal
when the stake is a great one and
when player is supposed to be
under terrific strain as any man
know Of
Lewis viii Not Be Nervous.
Lewis is going TO be just about
~ nervous when he faces the
Giants as he was on the day after
the Red SoN had the pennant
clnched. And no one is going To
argue that he was under any par
uoulaI strain then
