they were lucky. No team ever
WINS pennant that doesn't get the
breaks in luck But ii was Jake
Stahl and the personality of Jake
Stahl that put the Boston Red Sox
where luck would return them pen
nant winners.
Let's make the case one of Jake
Stahl vs. luck
Wen start in by pointing out
what luck did The biggest piece
OF luck was the fact that they went
through The American league sched-
ule win scarcely an injury ana
WIN but mighty few men out of
the lineup. Heine Wagner was
injured for short time and WAS
out of the game. That's luck. It's
admitted.

but where else did the Red Sox
have luck?
In the pitching of Joe Wood. say

Speaker? iris Speaker has been
with the Red SoX for 10 these many
Years. refuse to believe that the
showing of Tris Speaker and of Joe
Wood can be traced 10 luck
would trace their great play to
Jake Stahl.
Here is what Stahl did
Jake Stahl took charge of the
Red SoX at the right moment.
There had been too much John |.
Taylor. Now. the fellow who was
formerly the sole owner of the Bos-
ton team may be one of the grand
est fellows that ever lived. but he
didn't know how to manage a ball
club.
He had a bali club that possessed
wonderful capabilities. But John |.
Taylor didn't know how TO realize
on those possibilities.
Taylor Not the Right Sort of Boss.
Jake Stahl did.
Here is concrete example. If
John |. Taylor had continued to
boss the Red SoN they would have
had a new shortstop. Heine Wag-
ner didn't make hit with Taylor.
There was time when he could
have been traded for and the Bos-
ton club would not have demanded
a star of the first realm either.
That was before Jahl Stahl took
charge. The moment he did Wag-
ner was taken from the market.
Tie couldn't be secured by trade.
And Wagner has shown that
Stahl had the right bunch. Now.
baseball men win tell YOU that
team minus star in the neigh
borhood of second and short has
no chance for the pennant. You
can accept or reject the theory
But the fact remains that Wagner
has played wonderful baseball I'M
der Stahl and if the latter became
confidential he probably would in
