and Manager Stahl was anxious to win
the game. for his lead was being threat
ened. Wood was selected for the box
work. and turned in his usual game. the
score being Il to in favor of the Red
Sox.
Ty Cobb remarked once: Joe Wood
can beat the Giants If he uses speed.
He must cut out the slow ones when
that they like myself. kill ones with
little speed behind them The next day
Wood caught the great Cobb twice with
his slow drop, and rescued himself from
two trying positions.
What Wood wants behind the bat is a
catcher who can cut off base runners by
extra fine throwing. He can do effective
work without being coached by his
catcher. Forrest Cady, he believes, is
good man to receive his delivery and Cady
has shown by his work that WOOD mas
made no mistake.
1t is a treat to see Wood go through
his preliminary work before game. he
will begin throwing straight with little
til he has the ball breaking to his salts
faction and finish with speed.
Never Put Out of Game.
Joe Wood has never been fined or put
out of game by the umpires. The fans
never call him Wood" it is always Joe
Wood He is the most graceful pitcher
in the game and a thorough sportsman.
Often before a game Wood goes behind
Ihe bat during batting practice and
catches Larry Pape. His wonderful whip
is shown to great advantage by the way
he cuts the ball down to second. Man
ager Stah1 is jealous of his prize pitcher,
though, and chases him from behind the
plate. Wood then tries out the various
positions in the infield as well as the out
field. His work in every position Is note
worthy and If ever he goes back as a
pitcher and wants to remain in the game
there are many clubs which would like to
secure him as an infielder.
Wood tells this story of how he broke
into the game: When 1 reported for
duty with the Hutchinson team / was
signed as a shortstop The other in
fielders were veterans and the pitching
staff was composed of stable of good
old has beens. j was versatile even then
and after receiving my tryout in the in
field would go out and gallop all over
the lot chasing flies. Then sometimes I'd
go over to a corner of the outfield with
one of the second string catchers and
burn a few over.

Little Third BaSeman.
SECOND TIME EDDIE
HAS BEEN BROKEN IN
Was With New York for
a While, But Was Let Go.
Fast and Covers Much
Ground.

CHICAGO. September Eddie Foster,
third baseman OF the Washington club. is
the best Young player to come into the
American League this year. in the opin-
ion of President Ban johnson
The head of The American League
voiced this opinion when asked TO nam.
the best ail-around young ball PLAYER az
this years vintage. This IS What John
son says OF Foster:
Foster Is but one of several very fast
players who have made great records in
their first eason's efforts. When every
view or Fosters work is considered how
ever. 1 believe he is entitled 10 the honor
of leading the list.
Foster is a fast fielder covers a lot
of ground. hits we'll and plays a mag
nficent inside game lie il a wise PLAYER
in every way and Is improving all OF the
time.
Second Adventure in League.
This is his second adventure in the
American League, and he learned much
by his first experience. Like many a
young player, he was not ready for fast
company the first lime mp. and he did
not know how TO take care Of himself.
1T is different now, however. for he
mas learned his lesson well and realizes
1t is up to him to keep himself I'm con
dftion to deliver the best base ball that is
in him.
Foster is a Chicago boy. He was dis
covered by Robert McRoy when Robert
was manager of a semi-pro team several
years ago. He was with the New York
team In 1910, but was not of much use.
was sold to Rochester OF the Inter
national League. He played great ball
for Rochester and last fall Jim McAleer
spent two weeks watching him before he
made up his mind to take him To WASH
ington. McAfeer told me at that time
that Foster was tho best Young play er
he had seen anywhere that season.
Covers Much Ground.
1.-The only possible objection to Foster
might be that he IN small. though this
does not appear to handicap him, for he
covers as much ground as any third base
man, and his speed In getting after the
ball is enough to make up for any lack
Of inches. He throws to first accurately
and fast and from almost any position.
1T is q delicate thing for me to pick q
player as the best youngster in the Amer
ican League, hut / feel that Foster de-
serves the distinction. and IL Is no dis
credit at all for any OF the other young
stars that he should be chosen. On the
other hand, it should be an incentive for
young players to work hard to make as
good a record as Foster has made for
| himself

accept the chance. | entered the box and
from that day on l have been a pitcher.
None of the members of the team could
hit me and / was. hailed far and wide as
a find after pitching few games which
won.'
In his first season with the Red Sox,
1909, Woods record Of games was eleven
won and seven lost. The next year he won
twelve and lost thirteen, when his team
fell away down the ladder. but last year
he came back and finished with a record
of tWenty-three games won and seven
teen lost. He has twice pitched no-hit
games once when with Hutchinson and
last year against the st. Louis Browns.
Best Against Browns.
Against the St. Louis Browns Wood is
at his best. There is never any question
as to who wins when he faces that team.
The explanation necessary about game
in which he pitches against the tailend-
ers Of the American League Is Wood
pitched" His best work has been done
against this team, and time and time
again shutout. no-hft game or a no.
spoiled by Shotten of the Browns. Shot
ten is a regular Jinx for Wood.
Wood is not superstitious. but he would
rather sit up all night than sleep in
berth No. or Pullman sleeper. Incl
dentaliy Woods name is not Joe" at all
When he was younger the boys called
him Joe, though his name was not Jo-
seph. and it has always been Joe Wood
since then.
Wood was born in Kansas City, October
