El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1912-07-20

San Antonio, Tex, July 2O.-The- fea-
ture of the Texas league race during
the last 10 days has been the remark
able squirt made by the san Antonio
team That organization won eight
straight games on the road, defeating
Beaumont and Galveston each four
games, and returned to the home
grounds and defeated Dallas four
straight games. making a record of y
straight victories.
While San Antonio was doing this
Houston was meeting defeat at the
hands OF some of the weaker teams and
there is now less that six games be-
tween the San Antonio team and Hous-
ton, which for time looked like it had
walk-away for the pennant.
Consistent smuggling has been res
ponsible for the winning streak of the
Brcnchos. All pitchers have looked
alike to them The san Antonio tWirl-
ers have also been doing exceptionally
good work. On the other hand HOus-
ton has not been playing good ball in
any department.
Manager Leidy is attempting to make
his last year with the san Antonio
team a record by winning a pennant.
He has announced that next year he
Will become a scout for the st. Louis
Browns and will leave the Texas league
for good. He mas been manager OF the
team here for five years and has al
ways had a first division team, but
has never won the pennant. Leidy has
always been a good judge of young
ball players and having been for years
a major league star ne viii probably
make a very good scout for the
Browns.
Houston is badly crippled. Davis
and Newman are both out of the game
and il is almost impossible to replace
either of them. With first base and
shOrtStOp covered by men unable to
meet the requirements of the places
leaves the team in z bad way. While
Houston has been crippled 1t has
served 20 bring the strong points OF
the players who have been standing
the brunt Of the hard work. Farmer
Ray, formerly of the St. Louis Browns,
has proved source Of unexpected
strength He had bad time of it dur
ing the earlier part of the season, but
is nov second III standing on the
Houston pitching staff ana made the
remarka Bile record in this league OF
winning seven straight games. his
percentage is well over the 500 mark.
With the fight for the pehnant
strictly between san Antonio and
Houston It is well to note that san
Antonio is winning by smuggling rather
than by machine work When a club
is clouting at a happy average of .261
for the season there is something to it.
1t is probable no better hitting infield
has ever been gathered IN class 3
club than is presented by Metz, Seitz,
Wallace and Alidkiff. The team has
one vulnerable spot, however, its pitch
erS. There are but four of them, Ayers,
Goodwin. Browning and Rogers. They
are by no means the class of the
league as tWirlers but they have had
that great batting support behind
them. This may keep the team win
ming.
