FAMOUS THREE
FOR IS YEARS
Wagner, Clark and Leach of
Pittsburg Made 5,905 Hits
While Working Together

When Pittsburg traded Tommy
Leach and Lefty" Lieield to the Chi
caso Cubs for Artie Hoffman and
King Cole, one of the greatest Of
trios of baseball players known in. the
history OF the game was forever brok-
EN-.
This trio vas composed of Honus
Wagner, Fred Clarke and Tommy
leach, the Big Three" 1t was form
ed thirteen a ago, when in the
season Of 1899 Tommy Leach, a fast
boy. was sent to play third base for
the Louisville Colonels, which team
was then on the National league cir.
cult.
Probably no such trio ever played
together as did the mighty Wagner.
the great leader, Clarke, and fast
brainy Leach.
After playing together in Louisville
one year the National league circui,
was cut down to eight clubs, and
burg in 1900, and Fred Clarke was
made manager.
In 1901. 1902 n 1903 Pittsbure
Won the National league pennant. In
1903 Pittsburg lost in the worlds
championship series to the Boston
Americans after winning three of the
first foul games.
Clarke, at the head of the peerless
trio. kept on, and in 1909 again won
the pennant and beat Detroit for the
worlds championship.
, Leach always batted before Clarke
and Clarke before Wagner. and many
a pitcher vent out of the game brok-
~en-hearted through the hitting and
base running Of the three. Pittsburg
known as a three-man team
through their great work.
! Some idea of the Notwithstanding
pace led by these men can be had
from the fact that 5.905 times they hit
safely after coming to bat no more
than 1908 times. OF these 5,905
hits the total bases were $500, and
gers. and 155 times their clouts We're
good for the whole circuit. How they
ran bases can be told no better than
the record of 1859 steals show.
These great players combined han
died 1880 chances out of a total of
1883.
! Leach wound up his great Pitts
burg career against st. Louis by send
ing a fly to Evans in right field, but
not until he had hit two singles and
q t%hree-base hit, helping Marty
ting end in Pittsburg for Leach, be-
cause 22,5O0 fans who watched him
for years saw his career in a Pirate
uniform come to a glorious close.
AS this multitude looked on not a
soul kne what the Wee, who was re-
sponsible for six of the runs in that
game. would no more drive men
ahead of him and coach faltering Pr.
ate
In eleven of the thirteen years that
Leach was with P%ittsburg he made
over 100 hits per year. while another
year he made 90. In 1900 he was in
only IS games, making "a hits.

was still uncompleted when the game
was ended. Mathewson tossed % balls
to batters in that inning, ten Of which
were called balls. Mathewson gave
bases on balls TO five Boston men aft
er having pitched 20 innings in the
series without a pass.
Bedient threw SO balls to New
ed. while Wood tossed "a balls ir
three innings.
Mathewson guaged the position
style and characteristics Of every bat
ter who faced him. For those who
stood away from the plate he threw
consistently over the inside corner
and for those close to the rubber hi
just cut the outside corners. During
the early innings his control was re-
markable.
Attendance Light.
The total paid attendance at yester-
days game WAS 1904. The total re-
ceipts $40. 500 of which each club re-
ceived $13.725 and the national COM
mission $1,000.

THE HONESTY
OF BASEBALL

Ii is greatly to the credit of the
honesty with which the national game
-baseball-is conducted that the
more conversant n is with it the
more certain he is that the worlds
series is played on the level. It is
only the man who does not follow
the game except when some such Sc
ries Is played who doubts the genuine
ness of the contest. He knows that
there is a great deal of money a,
stake and thinks that players arc apt
20 throw the game in order to stretch
out the series and increase the gate
receipts.
The fact that the series seldom. If
over. goes the limit: hat 1t has been
eettled with five games. one more
Than was necessary to decide the
championship when the first game
was O tie, makes no difference to the
suspicious mortal who can't see why
ball players won't be crooked when
they have a chance. But the enor-
mous interest in the contests, the ex-
element they stir up in every city.
every village. every hamlet in the
prove that they are h%onorably con-
Quoted.
The players participate only in the
receipts of the first four games. The
winners receive enough more than
the losers to make the winning of
these four games we'll worth the best
effort. This removes every tempta-
ton the players have to throw games.
AS a matter of fact, the baseball
rank mi file is recruited from a class
who are wrapped up in the sport. and
every real sportsman knows tina the
desire to win in a hot contest is the
supreme thought in a sportsman's
mind.-Philadelphia Times.
