The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1913-05-29

The Phillies made short work Of John
SON, the Reds Indian hurler. They
drove him from the box in three innings.
The Pirates stopped Brooklyn's winning
streak last week Honus Wagner did some
great work in this series.
The Cards had good trip. In fact
made the best showing of any of the West
ern teams abroad. Lee Magee is subbing
at short in place of Charley O'Leary, who
is out with an injury. Whitfield, recruit,
is filling acceptably the third base position
vacated by Mowrey who is also out of the
game. Ivy Wingo is demonstrating that
he is a pretty nifty little catcher.
The Cubs are back home. That's all.
They are due for brace right now pro-
viding Charley Murphy produces some of
those valuable players he has been promis
ing to buy. But the impression grows
that Murphy likes to hear the sound of
his own voice. The Cubs are out of the
race unless some pitchers are secured who
can deliver.
The Phllies had fine sat home session.
! Fifteen won, three lost. Two postponed.
| After hard series just finished at Brook
/ Ign they are now engaged in the pleasant
pastime of walloping the Giants their most
deadly enemey. If Dooin's men can take
a majority of these six games it will be a
long stride pennantward. They have
three postponed and two tie games to play
off on this trip. The former with Boston
and the latter with the Giants. The
Phillies should be able to annex a goodly
percentage of their games on this trip for
the simple reason that their pitchers are all
i going we'll. With the exception of Brook
lyn, that is something that cannot be said
of any other team in the league. Then,
too, their proves with the stick Is going
to give them great advantage over their
lesser rivals.
In game with Chicago last week the
Bosten Braves scored five runs in the
eighth inning on bases on balls; hit bat
ter, and single. They lost the game al
that.
The Maps are doing pretty we'll consid-
ering their string of injured players. Nov
that they are on the road they will have to
in second place. Playing before hostile
crowds isa good test of any teams strength
The Tigers gave the Athletics battle
royal. 1t seems that Detroit reserves it
best efforts for the MacKmen. Ty Cobt
covered himself with glory, and, indeed
. pulled at leaa one game out of the fire.
The Athletics, though still at the top
have been losing ground of late. This il
!, due to the absence of the veterans CoOmbs
Bender and Plank and the ineffectiveness o
the young pitchers.
1t is understood that the Chicago Club
has asked for waivers on pitcher Reulbach
Maybe Big Ed is playing for release
There will be plenty of managers who viii
make bid for him.
Some members of the team are doing uni
formly good work, notably Zimmerman
He is, however, continually getting th'
Angora of Manager Evers and unless they
patch up their differences it is hard to SCI
where Tim gets off.
Overall seems to be sure enough com,
back. He has shown the stuff at every ap
pearance altho not all the games were won
, If he gets perfect control his services will
greatly aid the faltering Cubs.
Manager Stahl has rejoined the Red So,
after siege in the hospital. 1t is not likel,
he will resume playing for some time.
