The failure of the Pittsburgh Ma
tionals and the Boston Americans In
the present campaign can be directly
attributed to series of games which
these two teams played early in March
at Hot Springs, Ark. Neither team had
been in training more than a week or
so, and was not ready for the strenu-
Gus efforts they put into their playing
in these games. during which great
deal of rivalry developed.
Neither team has recovered from this
series. The players have gone stale
and unable to do themselves oustlce.
with the result that neither has played
anywhere near expectation, ana Is
holding a comparatively lowly posltlon
in their respective races.
1t is needless to say that in the lu-
ture neither the Boston nor the Pitts
burgh team will indulge in any such
series The two were picked to cut a
figure in the pennant races, yet Dotn
have been failures for the reason that
they were forced to go at top speed
long before they were in condition to
do so.
II it happens that the Athletics and
Giants battle in the worlds series TINS
fall. it is needless to say that the
Mackmen will be topheavy favorites
over the National Leaguers. and yet 1T
would not be at all surprising II the
McGrawites were returned winners. 1t
must be conceded that in the two series
in which the Giants have taken part
they have had absolutely none Of the
breaks of luck. Their defeat by the
Boston Red SOX last season was moth
ing, more nor less than fiuke. Mathew
son should have won every game he
pitched against Boston, yet the Giants
were beaten in the final game, when
they should have won majority OF the
games without much trouble.
There is no doubt that the Athletics are
the better ball team, but the best team
does not always win in a series Of SO
short duration as the world series.
The unsatisfactory system by which the

official averages are now compiled, De-
cause Of the appointment of incompetent
individuals to serve as onclal scorers
should be called to the attention Of those
in whose charge the game is held. The
ma jor leagues may have some hesitancy
about taking the appointment of the Of
fetal scorers upon themselves, but the!
would undoubtedly consent to allow the
base ball writer's to look after this END
of the game, and in order that this asso-
citation does not create friction by reason
of appointing the official scorers it would
be wise to have them serve without COM
pensation.
Base ball averages furnish some very
interesting dope. yet unless the scores
are recorded by individuals who are ia
miliar with the rules and do not show
prejudice in their scoring the averages
are not only deceptive but worthless.
Because of various unfounded rumors
the impression has been created that Ty
Cobb will be playing elsewhere than in
Detroit ere long. The fact that Cobb is
on record as desiring a change Of clubs
has lent truth to these stories. and yet
there is not a chance of Cobb getting
away from the Tigers. The Detroit club
could not afford to part with its greatest
money might be offered for Cobb. De-
troit has developed into an excellent base
ball city within the last few years. The
attendance there is remarkable, notwith-
standing the fact that the team is not a
contender in the race. and it would be
ruined If Cobb should be sold to some
other team.
Griffith is sure to have two young
pitchers to help out here in the fall. who
are already the property Of the Wash
ington club. Doc .Ayres of Richmond
and Jim Shaw Of York are the two re-
cruits who. judged on the good work they
have been doing this season. stand "A
chance of adding further strength to the
Nationals staff.
Shaw is but nineteen-year-o young
ster He is bigger than Walter johnson
and, like him, has long arms and a world
of speed. He is getting his first lessons
in professional base ball at York. while
Ayres, who is pitching for Richmond, is
seeing his second year in the game. Both
give promise of making good and Griffith h
will have look at them this fall.

What promises to be splendid pitch
ers' battle is slated TO be witnessed at
the local ball park this afternoon, when
Joe fsoehling. who holds the record OF
eleven consecutive victories, will be
pitted against Leyerenz, the st. Louis
Browns clever left handler. Leverenz.
while he has mot been winning as has
Boehling has displayed remarkable
form in the majority of his games and
has in the several games ne has pitched
against the Nationals held them well
in. hand. and if he is in form today
Boehling will have to go at top speed
in order TO annex his twelfth straight
game.
A victory today may be of the great
est Importance. for there is good
chance that both Cleveland and Ath-
letics max receive another tumble.
The Yankees are going better than they
did earlier in the season and besides
they seem to make a practice OF beat
ing the Maps in a majority of games,
while Detroit will have Dauss un-
doubtedly one of the best young pitch
ers 70 break into the .leag0e this year,
TO work against the Mackmen, and he
has already scored two victories over
them.
While the pitching strength. of the
Browns makes them formidable OPP
ponent the Nationals are much better
ball team than Stovall can boast OF. ana
for this reason they should be able 10
make q clean sweep of the series mere.
In fact this is as good as assured
il oehling can get away with his game
today, for it is virtually settled that
Walter Johnson will work in the f1nal
game Of the series tomorrow.
Johnson. it is said. has about re-
covered from the spike wound he re-
ceiyed from Bert Shotten in the game
Friday. The injury has healed much
more rapidly than was expected. and ne
expects TO be able TO take his turn on
the rubber tomorrow.
Many complaints are being lodged be-
cause of the inaccuracy of the score
cards sold at the local park. Only in
rare instances are the batting orders
given correctly. and frequently cards are
being sold which do not even have the
correct visiting team on them. More
care should be taken in the getting out

correct. SO fer as it is possible to have
them they are worthless.
Philadelphia critics are expressing sur
prise that Manager Griffith should figure
his team as having chance to beat out
the Athletics. The long lead which the
Mackmen have is pointed out as being an
unsurmountable obstacle, though 1t Is ad-
mitted that the Nationals are sure to
make a strong finish. There is no deny
ing the fact that Griffith has a chance to
accomplish the feat of finishing first with
his team. 1t is a remote one, to be sure
but it is a chance. and he surely would
be a weak -kneed leader IL he showed any
signs of giving up While that chance eX-
lists.
1t depends entirely on whether a right
or left handler pitches for the Browns to-
day as to whether CalvO will be played
in the outfield or not. The Cuban would
be handicapped against left-hander and
for this reason is not played against
them. But It is likely that Joe GedeOn
will apear in the outfield if a southpaw
works for the visitors. Gedeon was orig
inay an outfielder, and all he needs is a
little practice in handling flies, for he is
good on ground balls and has a great
throwing arm.
When the present season is over it
will be found that Ray Morgan has
proven himself one of the most improved
ball players in the league. Now that
Ray has learned to play second base
which was new to him last season, he is
showing splendid form I'm the position
while his hitting is of the best. Morgan
was a shortstop in the minors. He was
tried at third base, and was by no means
failure there, but when Griffith secured
Foster. Morgan was shifted to second
base, where he seems to have become a
star
