COSTLY PLAYS REMEMBERED.
Fans Will Soon Be Recalling Deeds"
 of Merkie and Snodgrass.

In the pages of baseball history a few years from now Merhe's failure to touch second will be followed close ly by Snodgrass' huff, although the the fan of today as if the former happened years ago instead of only 4 seasons ago. In 20 years you may hear somebody contending that they that would be manifestly impossible, since Merk1e's lapse cost New York a chance to play for the worlds pen nant, and Snodgrass' slip cost the big pennant which seemed already in the grasp of the Giants. The fact that the trophy was so nearly New Works is all that makes Snodgrass' huff any more notable or notorious than that same 10th inning, when the Giants apparently scored the winning tally. If that had won the game, the Hub fans always would have believed that Speaker might have thrown out Mur
 ray at the plate if he had not booted Merl<le's single. It might have dim med the glory of the immortal Iris, but it was forgotten in 10 minutes.
 Nor was Snodgrass' huff any more responsible for the loss of the game than was the failure of Merkle or Meyers to catch Speakers little foul fly just before Iris snlote the single which tied the score. But there is no use trying to rewrite history. In the memories of 8 country's baseball fans Snodgrass was the goat with a capital G.

it in after years
 Certainly no worlds series ever ber- minated in such & sensational manner as the one of last fall The only pre- vious combat for the worlds pennaut which went the limit was decided long before the final out was scored. That was when Detroit and PittsburE had to play the seventh game to determine which was the better team. The ri gers never had a look-1n on the final day, and the Pirates had the thing sewed up early. The last game of the 1911 season between the Athletics and Giants was a runaway after a few in nings. The White Sox in 1908 had their fourth victory accomplished bs- fore the ninth inning had arrived. In all other recent worlds series only five games have been played, and the final game was not at all crucial because one team could have lost it and still have the long side of the argument.
