Reckless Work
Helps Dodgers

According TO John McGraw. the
Brooklyn team Is winning because 1t
In playing reckless ball" He says
that Dahlen's team will finish IN the
first division. but has no chance for
the pennant. The Giants manager
intimates that the reckless BALI THAI
the Dodgers are playing IL not real
good baseball. He has evidently for
gotten. though, that tho Athletics put
the skids under the Cubs and then the
Giants In two successive worlds series
by playing the same kind OF reckless
ball" For instance. our home run
fAvorite, Baker. was reckless" enough
to pass up a base on balls TO wallop
the ball out OF the lot. Baker and
Eddie Collins were continually pulling
the reckless" thing all through the
worlds series games with the Cubs
and the Giants and all they got for
their pains was two worlds cham
pionahtps. What McGraw has to say
OF the Brooklyn team should be taken
with q grain OF salt II seems. McGraw
and Ebbets are deadly enemies. and
nothing would please the manager OF
tho Giants better than to zee the
Euperbas in last place. Then. too,
the Giants are not going near % we'll
a. their manager would like to see,

should be in a very pesstmistic frame
OF wind.

said Egan, "and he's made 1t hot for
O'Loughiin. Dinneen. Ferguson and
some OF the others. but he can't put
anything over on me. But so far as
I can remember, nothing in my report
put any blame on Birmingham for the
pop-hottle throwing"
BIRMINGHAM did try to stop It -
soon as possible. didn't he ?" was ask

II don't know what he tried to do

WAGNER REPLACED
BY JACK MILLER
PIRATE STAR BENOKED FOR NE
DEFINITE TTME-RECOvER-
ING FROM INJURIES.

PTTTSBURG. July 5.-Coincident
with the announcement that Larry
LAjoie, the great Cleveland player.
was to be retired to the bench and be
used only IN the role of pinch hitter
comes the announcement by the
Pittsburg Baseball club officials that
Wagner will adorn the bench for a
time. This move liz considered here
to be an admission that the big
Dutchman's'' active playing days are
about over.
Manager Fred Clarke has shifted
Jack Miller. who has been playing
brilliant ball at first base. TO short,
supplanting Wagner. who. It was
stated. would remain on the bench
until he lie fully recovered from his
injuries. Ham Hyatt the big Pirate
pinch hitter, will play the nrst bag
position. When he announced these
changes, Manager Clarke said that
Miller would remain in the shortstop
position for an indefinite period.
Asked IL It meant that Wagner was
through as a regular on the team. the
Pirate leader said that he did not
care to say anything further just
now.
Wagner during the last two years
has been frequently out OF the Pr
rate lineup owing to tnjurieA This
year an accident to his knee in the
early season forced him out OF the
game for . couple of weeks. and since
re1oining the team his work has been
far from his usual standard. While
his hitting has been fair. his work
around the shortstop position. where
he has played 20 brilliantly for many
years, has bean woefulfy weak ana
slow. Fans who closely follow the
fortunes Of the Pirates have been pre-
dieting for several weeks that Wag-
ner would soon be supplanted At
shortstop and would most likely
adorn the bench for the balance OF
the season.
