PITCHERS FAILURES
 AGAINST SOME TEAMS

TT is peculiar how some pitchers can
 not do good work against certain teams. Willie Mitchell of the Cleve- land Maps, for instance, who pitched a thirteen inning game against the Ath- letics recently, has never finished a game he started against the Washing ton team For Grifdth's team Mitchell is the easiest kind of a proposition, and four or five innings are his usual limit
 Cicotte of the Chicago White Sox is another pitcher who never shows good form against the Athletics. He is nearly always forced to retire before half the game is over, and yet he is successful against several other clubs

McGrawFfas His Own Idea 0fBatting

tfon you usually yank the pitcher and send up reserve batter. If he GaIla down you've accomplished nothing and lost a pitcher who, perhaps, was going very fairly, while his successor may get the life beaten out of him
 With your eighth batter a 300 point man you have a good show to get him on, none out and your pitcher ups then you can take a chance on keeping tho pitcher in, as he may at least deliver a sacrifice or advance the runner on his out. Since Snodgrass has been burning the leather I only have e take out pitchers when their slab Worl is poor. not to use sub hftters-"

A LTHOUGH Fred Snodgrass of the
 Giants is now way. over 300 and hitting furiously, John McGraw keeps him batting eighth and says he will hold him there. Tt has just occurred to me- says John J., that this old idea of putting the two weakest hitters of the team eighth and ninth. where they can spoil a rally. is fossilized foolishness. If the eighth man is a slugger he will come to the rescue time and again, and what's more, will do away with the problem that confronts a manager when it's a close pinch, the pitcher up and one down. In that situa-

when the chance came he was ready to broken any records as base runner, but he fell only one hit shy of leading the National league in batting two years ago and was right up among the first few last year. He is always ca pabEe of hitting 300 or better
 Bender a Dependable Pitcher.
 Bender of the Athletics is not only a star pitcher, but he inherits much of the craftiness of his race and has used it to good advantage in baseball. Ben der, who is also known as Chief" in Philadelphia, is one of the most de- pendable of Connie Mack's hur1ing staff. Last season he experienced his first bad year in the game, and it was due largely to his lack of form that the Athletics failed to pin the pennant. season, and the Athletics likewise are up at the top again. apparently intend ing to stay there:
 Bender exemplffies his craftiness in the manner in which he handles op- posing batters. He is cool deliberate and stoica1. He is exceptionally keen eyed and seldom misses a chance to get the better of a situation. He is a mighty reliable pitcher under trying circumstances. It was said after the worlds series between the Athletics characteristic keen sightedness, had caught on to the signals of McGraw' s team and that by this means the Attn letics were enabled to forestaI every move that was planned by the Giants Bender was on the coaching lines a great deal through that series, and it was claimed that he kept his team

 Tomorrow came, and Doc White de- cided to do a little pitching himself. He desired to see how Bogus would hit against a southpaw who had a change of pace. It might be mention ed Bogus was a left handed hitter. Bo- gus struck out a starter, not com ing within a foot of Whites tantalizing slow ball. The same thing happened in the fourth

 There are probably no more prom inent figures in baseball today than the Indians in the National and American leagues John T. Meyers better known to the fans as Chief" the formidable backstop of the Giants, is likely the best known of them all, because he happens to be with a team that is all ways followed with great interest and because also ability as a batter is one of the assets of the team and matter of deep concern to opposing pitchers. ~Chtefss Bender of the Athletics whose pitching has helped to win two cham pfonships and as many world cham pionsh1ps for Connie Mack is a big figure, and James Thorpe and George Johnson have been placed in the list this year to add to the prestige of the Indian in baseball
