fine tribute.
Mike Mitchell should go out to the
West Side park early some morning,
station a small boy at the home plate,
get a ball and take up his stand out
in left field. Then Mike should prac-
tice throwing it to the plate until he
could hit somewhere with in ten or
fifteen feet of it. It would be a profit
able proceeding and might mean
whole lot to the Cubs as the season
progresses. Because Mike simply
cannot gauge the distance from left
field to the plate at present.
In the three Cincinnati games he
has been forced to make three throws
to Archer. One peg hit the stand be-
tween third and home and the other
two have been nearly as inaccurate.
Outside of that, Mike is coming
strong. He was away to bad start
: in hitting, but picked up while on
the road and since coming home has
been smuggling in tasty fashion. It
wouldn't be a bad idea for Clymer
and Schultz to figure out a little
teamwork on hits to right center.
There is not enough backing up.
Tinker's infield played gingery ball
yesterday, Almeida and Egan making
some sparkling stops. Joe has the
markings of a fair team, but he'll stay
around the bottom of the first dfVi-
sion until he gets some decent pitch
ing. The presence of Johnny King,
who will join the Reds Sunday in
Cincinnati, viii work a great i'm
provement in this department. In adj
dition to being a frst-class receiver,
John is a good hand to teach young
pitchers how to hold their jobs.
Some of the well-known experts
who are so prophetic when it comes
to baseball, that in the spring they
can figure out a table of how the
teams will stand at the end of the
year, with the exact number of games
won and lost, find their dope on Har-

Harry made an error 1t was referred
to in black face caps.
Little different now. Lord is doing
the best clouting of any man on the
Sox team and satisfactory number
of his blows have been delivered
where they counted. His fielding is
also good. Yesterday Lord soaked
triple, double and two singles out
of five trips to the plate, and only one
of these bingles was wasted. Zeider
is a good ball player, clever base
runner and fast fielder, but right now
Harry Lord is going better than any
third baseman in the league.
Borton and Schalk each got two
hits at opportune times, and Chick
Mattick tore loose a double that
drove in two runs. Weaver and
Schaller were the only Chicagoans
to go hitless,
Lefty Russell pitched another nice
game, allowing eight hits, Cobb and
Crawford making one each. Oscar
Witt, the Tiger second baseman, who
didn't look like much here, poked
three singles. The best part of Rus
sells work is his GOODNESS when an
avalanche of runs is threatened. The
youngster was as steady yesterday as
in the games he pitched here.
Ed Walsh will be ready to take his
place on the mound when the White
Sox return home to face the Eastern
teams. Ed worked out at Sox park
yesterday and today with Billy Sulli-
van and felt no bad effects from the
exertion. Thebig spit said he was
gradually regaining his strength and
would be in top form in a week.
Alexander, the Philly star, yester-
day made it twenty straight innings
in which he has blanked the Giants.
Last week he pitched a scoreless IL
