THE PLAY THAT PUT BONE BONEEADYET INDIANS WON THE GA
RAY HEATING, A KID STAR
ONLY PITCHER YANKS HAVE

Ray Heating, 19-yeaf-old spit
baller, appears to be the only
pitcher ON the staff of the New
York Americans.
When the Yankees were wal
lowing In despair, with 10 games
lost and but three won, all three
victories were credited to the boy
wonder, who appears to be the
only big Lacquer capable of be-
coming another Ed Walsh.
Heating won three of his first
Ave games. Now three won and
two lost is not much of per-
Torrance, but-the three were
the only games the team had won
up to that time.
Only Walter Johnson and Ed
die Plank beat Heating at that,
but the Yankees couldn't get men
around the bases, despite nine
hits.
Heating broke into fast COM
pany last fall and made one trip
with the YANKEES, losing four
games. He was purchased from
the Lawrence club of the New
England league for $1,000 upon
the recommendation of Arthur
Irwin, Yankee scout.
Frank Chance declares Keat-
ing is the best young pitcher he
ever saw-and Chance has looked
over some good ones.
Heating uses a fast ball and
the splitter. He has a near curve,
but the only time he used it this
year RUDE Oldring hit it so hard
the ball almost tore off one of
Infielder Midkiff's legs, SO the
curve was retired.
Keating's fast ball has such q
hop and his splitter breaks so vic
iously that American league bat
tiers have failed to solve him and
he LOOKS like one of the greatest
finds in baseball.

III ow They
Hare Hitting

The Tigers, as a team, slumped
i'm batting in the Victoria series,
the general average being 200.
Only six players hit over .25O,
and but three of these played reg
ulariy. It is apparent that tho
Bengals are weak with the blud-
geOn.
The real leader of the week was
Clyde Keller, although RuelI and
Bedford head him. The Tacoma
second baseman made eight hits
in six games for an average of
400. Keller has been hitting con-
sistently all the season. Ed Ken
nedy pressed him closely, also
having eight hits, but being more
times to bat, only hit 1897.
Neighbors, last weeks leader, fell
away off, hitting only ISL. Nor
dyke improved considerably, maxi
ing an average of .263.
Four extra base swats were
garnered by the Tigers, Saddle
leading with two doubles, as last
week. Kennedy hit one. Bel
ford knocked a homer-his only
hit. Kennedy stole three bases,
and Ruell, Keller, Kurfess and
Saddle one apiece. Keller aud
Neighbors tied in making the
most runs, each getting four.

NAY, PAULINE!
MATTYHASN'T
GONE BACK

The showing of the champion
New York Giants has not been
encouraging this year. The pitch
ers have not seemed to get. going
right; that is, Big Jeff Tesreau
and RUDE Marquard have not.
The only bright spot so far this
season has been the great work
of Christy Mathewson. For the
last four years carping critics
have retired him to the cellar,
only to see him continue to pitch
stellar ball. The veteran Giant Is
apparently better now than he
was last season. Il
An example Is his game against
the Chicago Cubs Monday. He
beat them badly, allowing only
three scattered hits. This is fair
sample of his work since the Open
ing of the season. He is the lead
ing HEAVIER of the Giants right
now, and more dependable than
either Tesreau or Vanguard.
Big Six has not gone back and,
Judging from his showing, is, not
likely to do so for some time.
