he predicts that the Seals will land in

ends.
Bud Pernoll. who was released by
the Oaks several days ago, and later
signed by the Seals, accompanied the
team south. He will pitch in one of
the games against the Angels.

that IL you. pull off a brilliant play
and 1t goes wrong you're a bonehead
If you stage a bone and you are
lucky enough to get away with it
you are a great fellow. Some truth
in Mr.. McArdle's remarks.
With Charles on the injured list.
Howard is going south with a lim-
tied amount of infielders. However,
he has several versatile players on
his staff who he can shift around.
McArdle can play any position in the
infield, while Hogan can be brought
in to play first base. Schaller is
ready to take his turn in the out
field. He is not likely to be used, as
Hogan is hitting the ball and How

Some Batters Can
Hit Some Pitchers
All Over the Lot

1t has long been a well known fact
that Joe Tinker can hit each season
at about a 500 clip against Christy
Mathewson. and II must be dawning
on Richard Marauard that Sherwood
Magee of the Phillies has designs on
becoming Marquard's Tinker. The
Quaker slugger has faced Marquard
10 times this season and has maced
him for brace of doubles and a trio
of homers. That makes his batting
average 500, and his total batting
average 1900.
Magee secured two home runs Off
MarQuard in the game OF May 3 and
garnered a double and a homer in the
controversy OF August IS.
Two of Marquard's defeats he can
trace absolutely to Magee, for on May
5 Sherwood batted in four runs while
the Giants were making three, and
on August 2s the Dooinite hammered
home three tallies while the McGraw
ties were acquiring a pair of markers.
Marquard has only baffied the
Quaker hitsmith once this season,
striking him out on May 2.

and that misses a ball game as much

GIANTS HAVE WORRIED
The Giants have done their share
Of worrying In the past month, too
The failure of some of the pitchers to
show their best form, combined with
one Of the worst batting slunps the
club has ever experienced, is largely
responsible for the anxiety. Neither
Tesreau nor I have been at our best
for a month. Demaree and Marquard
having done the best work The long
summer seemed TO drag on me. and
| Tesreau has had an in and out year.
But the pitching Is not altogether to
blame. It has been necessary for the
twirlers to deliver practically shutout
ball for them to win one because of
the light hitting recently.
The New York club has always
batted harder on the road than at
home for the last three seasons.
Therefore, we were all glad to get
away on the road this time. We also
/ felt that we would have to settle
1 down and work, and the air of conf
dence which the players wore when
they returned from their last western
trip had been completely dissipated
