One day Birmingham hunted with
two men out and the bases filed,
winning the game. The team was a
run behind and the time-honored
thing was to hit the ball hard and
pray for a hit. The bunt upset the
opposing team, the pitcher went to
pieces and had to be taken out.
Next day when the opponents
were looking for hunts Birmingham
ordered his players to slug. They
knocked three pitchers. from the
box that day.
No handshaking on the field goes
with Birmingham. Games are no
longer tea parties for the rivals.
And every man, from Lajoie, who is
playing the game of his wonderful
career, to the rawest recruit, firmly
believes they will play in the worlds
series next fall.
There isn't a factional difference
on the team. The players are fight
ing for everything, but not among
themselves. And, what is more to
the point, they are demanding and
getting their share on the paths, hit
ting close to 300 as a team, and Joe
Jackson is clouting the ball around
the .450 mark.
