hard every time up Milan never showed
better form since joining the team than
he has of late His HIT ng is not only
consistent. but he is smashing the ball
harder than he ever did before.
Frank Chance has n much improved
ball team over the one he started here
with this spring, and if he has any luck
in pick. < up p ayers by next spring he
may have something to say about the
top position in the second division next
season. One thing that Chance has ac-
complished with his players is That he
has them huStling. No matter what the
state of the game may be. the Yankees
are not stopping these days. They fight
TO the last ditch and there is some real
hope for the team. though, of course
neither Chance nor any other living bein
can make a winner out of a team which
needs good playing material and Chance
is still a bit short on that.
Cree had a peculiar record at the bat
today. He went out at first the first
time up and walked the three remaining
times that he faced the pitcher. Groom
walked him twice and Love once.
Griffith is trying to teach Love how to
pitch spitball. Slim, it seems. is lack
ing a good curve, and Griffith fears that
he will not be able to get away with his
speed alone after the American League
batters once find that they need not ex-
pect a curve. So he wants to teach him
a splitter, and every day the tall south
paw is taken out and given practice
with the moistened sphere. For some
unaccountable reason Love cannot make
his curves break as they should. and
until he does he is not apt to be a sue
cess. And there is no reason for his
failure to have a curve. for he has long
fingers and a good. snappy arm.
Just what sort of a lineup Connie Mack
will send in against the Nationals during
his stay in Washington remains to be
seen That he proposes to rest his regu-
lars for several days before the series
opens is as good as decided. but when he
Will take on the rest cure is not at al GER
tain One thing, however is certain-he
is not going to overwork any of the pitch
ers he will use against the Giants. so
there will be a good chance for the Ma
tionals to fatten their batting averages.
Not unlikely, however. is it that Plank
and Bender will each pitch few innings
during their stay in Washington. for they
will need a workout to put them on edge
for the big games.
II is doubtful if team ever played
three better games i'm the field than have
the Nationals here. Their work has been
sensational in every game, and not in
frequently have the spectators been
forced to give applause The work of the
infield has been particularly brilliant,
every man on il figuring in sensational
plays in every one of the games. New
York fans and critics have a very high
opinion of the Nationals and pronounce
them the best looking ball team that Wis
its the Polo Grounds in the American
league.
