thinking parts of the team. Frankly,
there are not too many brains being
carried around by South Side ball
players, and Lord, slow and weak at
the bat, was more valuable than some
Of the agile athletes because he en-
iOyed a thought now and then, and
knew what to do when he got on base
or received a batted or thrown ball.
Weaver has been appointed captain
more as a matter of form than any
thing else. Buck is a conner, and is
gradually beginning to think before
he makes plays. But he is extremely
careless at times, and is not steady
enough to- balance a young nfield.
Chase, over at the first corner, is a
wise bird, has had managerial. expert
ence, and was the logical candidate
for captain.
The honor, however, meant little to
Hal, and it may have good effect on
Weaver's work. The added response
bility may serve as a balanceT.
Mechanically the team will not lose
by the detection Of Lord. AlcOck is
younger and faster, can field the posi-
ton, stands well at the plate, and
swings sharply at good pitches. He is
not a star now, bat because of the
scarcity of material for the third cor
ner will be given every opportunity to
develop.
Lord was criticized by Callahan for
not covering his base at one point in
the first Washington game. But that
would hardly have caused him to quit.
Lord is not believed to have much
money laid by, and needs what he
earns on the diamond.
There is a strong possibility that
he will go to some Federal League
club after taking a rest at his Maine
home. The punk showing Of the SOX
in the last couple Of years has gotten
on the nerves of more than one play
v,,,v,Tv WOULD lilo a Of
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-05-14

a fact that as soon as a man comes
to the SOX his batting seems to fall
off.
Lord would be a good man for the
Feds, even though he took little part
in the actual battles. He is a good
organizer, knows baseball from top
to bottom, and would be a tutor for
young players.
He would also be invaluable as a
minor league manager.
1t is a good bet that Lord will be
back in baseball within a few days,
though the chances are strong
against him returning to the SOX.
Cap Weaver is out of the game with
an injured hand, and Berger took his
place at short yesterday. With the
exception Of Chase, the infield was
made up Of youngsters, in the sense
of major league experience, but they
played bang-up ball. Berger seemed
glad to get back his old position at
short, and handled ten chances. He
surprised every one by jamming out
double and triple. AlcOck and Black
burne both failed to hit safely.
In every department the Sox played
improved ball. They wallOped an
even dozen hits out of three of Grit
fith's young pitchers, and got the
safeties in punches. Hal Chase was
high gun with two singles, a double
and triple. Bodie got two singles and
Russell, two singles and a triple.

their heads in the air, followed the
ball, and acted like regular baIlplay->
eTs. Schalk was back behind the bat,
and, though five bases were stolen on
him, caught nice ball. The majority
Of the steals were recorded after the
SOX had the game sewed up, and Ray
was not taking chances with his arm.
Reb Russell was dropped into a soft
place, something that seldom hap
