toriously weak on this service.
..s..: Bender Was Weak.
BENDER. who opened for the home
club, appeared unusually weak and
the Braves took liberties with his
delivery that astonished Athletic SUD-
porters.
After the contest Manager Mack
said Bender had little or nothing on
The ball. He pointed out that the Ath-
ietic5 did little hitting and said he
end his players were not bit dis
cour'agcd. Asked il he thought his
club would hit any better against the
other Boston pitchers, he replied:
Il should hate to think that we
won't"
Manager George Stallings, of the
Braves, was greatly elatcd.. He said:
We'll. the boys did exactly what ex-
pected. hate to pull the L told Y gu
co. stuff, but 1 guess the fans are be-
ginning to realize that we have got
ball club OF real class. The mourn
ers haye been waiting for us to crack
ever since the end of July, but I guess
That we can stand the strain of win
ming few days more"
