'MATTY TALKS OF THE 'STALLINGS 1
Shift; big WORRY FOR PITCHERS

believe you will see many mana.
gers next year developing two sets or
CGtfielders and making this "Stalling9
shift" TO lit the opposing pitcher. be-
cause there is no question that Il did
a great deal toward winning the pen
nant and worlds championship for
Boston. Stallings was the first mama
ger to realize it's real value, but the
others will quickly grab at IT, In case
this shift does become general the
managers will do more iockeying in
the preliminary announcement OF
pitchers than ever before, Here Is an
instance OF how II may work out:
What Cobb Would Have Done.
When Connie Mack announced Ben.
der as his pitcher for the first game
OF the worlds series. Ty Cobb, sitting
next to ME in the press stand at Phil
adelphia, said:
IF had been him I would have an.
nounced Plank Then Stallings would
have had to announce his right hand
hitters in the batting order. Mack
could have switched right back 20
Bender, and SIallings would have had
to come with his left hand hitters.
That would have automatically put
the right hand swingers out Of the
game for the day after they had once
been announced. Then, II Mack want.
ed to use a left nander in the box lat.
er, Stallings would have been forced
to keep his left hand hitters n
against him"
"Ty's" reasoning was right, OF
course. Mack had no intention OF
working Plank on the .hrst day under
any conditions, because he did not
want to waste MIN but wished to have
him for the following game. He could,
however, have used him in the an
nouncement for bait to put Stallings'
right hand hitters out of It. This Is 4
sample of the jockeying We may ex-
pect next year should this system OF .
double outfield become generally pop.
ular, as l have no DOUBT 1t viii.

BY cARlsTY mATHewsoN.

How does Stallings win games is
the question | have had fired at me a
thousand times since the manager OF
the Boston club won the worlds cham
pionship in four straight games. 1t
has been aimed at me both in letters
and in conversation.
The one word which comes nearest
to covering the method of this man
is study. He studies his opponents.
+ and he studies his own men. and he
studies the game and lis possibilities.
| However, there is a maneuVer he used
this year on which want 10 dwell,
since it seems TO me to have passed
more or less unnotiCed. StallinSS
| worked uR and applied theory to his
, batting order which had been employ
ed only in makeshift fashion up to
this season. | consider it one OF the
most important pieces OF stratagem in
his march TO the pennant.
, Braves Apparently No Team.
In commenting on the Boston club
before the worlds series, one writer
said:
1t is not a team, just a collection
of ballplayers. The ordinary follower
of baseball cannot tell from one day
to the next which man will appear
in which positions"
The shift which Stallings used in
his batting order. depending uEon
whether a right or left nander was
working against him, is the key to this
comment. Stallings consistently
switched his ou:fiel0 all the latter
part of the season. With a right
handler in the box Connolly, Moran
and Whitfield played the outfield. while,
with a southpaw at work, Connolly
and Moran were replaced by Gather
and Mann Connolly and Moran are
left handed hitters, always more dan
gerous against a right hand pitcher,
while Mann and Gather swing from
the right side of the plate. Whitfield
is also a right handed hitter and on
occasions he was replaced by Devore,
a left handler, making two complete
sets of outfielders.
The shift added batting strength to
the team for many reasons. One, and
an important one, is that a right hand
swinger stands a better chance Of hit
ting left hand pitching. But even out
side of the total of actual base hits,
Stallings quickly observed an adEant-
age at which he was glad to grab.
When a left handed pitcher sees "a
succession of right handlers facing him
he Is worried He knows that they
are more liable to hit him, and he
knows that he will be forced to go
IthFuugh the game working all the way,
since there are no spots" in the bat
ting order. q
When left handed batter is facing
southpaw pitcher he is out of posi-
ton to hit, even more so, for some
reason or other, than when a right
handed batter meets a southpaw. Only
a very few men in the big leagues
who swing left handed can bat right
and left hand pitching equally well.
These are the ones who, in the YER
nacular of the profession, fall away
on their backs and hit"

bulletin BOYS
WIN thrilling
INDOOR CONTEST

(12 innings. >. !
Last night at the Kakaako hall a
large crowd was treated to the clas-
siest game of indoor ball ever seen
on that floor. The game went IL
innings and never a second in all that
time did the players or the specta-
tors think of anything else but the
game A wonderful game that was
clean and fast in which the enthusi-
asm was deadened for time by a
bad accident that occurred to Mr..
Bruce of the Star-Bulletin when he
was struck an accidental blow over
the left eye by the bat leaving F.
Tyau's hands while he was trying to
connect with a fast one. The game
was temporarily stopped but con-
tinued as soon as Bruce regained con-
seriousness.
The Bulletin boys lost the toss ano
went to bat first, scoring four runs on
timely hits. Kakaako came back in
their half and made five runs and il
looked right then and there as if the
game would be a runaway for kaka-
ako, but Chung pulled himself togeth-
er and struck the last two men out.
In the second inning Tom Gum re.
tired in favor of Silva, Kakaako's reg
ular pitcher, and the Bulletin boys
scored another run, tying the score.
Kakaako failed to score in their half
Of the second, and neither team scored
again until the fifth, when the Bulle.
tin boys put two more runs over, and
Kakaako brought its followers to their
feet by coming right back in their
half of the inning and tying the score.
Neither team scored in the sixth, but
in the seventh the Bulletin boys put
another runner over the pan by
single, steal and two-base hit. In
their half of the same inning Kakaako
scored two. taking the lead to s.
In the eighth the Bulletin boys scored
two, and held Kakaako runless, the
score being 10 to 9 at the end Of the
eighth. Bulletin boys failed to score
in the first half of the ninth, while
by clever coaching and a fast play
with two out and two strikes on the
batter brought in the tying run
In the tenth both teams scored one,
while neither team scored in the elev-
enth. both pitchers striking out two
men and the other two being retired
at first on infeld hits The twelfth

Out at Moiliili field yesterday after
noon there was a game of baseball
This statement is more significant
than particulars of the game itself, Ia
light of the recent injunction restrain
ing the Venice Tigers from play:n4
any games in the territory except AT
Athletic park However, the Older
OF the supreme court, that CAUSE oe
shown why writ of prohibition
should not be issued, preventing the
circuit court from interfering with
the movements Of the visiting ball
players, was in effect yesterday, and
while the lawyers were arguing the
now famous baseball tangle in the
courts, the players were having an
other kind of argument on the dia-
mond.
In order to give local players a
chance to perform with some chance
of success, the Tigers were divided
between two teams, Honolulu players
forming the balance of the conbina-
ton. Local pitchers were given a
chance TO work with first class re-
ceivers, big Bill" Inman, formerly
Of the Punahous, but who now has a
San Francisco contract tucked away
in his trunk, pitching for the No. 2
team, while Tod" Sloan, the End In
fantry hurler, worked for the No. 1
outfit The brothers Bliss were be-
hind the plate, Big Brother Jack
catching Sloan, while Little Brother
Toots was given quite some exercise
trying to stop Inman's wild ones.
Catching must be the strong point of
the Bliss family, for Toots' work was
very good indeed. He stopped some
of Inman's extra bad ones that should
have been handled with q butterfly
net instead of mitt
Inman had a very bad day, four
bases on balls and couple of wild
pitches being chalked against him In
six innings. Lefty" Williams went
in in the seventh and retired the side
IN one-two-three order, with the as
sistance of a fine catch In left by
Lang Akana lnman got hitting sup
port and his team eventually came
through with the long end of the

kut not so good to the spikes yester-
day. The paths we're heavy, owing
to recent rains. and this slowed up
the game considerably. In fact, the
whole show was more in the nature
OF test case out of court than q
ball game. Owing to the fact that
up to the last minute there was some
uncertainty as to whether the game
would be played at all, the attendance
was small
Argabrite, Chillingworth, Lyman
and Sloan were the local players with
the Tiger Firsts. while the No. 2 out
ut included Akana, Sadtler, c. Moriya-
ma and Inman.

FEDERAL MIDDLE
MAY BE SETTLED
in CHI. TODAY

CHICAGO. - Charles Weeghman,
president of the Chicago Federal
League team, is the big man in base
ball today. Whether there is to be a
settlement of the war is almost en-
tirely up to him. The case is in his
hands and if he can swing his asso-
ciates into his way of thinking by
the time his organization has its reg
ular meeting November % the con-
troyersy will end on that date.
But il he has no success with his
members the dove of. peace will be
allowed to go on its way He is the
champion and fame awaits him in the
baseball world If he can solve the
problem for the men of the organized
ranks.
In the meantime Weeghman will be
hustling individual Negotiations
will go on with the magnates of his
league, and when he has them lined
up as he desires they will gather here
at the meeting and make their final
decision. OF course, it is not a sure
thing that he can induce the other
members to look upon the proposition
as he does, but he has confidence and
declared recently that It appeared as
If the war would be thing of the
past before Christmas. ~
Weeghman Wants Peace.
Those are Weeghman's views. He
wants peace, is anxious to get into
the ranks of organized ball by pur-
chasing the Cubs and Is doing all
within his power to bring about a
settlement. He knows that the ma
tional sport is not being benefited by
the war.
President Gilmore of the Federal
League is hoping that peace will be
arranged. but insists that his organi-
zation remain in the field. He says
it will and knows how it can be kept
there if the men of the National and
American will accept his suggestions.
He will not disclose them. He says
he knows what Weeghman is doing
and how he is striving to lasso the
olive branch, but he doubts If 1t will
be done. His views force one to be-
lieve that something else is on the
fire, but just what it is cannot be said
Weeahman to See Taft.
While the talk of peace goes on
Weeghman will continue his negotia-
tions with Charles P. Taft for the pur-
chase of the Cubs. The former had
an option on the club, but as it ex-
pired several days ago he renewed it
indefinitely. He will meet Taft with
in a week and he will know then just
what his chances are of getting the
club. He does not say it IL certlir
he will secure the franchise, but he
acknowledges it is likely to come
about
Gossip few days ago was he would
not be able to secure a grip OIL tie
team because of the lease The Chicago
National League team had on the
west side grounds. 1t was feared, OR
at least Weeghman feared, he you'll
have to assume the lease, but he has
learned that that would not be neccs-
sary and that if he bought tire Culs
he would take the whole outfit and
place it in his new plant on the north
side.
Gilmore Talks Of Leases.
President Gilmore insists that no
one can withdraw from the Federal
League without the consent OF TIE
majority of magnates. He declared
that the league holds the leases ON
all the parks in the organization and
that if a member jumps he cannot use
the park in which his team played
last season.
