as to which shall field the ball, both
runners will score, AS they did in Chi
.cago.
Herzog, with the Reds, is prevent
ing miXups on balls thrown toward the
plate when a runner is trying to score.
Herzog knows that not one pitcher in
ten knows whether to let the ball go
on to the plate to try to catch the
runner or catch the ball and shoot
back to secOn to catch the batter who
will attempt to take an extra base on
the throw home. Therefore, he makes
all his pitchers go back of the catch
er when a hit is made, and Hoblitzell
comes to the middle of the diamond
and handles all balls or decides to let
them go.
Some New Stuff.
Meanwhile and Evers are playing a
lot Of new stuff around second. The
chief improvement is in M~aranvillc's
change Of style Of passing balls, in
force-outs and in starring double plays.
He used to snap the ball at the sec
Ond baseman, which is risky when the
baseman is running at top speed to-
ward him. Now he scoops 1t, getting a
fraction of a second more speed and
taking infinitely less risk Of causing
a muff.

Oumont and Maupin
Lost to the Locals

The Fargo-Moorhead FAM will regret
che shift of its two star twirlers as
predicted by J. H. Richie in The Min
neapolis Journal. 1t Is also probable
that Murphy will be taken to Minnea-
polls, and tina another catcher and a
pair of pitchers will be sent to the To-
cal team. Richie says:
Pres. NJ. E. Cantillon returned to
Minneapolis after a brief sojourn in
Milwaukee. He says he did not have
time to talk or think baseball while
away, but that he will now turn his
attention to getting the material with
which to brace the Millers.
Garry Hermann has been called up
on to come through with the men prom
ised in the Killifer deal. Word is ex-
pected from him today, and ines are
out for other players in other direc-
lions. President Michael is also turn
ing his attention toward the Northern
league, and as he has the Fargo club
under his wing, is looking over the
talent in that loop rather carefully.
There are two good looking pitchers
in the Fargo club who will most likely
be brought to Minneapolis. They are

these youngsters has attracted the at

The decision of the Cantillon

siderable favorable comment. The
game will enable the commercial clubs
Of Fargo and MOOrhead to more
