He has too many good pitchers. Right
now there are half a dozen athletes
in the South Side gun division who
can pitch winning ball against the
class of batting displayed by the
American League. They don't always
win when they pitch winning ball, be-
cause their backing isn't stout.
Scott, Benz, Cicotte, Russell, Faber
and Jasper are all excellent pitchers.
They are the best sextet in either
league, and have kept the Sox in the
race to date. .
But with six pitchers in action. no
one of them gets enough work to
keep him in shape and at the top of
his game. The rest between battles
is too long, and the athletes grow
stale. Jasper has not been counted
regular, but the other five have been
worked in turn. Even one game in
five is not enough for many pitchers,
notably Reb Russell, who has ten
dency to take on weight, and needs
lots of exercise to keep in proper
condition.
The Texas southpaW in his last few
games has not much resembled the
star of 1913. But consider the diff
ference in the way he has worked.
Last season Russell did more work
than any other pitcher in the Amer
lean League. Besides pitching when
his own day came round he was used
as a rescuer when one of the regulars
faltered.
There was much comment at the
time to the effect that the strain was
too much for the Rebel and would
play him out But he is big, strong
fellow, and time has shown that the
frequent performances were what he
needed to keep his proper stuff.
This year Russell has been used
when his proper turn came. The res
cuing task has fallen on the other
members of the stats equally Rus
sell has done about half the work he

Callahan could call on one of the
bench warmers, substitute him for
the tottering one and give that ath-
lete a rest.
In this way there would always be
four able boxmen doing active duty
and two others ready to leap to the
rescue at the first sign of failing.
Batting among the Sox is increas-
ing, but the work of the pitchers has
not been appreciably ightened. The
batters are not hitting in sequence,
but if they continue to connect the
time is bound to come when they will
gather the swats in concert and
whale home the necessary runs.
If Connie Mack's team can go as it
did yesterday, strong pitching is not
needed. They gather their swats in
punches and keep whanging away
until the opposing pitchers crumble
before the persistent attack.
Twelve thousand fans saw yester-
days double-header between the Chi
feds and Baltimore. It was fine
crowd and helped the bank account
of the third league.
BUT THIS patronage VIII nor con-
tinue if there are many more violent
scenes such as characterized the first
battle, when seven Baltimoreans were
canned from the game for arguing
and offering to fight the umpires or
any member of the Chicago team.
Several of them had an uncontrol-
liable desire to take punch at Rollie
Zeider.
A good portion of the blame rests
on the players. But some of it should
be charged to the Indicator handlers.
The brand of umpiring in the Fed
eral League is not good. There are
three or four arbiters who know their
business, but the others do not seem
very accurate in guessing decisions,
allow the athletes too much freedom
and do not keep the pastime moving.
In the last respect there was some
