MARQUARD LOSES HIS
18th STRAIGHT GAME
Stalling's Boys Maintain Their
Sensational Gait, Winning
With One Fat Inning
BY HAL SHERIDAN

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-The Bos-
ton Braves are now pointed for a
head-on collision with the Athletics
in the big tusstle which will open on
or about Oct 10. They haven't the
job OF standing up before the guns
OF Baker, Collins, McInnes and few
others absolutely cinched yet, but
something terrible must happen II
they fail to make their cut-in on the
worlds series swag.
AT the Polo grounds there appears
to be a fair assortment or bats,
gloves, a playing field and grand
stand, but little else when IL comes
down to considering possibilities OF
the Giants unhorsing the Braves from
the four-game lead they now have in
the dash toward the National league
flag
RUDE Marquard started against the
Cubs yesterday, and, aided by his
teammates. disappointed no one. He
was consistent and when the shadows
began to fall was credited with his
eleventh straight defeat. Fromme
relieved Marquard In the third inning,
and when the former Red gave way
to pinch-hitter In the seventh, the
veteran Hooks" Wiltse went the
final two rounds without being killed
by Zimmerman or Archer.
The Giants could do nothing with
Vaughn and errors by Doyle and
Grant, together with Merkle's over
running OF roller from Goods bat,
helped along the Cubs. Goods tap
went for double.
In the meantime, the Braves main
tanned the gait they have shown since
July, the gait including the operation
OF grabbing each series that appears
on the schedule. They downed the
Pirates again, picking the fourth
inning as the one in which they
chose to make the big smash and put
owe renough runs to win
Rudolph was a little shaky, and
the Pirates came within one Of knot
ting the score later. But they didn't
tie things up. and the six runs scored
by Boston In the first four innings
were enough to win, which was the
general result sought by Stallings, as
he slid up and down the bench.

Brain Work of Chiefs and Willingness of
YOUNGSTERS to Learn Puts Boston In Lead
BIZ HUGH s. FULLERTON.


When a team. individually weak
inexperienced and strong only In two
or three departments. plays the best
baseball In its circuit and through
season shows the finest defensive
work, when its pitching stan, al
though inexperienced. reveals more
inside knowledge" OF opposing bat
ters than any other, when a rather IN
different catching stan "guesses the
intention OF batters and base runners
more frequently than do older mem
there Is reason!
The Boston Braves. now the ac
knowledged sensation OF the year,
has done and Is doing all these
things.
The secret OF their success lies In
the brain work OF George Stallings
and Johnny Evers, and the willing
ness OF the youngsters TO do as their
leaders advise.
II would surprise many to discover
that the Braves know more about the
players on opposing teams than any
team In the league knows. Ii may
be a surprise to find that the Braves
keep better posted I'm regard to. the
condition OF opposing pitchers, and
that they know better how opponents
are hitting and what style OF ball
they are playing than the other teams
do.
IL isn't so much brain work as the
application Of common sense business
methods OF baseball. Their business
Is baseball and they attend to It. A
lot OF the wise critics think the
Braves will break because OF the in
experience OF some OF the men,. TIL
wager today that Gowdy, Schmidt.
Mann. Gilbert, Crutcher. Rudolph and
other youngsters know more about the
players of the National league than
Zimmerman, Snodgrass, Bescher. or
any OF q dozen veterans know.
Listen. A major league ball club
plays another team six series year.
They see the other teams roughly
every three weeks. Between the
series most Of them forget that team,
pay attention to others. and do not
know what that team Is doing. Not
so with the Braves. They study
teams. Evers had the system when
he was with the Chicago Cubs, and
Stallirgs, / think, has had II for years.
They have taught II to the youngsters.
Every day Stallings and Evers get
newspapers containing detailed ac-
counts of all National league games
They not only see what ball player
hit, what direction he hit 1t, but OBJ
serve whether certain players are
running bases, trying the hit-andrun,
or how they are playing.
Every morning meeting Is held.
At that meeting the players discuss
not only the team they are to meet
