RECORDS Of TWO
LEADERS alike
In Runs Batted In and Tai
lies Presented, Giants and
Braves Little Different
McGRAWITES LITTLE
AHEAD IN ATTACKING

NEW YORK, Aug. 2O.-There is
mighty little difference in the
strength of the Giants and the Braves
If the runs batted in and runs let
in records of the two teams are taken
as a criterion. These figures show
the MeGrawites to have a little on
the staliingsites in attacking power
and the Hub club to be a mite super
ior to the Gotham team in defensive
play.
The Giants, up to Sunday, had bat
ted In 3S7 runs, the Braves to the
same date. 357 Contrariwise, Nc
Graw's athletes had presented the op-
position with 40 tallies on errors,
wild pitches, bases on balls, hit bats
men or passed balls and Stalling
pastimers had given the enemy AZ.
New Yorks three timeliest hitters
are Doyle, Fletcher and Meyers, this
trio having batted in 1876 tallies. .Bos-
tons best batsmen when counters arc
In sight are Smith and Maranville.
They have hammered home l29
markers.
The weak spot on the New York
team in defensive play is behind the
bat Chief" Meyers has given his
adversaries fourteen runs this year
thirteen through errors and one on a
passed ball incidentally, no other
National League backstop has done
as poorly as McGraw's good Indian.
These figures show the number Of
runs batted I'm and let in by the
Giants and Braves this season.
