ing end OF the combination.
The close scores of the last three
games do not represent the respec-
tive merits of the teams. In every de-
partment the Red Sox have indicated
potential strength which far out
shines that of the National league en-
tries Their pitching has been bet
ter, though Alexander, supported by
the Sox team, would be choice over
any Sox pitcher working in ,Phila-
delphia uniform.
The fielding, due mainly to the
startling performances of Jack Bar
ry, Duffy Lewis and Larry Gardner,
has surpassed the defensive doings Of
the Morans, and the batting is over
100 points above that of their rivals.
Some of the critics who were pam
ming HobHtzen took in their flags af-
ter yesterdays game. Hobby was
stamped as man in the grip of dead
ly fear But that certainly wasn't fair
to such an old campaigner. Yester-
day he punched three hits and fielded
his position sensationally.
When statistics and the more i'm
portant features that do not get into
the averages are cast up, Duffy Lewis
will be branded the real hero 'of this
dual combat for the worlds baseball
title.
The chunky left fielder of the Red
Sox has done everything that came
within his view and has gone out of
his way to perform some sensational
stunts. His defensive work in left
field has been magnificent. He made
one shoestring catch yesterday that
was a marvel, but it is in his judgment
of batters that he really has excelled.
The smart waIlops of Cravath have
gone for nothing because Lewis
guessed before the ball was hit where
it would descend, and set himself in
that position. He has moved forward
and backward as the prowess of the

1t last years MackIan host had
caught for the worlds series battles
such opponents as the Red Sox have
in the Phillies this fall there probably
would have been no four straight vic
tories for the National league.
The Macks, torn by dissension and
in the midst of slump, found team
in a rush and strictly on it's game
There can be only one answer when
such a thing occurs.
But this is something different
again. There is no denying the fact
that the Red Sox are in a batting
slump, taking the team from top to
bottom. Some few of the men are
pounding the ball with greater vigor
than they have ever known before,
but the main portion of the onslaught
is below normal
However, the Red Sox have caught
the Phils in one of the worst slumps
ever seen in a worlds series. The
hitting is the ightest ever known, and
no pitchers can win ball games when
their mates give them but one run to
work on.
Pitching stands out prominently in
the four games played to date. Each
has been strictly battle between the
hurlers, with the batters taking soft
smacks as a rule when runs are bios
soming on the bases.
A fair line on the mastodonic task
Philadelphia twirlers have faced can
be secured when it is recollected that
in only one game have the National
league batsmen given their pitcher
more than one run with which to win.
And their pitcher did win that odd
game, the first, when Alexander was
presented with three counters as a
margin.
In other contests the PhiIIy pitch
ers have limited the opposition to
two runs per battle, but this stellar
