Bresnahan's w ords
PROVE Prophetic

LOW prophetic the words of
Roger Bresnahan! Last
spring, on his first call to New
York, Roger headed the National
League procession with his Cubs.
The Giants were in the ruck.
"You can't fool me-" said
Roger. "The team I have to beat
out in this race is that of Nc
Graw."
Roger never made a more
truthful statement. He has to
beat out the Giants to keep from
the cellar. Instead of the Giants
climbing up to the Cubs, the
Cubs tumbled down almost to the
New York level. That tumble is
the only n involved in the case.
Certainly the fans are giving
neither the Cubs nor Giants a
tumble just now.

contest, with Benton pitching a fine game
and being we'll handled by Kocher. the
new catcher. The Rube took his signs
from Kocher and the discrimination
shown in purveying stun. up to the
different Chicago batters was such that
their bats were of little aid to them.
Benton was up TO three balls often. but
he never gave the fourth one. and he
was s~teadiness itself after having gone
the limit in working the home hitters.
James Lavender made New York runs
s'arce. but mis- pitching didn't carry
the sustained excellence Of Benton's.
Lavender beat his own club by giving
two passes in the third inning. one
pass to Grant, the other to Burns. and
Davey Robertson. the juggerniut hitter,
clinched the combat for the Giants by
shooting a two Dagger along the right
foul line. There were two strikes on
Dave and Lavender had him reaching

berome overconfidert, for he put up
one which suited Dawes fancy u the

Schulte's single and steal and a single
by phelan which took a whimsical hop
over DONlr's head corraled the only run
on Benton. This was in the first. There
were two out at the time and Phelan's
hit was a pure scratch. At no time
were there two Cubs on bases at once,
