A few games carefully dissected and
observed brings the conclusion of Not
a chance
There is absolutely nothing wrong
with the conduct of the athletes. They
are nice lot of fellows and well be-
hayed, but one cannot help but fear
that they are getting accustomed to be-
ing beaten. and that would indeed be
calamity. One or two of them take it
to heart when they are beaten, but
there is another element which feels
confident that better days are coming
though there is nothing to indicate that
this is so.
Ray Morgan was moved up into the
cleanup hitters position today, and
he had two opportunities to make good,
hitting well at that. but it just shows
the luck of things when a team gets in
one of these slumps.
Detroit about 1 o'clock Sunday after
noon. They will, in the meantime, be
travelling many miles. Johnson is slat-
ed to work against the Tigers. but
there is never any telling. Griffith may
change his mind and use one of the
other pitchers.
There was time when the Ma
tionals could be numbered among the
good base running teams. Moeller and
Milan and one or two others were apt
to pilfer every now and then and the
team was rated as fast on the ba ses.
That was in former years: this season,
at least to date. there have been de-
cidedly few bases stolen. Furthermore,
the team has gotten into a rut of
never varying its play. 1t is the old
straightaway army game. though
precedent was established today when
Gandil squeezed Shanks home in the
sixth inning.
Such thing as bunting on some slow
fielding pitcher. or left-hander drag

when the old fashioned way OF slug

At no time since Griffith has had
charge of the team has it played such
miserable ball as on the present trip.
Its greatest falling appears to be lack
of pepper and spirit. 1t goes through
a game with the players apparently
thinking of something else, is not hit
ting enough to keep itself warm. and
is actually displaying stupidity in much
of it's work, while it's speed is that of
a coal cart.
Milan seems to have changed most
remarkably in this respect. Heretofore
it was seldom that he was doubled up
on grounder hit to the infield. Now
it is a regular occurrence. 1t happened
again today, when, in the first inning,
with Moeller on first, he hit to Barry,
and a double play resulted. though for
merly Milan would have been over the
bag safe on such play.
He hit into another double in the
third, but that was not his fault. for,
with Moeller on second, he drove
liner right at Barry, and, OF course,
Moeller could not get back in time.
The only member of the team who
seems to be full of life is Nick Altrock.
and unfortunately he only ados WORDS
to help his team along.
Just what may happen to the Grill
men when they get out west, Where
they will be asked to meet some real
ball teams, makes one shudder to
think; judged on wnat i me me-. team am
couraeins is that there is no improve
ment: in fact. the combination is going
from bad to worse. Grimth is making
frantic efforts to remedy matters by
changing his batting order. but this
does not seem to solve the problem. for
most of the players are just as incapa-
BILE of hitting in one position as the
other.
The pitching has been of the best. and
would. perhaps. have been even more
effective if johnson were not given
these ridiculously long lay-offs.
There were many base ball experts
throughout the circuit who saw in
Griffith's team possible pennant win
ner They judged the aggregation on
paper. and evidently never saw it in
action this spring. No such idea could
possibly he fostered after watching the
Griffmen in the games to date. and
they have not played anywhere near
as good ball on the road as they did
during the early games at home. OF
