year ago.
James did not pitch so often as
Rudolph in the series solely because
he was a younger man with limited
experience to match the willy craft
of Stallings' shrewd veteran. When
1t came to a comparison of, natural
gifts there is no mparison. Rudolph
pitches with his head. his craft, his
control. James Is pitcher Of prod
igals gifts VINO can burn them over
the plate with sheer speed. Give him
the experience of his great teammate
and at the same age he should lead
the National League.
Born in California.
William James was born in Iowa
Hill, Cal. All his life save that spent
in baseball has been passed in Cal
tfornia. In winter he resides most
of the time at Oroville Hill, part or
the time in San francisco. He Is a
great hunter and fisherman, q gen.
uine lover of the open air. A typi-
cal athlete. he is born pitcher SO
far as build is concerned, and from
what he has already accomplished
In that line there is no doubt that
his vocation has been well chosen.
His first play for money was with
the Hammonton team managed by
Emmett Schotleld who used to be a
member Of the Seattle club. Through
the advice Of his manager, James
signed with Seattle while still In HIS
teens, though the influence Of his
family prevented him from report
ing till year after. They were set
against baseball, as they had quite a
different career in view for him. And
for a year their influence was strong
enough to- overcome the lure of the
diamond. In the end. however, bases
ball triumpned and James went to
Seattle. =
Made Good at First.
This was in 1912, and he had a
grand record on his first appearance.
Among other notable achievements
he won sixteen straight games. He
had remarkable speed, but, as he
himself admits, but little else.

Losing Thirteen Inning Game
Spoiled James's Chance of
Breaking Record.

The Boston Braves special issue OF
the Baseball Magazine has a great
story on Pitcher James:
Bill James. though at the age
when most players are lucky to be
fairly started proved himself last
year one Of The diamonds great nat
ural pitchers. With a superb build
for twirler. immense speed, great
strength and endurance, he blazed
his way to the front on sheer natural
ability. With the further acquisition
Of experience he should be one Of the
greatest all-round pitchers of history.
Some day he may yet break the pitch
ing record which he came so near
shattering in the season just past.
The batting of Hank Gowdy was
the feature Of the series. The pitch
ing of Rudolph was Its most con-
sistent performance. But the one
game contributed by long Bill james
was the most perfect piece of twirl-
ing skill! seen in a worlds series in
many day.
Had Good Season.
James needed no grand worlds
series send-off to bring his name be-
fore the public eye for he had just
completed one Of the best seasons a
pitcher ever. had. But there is no

In the 1914 Worlds Series
Which Nearly Lost the
Braves a Game.

y John Evers tells Il In the Baseball
Magazine just how he. made that bone
in the World Series:
II was approached by newspaper
men the same evening, says Evers.
land asked about the play and how
l1shappened. 70 make it. |. admitted
freely and frankly that it was d bone
and let 1t go at that. Ihaven't said
anything about 1T since. 1t was, q
Ibonehead play. There is no doubt
about that. but i don't think that
1t was as much Of a bonehead play as
| 1t seemed though may be prejudic-
led.
When that ball was hit to me i
was anxious to get 1t. / had my mind
on getting 1t Just as soon as possible,
for with three men on and the game
in extra innings any slip may mean
q score.
He Was too Anxious
NO doubt 1 was too anxious and
1t is no excuse IL I was. At any rate
that ball made a rather awkward
bound before It reached me and hit
me In the chest. 1t hurt some and
Disconnected me to that extent, al
Though am mot saying that was
an excuse for my playing 1t as i did.
When 1t struck me In the chest 1t
bounded away several feet and ]
made after It mechanically. But as
chased 1t the thought was in my
mind that the game was lost. II was
! sore to think / had let the ball get
.away from me like that on what
looked like 4 simple stop. / was sore
to think that through a-lack OF good
fielding onmy part the game was lost,
1--WE had fought so hard to win. That
was all. didn't think Of the men
on the bases. 1didn,t think of the
Ecrowd or the other players on the
team. It didn't even occur to me
that It made any difference whether
the Athletics scored one run or two
runs so long as they scored.
Thought Game Lost.
For felt that the game was lost,
and that 1t was my failure to field
my position as Iswould have liked to
field 1t that had lost Il. While I
was recovering the ball Schang was
scoring and Murphy going to third.
But seeing that + was in a trance
Murphy kept on to the plate. Now
became family aware that the other
players were yelling at me to throw

before he reached the plate. Z don't
