We can look at the Cubs-Pitts-
burgh score sheet of Monday and sigh
at the number of errors sprung be-
tween the two teams. There was
some tall slipping and the butter fin
ger plays hurt both sides.
And after we sight over our own
West Side ballplayers we can go fur
Their and glance at the whole Nation
al league and then groan. The six
teams that played ball, or at ball, yes
terday managed to pile up seventeen
errors.
We must give Cincinnati and St.
Louis credit for not making any
slips of any kind. They didn't play.
Maybe it is just as well, for Monday
must have been jonah day for the
Nationals.
At that, the Federal league takes
first money for. number of what we
might call bad plays. While the
league already mentioned was piling
up errors into the double figure col
umn, the Fed crews, eight of them,
tailed an even twenty slips. The diff
ference, they can explain, is because
two of the National teams were off
duty while all the Federal mines were
on the job.
Boston and New York, in the Amer
lean league, had six errors between
them. If the other six teams had
played-well, anyway, Monday was
Baseball Error day.
Thirty-three errors for sixteen
teams!
The Cubs should have taken their
Monday Pittsburgh game with ease.
While all the Cub pitchers were
touched freely, the Bresnahan crew
