BRESSLER VS.. FOSTER
IN TODAY'S MACK-SOX
GAME; BUSH'S OFF DAY
Shawkey Probably Saved
for Opener With Yankees
Tomorrow oe Bus h,
md Wyckoff Pitched
Poor Ball Yesterday.

When the Athletics and Red sox begin
today's clash at shibe Park to decide the
present series 1t is probable Carrigan will
have Foster or Ruth on the mound, while
Connie Mack is almost certain to start
Rube Bressler, in view of the fact tnat
his southpaws have always been effective
against the Boston club. e.
MaclS's plan seems to be to save Bob
Shawkey for the opening game with the
New York Yankees tomorrow, which
means that he must depend upon Bressler
to take the third and deciding contest
OF the series. Wilbur Davis may have
a cnance to work in the Yankee series,
but not against the Red SoX.
With the Red SoX doped out as the
pcnnaut winners of the American League
this season by the majority of fans and
sports writer's. the natural thing for Mack
TO do IL TO capture every game possible
from his super-cultured opponents.
Losing yesterday by the score of to
3 evened up the Red Sox series with the
Athletics, and, as only three games are
to ho played on this occasion, today's
affair will be the deciding issues. The
second game, that staged yesterday, was
the direct antithesis of that played ON
Wednesday. on the occasion of the first
meeting of the Athletics and Red Sox the
pitching Of Pennock and his rival, Shore,
was superb. Yesterday the hurllng was
worse than mediocre.
Joe Bush, who began for the Athletics,
did not get warmed up to his task at all.
Nearly every man who faced Bush had
three balls pitched TO him, hence tho next
would either result in pass or base
hit.
This wldness on Bush's part caused his
removal from the game after he had
passed two men in the fifth Before that
period of the pastiming the Red Sox had
scored two runs while the Athletics had
not been able to negotiate with the plate.
with Ray Collins pitching almost perfect
baseball.
After Bush's dethronement, John Well
don Wyckof (owner of the Williamsport
TaXicab Company, strolled to the firing
line. Weldon got out of the hole left him
by Bush in the fifth, but the Red Sox
began to get next to him in the sixth. In
the seventh Weldon, whose alias is
scoop" was lucky to get away with
only one run scored off him. A pass and
three hits represented the offensive move
ments in that session.
Wyckoff appeared in the eighth as
though he had found himself, but he
spoiled everything in the ninth after two
men were down by walking iris Speaker.
A hit followed which put Speaker on
third. The pair of runners started a
double steal, and McAvoy used poor
, judgment i'm pegging to second when
neither Lajoie nor Barry was playing
in for the short throw. The result was
that Speaker counted and the old game
was gone. Another run followed on
Hoblitzels hit, but the one by Speaker
was enough, for the Macks could do
nothing with Mays in their half of the
last frame
