 MAN FOR GROOMING ONE FOR SLUGGER

''What a. boob he was to give that guy one in the groove How often have you heard that expression at a baseball game2
 Almost every time "Gavvy'' Cra- vath, the champion home-run clouter of the major league. lands one into the bleachers or over the rightfe1d fence some one in the crowd is sure to say Serves him right for 'groovin' the ball!" They used to say it about J.. league ttHome-Run King retired to past1ming in a county league.
 From the time the Trappe, Md, farmer broke into major league base ball from the Reading TH-State league team and his batting eye was brightened by what he picked up az a member of the Athletics, every player on the other seven clubs in the Aneican league and the New York Giants in the National league, who met Baker in two worlds series, tried to find out Bakers weakness. Some pitchers thought they knew 1t and every time oue of them famed the covered what Baker couldn't hit: But Baker continued to hit home runs just the same.
 It is the same with CEavath of the Fhi1lies, Vic Saler of the Chicago Cubs, Larry Doyle of the New York Giants, Sherwood Magee of the Bos- ton Braves and a few more. of the these heavy h1tters have a weakness tha tis known to one or more pitch CTS in the National league.

 Finding a ba&ter's weakness is one of the fine points of baseball these days. It is a. part of what Is called inside baseball" and it is a most i'm portant factor in the system of plaS that is usually followed, by a,Nwinnine team.

 Of course, the pitcher cannot al. ways get the ball just where he wants it, even when he knows where i, should go to prevent the batter from hitting it. This is where contro counts.

JACK MURRAY GETS RELEASE
 FROM GIANTS

New York; July s.-Jack Murray, the veteran right fielder of the Giants, was internationally released last night by the New York club. The club asked for waivers on him some time ago, but none of the other clubs put in a claim for him. For the past few seasons. Murray has not played up to the high standard he showed with the Giants for so many seasons.
 Murray played with Notre Dame University and went to the St. Louis Cardinals from college in 1906- He played there for three seasons and came to the Giants in a trade. Under Manager McGraw he became one of the fastest base runners in the Ma tiona1 1eag71e. Murray, in 1909, led the National league base runners and made a big reputation as a long hitter. Even ito the present season, Murray has been brilliant fielder and has one of the best throwing arms among out deldars-
 As Murray has been in the major leagues more than ten years, he IS en- titled to his unconditional release. On account of the new twenty player limit, the Giants will be compelled rO make room for the youngsters.

 4899Frank Erne defeated Kid. Lavigne in 20 rounds at Buffalo. By this victory Erne the former Buffalo bowling alley pin boy, became the lightweight champion of the world. Erne, a native of Switzerland, first took up boxing while employed at the old Buffalo A. C., and the lad soon proved thatshe had the maktngs of a great boxer His Buffalo bouts with George Siddoa1s and Solay Smith in 1894 gave him a wj1E1e reputation, and. after meeting some Of the best feath- erweights Of the period. he went after the lightweight title. Kid Layigne. the little French Canadian champion, had been travelling a hot pace, and when Erne first fought him at Coney Island in 1898 the Kid was far from being in gooea. shape. Erne got d draw, all though with a little more aggresstve- ness he could have won them Frank defeated Joe Cans in 1900, but in 1902. at Fort Erie, the cu11ud boy knocked him out and took his title away from him with a. single blow.

 Keep 1t high on the inside was Matty's advice to Rube.- In the next game, with Mathewson pitching, Bak- ger hit another homer, and after the Athletics had won hat game Mathew son was asked what kind of a ball he pitched to J. Franklin. He said, ders and on the inside corner of the plate. but must have slipped it right through the groove to him. The same old alfbt has been given hun dFeds Of times and will be given again So long as~the sIuggers continue to slug the ball and the pitchers continue to try for the batter's weakness
 There were heavy hitters in the o4den days and it is likely that same of the old timers had weakness, D but the players and managers did not think so much of the inside game in those days and there was little eff fort made to learn if a player who was known to be a. sIugger had such 6 thing as a batting weakness con cea1ed about his system. If the great Ed DeIehanty of the PhiIlies had a weakness no one ever found 1t, for Big Ed'' was still s1ugging the best pitchers Tp until the time he jumped from the Phillies to the American league, where he was play ing when he died.

Coo1nbs beat Mat- ty in Ii innings, 3 to 2 NS
 It WAS, as in the worlds Series, a hard, close pitching battle; but Matty was the first to crack. Grinnly CoornEbS pitched Brooklyn to victory by score of to 0. The Dodgers disrupted Mathewson's service violently in the eighth inning and left no doubt about the result

Coombs, disabled in that year, has had a. long Fest Baseball sharps said that his pitching days were over. But CoombB with the Brool1lyns this sea- son, has shown that he has much of lnAs cunning and strength left. There vas no doubt about 1t after yester- days game.
