GIANTS PROBABLY
BIGGEST FAILURES
IN OLD LEAGUE
Without Little Hard Luck
Showing Is Poor Nc
Graw Blames Pitchers
(By George R. Holmes.)

United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Sept. If the Giants
finish anywhere but first place they
will probably go down as the biggest
failures of the weird season Of 1915.
The New York club is admittedly the
highest salaried one in the National
league, and mas the most "paper
strength" of any, with the possible ex-
ception of the Braves. Everything at
the start of the season was in their ia
vor, and Gotham fans settled back for
long season of battling between Nc
Grawfs clan and the Braves for the
pennant. On dope they were the only
ones who stood a show Of getting in
the October classic.
The teams are turning into the nome
stretch today, with the world s series
but five weeks away, and most of the
dopesters and bettors are scrambling
their brains trying to decide which to
lay their shekels on-Brooklyn or Phil
adelphia.
The Giants haven't had much hard
luek-as nard luck goes, accidents and
such. True they have mad bad luck,
but McGraw has won pennants in the
face Of far heavier odds that he has
mad to face this season. He had a
team of veterans last March that had
stood up under the fire and gaff of
many gruelling pennant races, and they
were all going good There were few
signs of cracks-Matnewso had had
one of his best seasons as had Tesreau.
The erratic Marquard had finished a
fair season, and according to the way
Rube has run since he broke into the
big show, he should have been due for
whale of a season in 1915. Backing
them up were Stroud, Scnupp and
Schauer trio of mighty likely looking
youngsters.
There was a hole at third base, a
gaping one left by Tilly Schafer s re-
tirement. McGraw went out and grab
bed Hans Lobert, who batted .275 with
the weak Phils the year before, and
was listed as one of the fastest men
on the bases in the Tener circuit. Lo-
bert has fallen down woefully with Ne
Graw's team. He is batting around
240 and his name ism even among
the first 10 base stealers. His fielding,
too, has slumped.
McGraw freely blames his pitchers,
and it seems he Is justified. Marquard,
the eccentric, hasn't won half his
games, Matty the steady, hasn' t won
half his games, Tesreau has barely
