Ty Cobb ingloriously muffed Chap
mans high fly in the first inning, thus
making an error on his first fielding
chance of the year. Chapman took sec

the way for Cleveland's run in the
sixth, while Coveleskie's muff Of II

But Pennock, q young southpaW,
stopped them most effectively, thus
showing once more that the Red Sox
are a weak team when faced by a
competent left-hander. and that sort OF
a team Is never apt to have easy sail
ing through a championship race.
Incidentally 1t seems certain that
Connie Mack will have at least three
or four young pitchers this season who
will be troublesome. Bush. Wyckon
and Pennock already have shown form
and the best judges have always o pre- :
southpaw, will be one Of the sensa-
tional performers of the league.
So, with Frank Baker almost sure to
return to the fold. the teams which
have pennant hopes may still have to
reckon with Old Man Mack.
And that defeat which tho Cleveland
Indians inflicted on the Tigers must
also have been a bitter pill to swallow.
Don't be surprised II that Cleveland
team puts UP a strong game this year.
Birmingham has improved his forces
considerably. He picked up several
very promising young players last fall
and according to training camp reports
they have ali shown a lot of improve
