five hits and famed six for the en-

These performances make it ap-
pear that Carrigan~ has five pitchers
capable of starting a game on even
terms with Alexander. What they
may lack in natural skill when
stacked against the great Phil they
cancel because of the difference in
batting strength Of the two teams
And Alexander has not made his phe-
nomenaI record in a league which
boasts Cobb, Crawford, Jackson,
Collins, Speaker or Veach.
Alex is a marvel, but he won't out
class by any wide margin the pitch
ers Carrigan can send to the mound.
And Manager Bill has five of equal
worth, while Moran has only Alexan-
der, and no pitcher in baseball can
work three games in seven against
such team as the Red Sox and get
away with all of them.
Red Sox won both games from the
Yanks because of good pitching and
timely hitting.
