Suc$s We both thought the same thing.
Nc wished that We could set into
Nri&'& series sometime and have IN:
,ca,r nehind It's make live or six runs
tHr Us Wcll l guess III never spin one
over m another wortdS series.
The neNt most impressiE" thing

S:ilur. fuulirE III" he'd SuN with th;L;
old SLOW ball OF his. SO SLOW YOU could
walk beside IL from the pitchers BOX
bali IL all he WAS using. lie WAS also
employing his head i wise old pitcher.
Others would bc better OFF II ihcy adopt
81 the same methods. Sitting next me

HIS Last Appearance.
old Nap wor" the big league SPAN
SEES in the pitcher : box tor the last
time today unless h. should finish uu;
The battle tomorrow. Old Nap has last
cd three or four wears III the lcaGu"
without his faS; bail and III his prime
he carried as good fast one as any

hook so he WAS Il, ;hcrc slow halling

when Brooklyn h&1i.a grand chahce TO

first bal pitched h!n ior 4 triple. Two
runs had dressed II" I.ate and Nheat

Mowr-y a. h2;. he ;r:cG the hit and run
play with Cul>haw. bur Nike failed to
connect with the ball. leaving CltShaw
on the route fer second case that was
what CutShitw should hav" done. but
Wheat did not come into tn: play at all
and should simply have looked our for
himself.
Wheat BluEed Self.
Carrigan made Il short throw aul
Wheat made a bluff start for home. but
the only person he b!,:ifcd was himself.
He should never have been caught there
and Il upset the w.:Uir rally. OF course.
Momre$' Tanned afr that but he might
20: have done il il Wheat ;Iad not been
caught because hc would have been
pitched - differently and i woGld
have brought Olson Up. That play seem

Carrigar Shrewd.

himself for n" frs; tin" in IN" series.
and hs handled Leonard granIly. he

suits. However. another :naua ger. MGR.
TanickE. might have lost faith in Lon
ard wh"n III. Dodgers were making
black and blue spots on him With their
hits. But Bill Was handlin. him. and
he brought MIN around.
There was Il good deaf ~ ki"ning
by til: crowd 4, III" uupir"S today bur
the press boxes 1t both ball parks where
this series is being played IS 50 located
wrong. Boston is even worse than
Brooklyn So | won't try - criticize. the
umpireS. | would hate TO be- regular
reporter and havs 10 cover games from
that altitude daily.
THE. Rrook'- II clUb looked bad in
spots. Myers let Chracy 20 get Il b,;nt
today when he could have reached the
ball in about TWO steps. Cheney had
20 hurry 1t so he hit Hohl;zcl il th"
Jack and tho runner was SAFE.
