Will Be the Best in
the League
BY CHANDLER d. RICHTER
ARTICLE VII

OINCINNATI Is the dark horse of the
~ National League race. II Is a team
with such a powerful pitching staff that It
is bound to be dangerous II Manager
Herzog can do three things.
He must not lose sight of the fact that
the pennant race Is a six-month affair in
stead of a few weeks. BY this we mean
that he should not work his pitchers to
death In the early stages of the race or
throw away two stars in one afternoon
trying to save n game which Is almost
hopelessly lost. Among other managers
who have made this mistake and spoiled
n good pitching staff is Charley Doom,
with the Phillies in 1913.
Last season Herzog worked Toney,
Schneider and Dale unusually hard for
long stretch OverworS took away much
of their effectiveness in the closing weeks
of the season, but the fighting leader OF
the Reds was compelled to do this because
Rube Benton and Phil Douglas refused to
keep in condition, and were finally cut
adrft.
Herzog's two other tasks are TO instill
into his men his own wonderful spirit,
and to fill second base in capable man
ner. If Herzog accomplishes these three
tasks the Reds are likely to surprise the
country as 1t is a far stronger team
than It is generally credited with being.
Pitching Staff Powerful
Pitching is more than half the battle.
and the powerful trio of Toney Schneider
and Dale will be strengthened wonder
fully by the addition of Mckenery,
Northwestern League recruit who pitched
grand ball for Herzog during the last six
weeks of the 1915 season; Heinie Schula,
a star lefthander who will fill long-felt
want; Mosey, another Federal Lacquer,
~, ri hall hn
handler from Denver.
Herzog needs but two running mates
for Toney, Dale and Schneider to have
the most powerful hurting corps In the
National League-one that Is superior TO
that of the Braves 1t will not be as pow
erful in numbers as the Boston STAFF, but
will be better suited for tho pennant grind.
Apparently Schulz and Mitchell are the
men most needed and who will fit in per-
fectly with the balance of the staff. Ben
ton was the only southpaw on Herzog's
pay roll last season. and after he went to
pieces the Reds did not even have left
handler TO pitch to the men in batting prac-
tice from July until September. when
Lefty" George was signed
If Herzog had gotten a good southpaw
at the time he advanced within five games
of first place with six weeks remaining
in the pennant race, he may have caused
trouble. The absence of n southpaw
worked against the Reds three ways. 1t
forced Herzog to overwork his three stars;
II threw away an opportunity to clinch
games against teams which do not hit
left.handers, and made the Reds weak
against southpaw pitching because they
never had an opportunity to practice
against good portsiders.
Southpaws Beat Reds
On the Reds second trip East when the
team was going at it's best, five games
were lost to southpaw pitchers. Tyler
beat them twice in one series in Boston,

Bat Nelson "I'OO Far Gone"

APPLETON, Wis, Feb. go
The State Boxing Commission has
ruled that Battling Nelson is "too
far gone" to box Ad Wolgast, to
whom he lost the lightweight cham
pionship. They had been matched
to box here April IL.
A few months ago Ad Wolgast
was badly beaten by Leach Cross
in New York. 1t was the general
belief at the time that Wolgast, the
conqueror of Nelson, was through
and done.
Now comes the information that
Nelson is "too far gone" for even

and Rucker Marquard and Rixey beat
them in Brooklyn, New York and here.
If three of these games had been con-
verted into victories, the Reds would have
been even closer to the top after the sue
cessful home stand which followed this
disastrous Eastern invasion.
Schulz's ability is we'll known He was
a star with the Yankees and should be
even better with the Reds. Mitchell holds
unique record. After having been
drafted for $500, two major league clubs
offered $4,000 for his release before he
has pitched single game for the Reds.
This unusual condition was brought
about by the youngsters wonderful work
with the All-Nationals on the barn
stormng trip to the Pacific coast last
fall. Mitchell was picked up in Denver
and taken along by Frank Bancfort to
fill in. He had not been with the ALL
Nationals two days before it was learned
that he was a remarkable youngster.
During the balance of the trip he
worked regularly and lost but one game.
In San Francisco he shut the ALL
Americans out with one hit and struck
out IA men. In his other games also his
work was n revelation, which makes 1t
appear as If Herzog had picked up a
great pitcher. Herzog has never seen
Mitchell but has heard such glowing re-
ports of his work from veteran players
that he has already placed him as a
regular.
