Several Surprises.
YANKS AND REDS
COMING STRONG
Even Cleveland, Inspired by
Speakers Presence, Begins
to Show Strength.

The end Of the second week Of the
1916 baseball season finds the teams OF
the National and American leagues
fighting hard for positions in the race.
In the American League the pennant
chase is tightening In the National
League Philadelphia has moved into q
comanding position in first place.
The National League champions,

Cravath and Nichof and steady pitch
ing. went undefeatcd during the week.
Alexander and Demarec showed good
form ir the box against Boston and
New York respectively.
Cincinnati played good baseball both
at bat and in the field. The Reds won
two games and lost three. Hal Chase
seems TO have added great strength to
Herzog's club On Tuesday he beat
Pittsburgh with a home run in the
tenth inning.
Boston played rather lstlessly and
its pitchers did not appear TO be in
good form.
Chicago gave the best exhibition in
the Western contingent OF the National
League and by heavy hitting main
tained a wining streak. The Cubs
fielding also improved. The pitching
was better. Mcconnell holding Pitts
burgh 20 one hit yesterday.
Pittsburgh showed little improve

mon held ST. Louis TO two hits on Fri
day
The Cardinals displayed improved
form and moved 20 a good position in
the first division by beating the Reds

Brooklyn. which pressed the leaders
hard in 1915, has been unable 10 get
started. The pitching has beeen er-
ratio and Robinson has had trouble
with his infeld.
The Giants were not able 10 win
game during the week and are now IN
last place. Manager McGraw's team
apparently has not yet struck its
stride.
In the American League.
The American League was not af-
