TITLE
STILL IN BALANCE
Whether PhiIIies or Dodgers
Will Win Not to Be Known
Until Next Week.
GIANTS HAVE OUTSIDE,
MATHEMATICAL CHANCE
Nationals Will Fight Hard to Finish
in Select Company of the
First Division.
BY J. ED GRILLo.

There will be a double header today
in New York between the Braves and
Giants. A twin bill also will be held
White Sox clash. The Phillies and
BrookIyns, who played morning
game today, will meet again this aft
ernoon.
New York has three games to play
with the Braves. but will get in only
two more. The Phfllies and Dodgers,
however, will not miss any games. as
good weather is prevailing everywhere
today.
AS was predicted some time back,
the National League championship will
not be decided until next week. when
the Giants play four games with
Brookayn, while tho Braves hook up
with the Phillies at Philadefphia for
six games. This gives the Giants
mathematical chance to win tho PEN
nant. If they can win their remaining
six games and the Braves take a fall
out of the Phillies the Giants can finish
first.
There is a chance for the Nationals
to finish In the first division. Both
New York and ST. Louis are but six
points ahead of the Griffmen, and Bos-
ton is pretty sure to again beat the
Yankees today, though II is no cinch
that the Griffmen will be able to win
two from the Mackmen, for Mack will
have two of his best pitchers on the
mound. Seibold and johnson both have
pitched good ball, the former having
held ST. Louis to three hits, when he
shut them out last Sunday, while the
latter always is dangerous opponent;
Detroit beat St. Louis yesterday, and
the Tigers are likely to make a clean
sweep of that series. In this case. II
the Griffmen clean up with the Mack
men and take two of the three games
from the Yankees when they play
there Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
day, they should finish in the first
division.
The Nationals will play an exhibition
game at Jersey City tomorrow. The
game has been well advertised. and a
big crowd is expected
Cleveland and Chicago, which teams
were prevented by rain from playing
either Thursday or Friday, will be
