BRAVES ||I'|' :' DOWN ] IN
 GIANTS BY FINE
 RALLY IN HATH

New York. April 21-Before crowd of more than 10000 spectators the Giants lost their opening battle of the season to the Boston Braves at tho Polo Grounds yesterday, but they went down inTs lighting finish.
 1t took the warriors of Stallings A innings to drive their way to victory by g. score of 4 to 2. Only a great stop by Edward Konetchy, the big Bohemian first baseman of the Braves, of Robertson,s savage smash down the right field line kept the Giants, after two men were out, from tying the score in that final frame
 Any If inning contest is full of fea- lures, but this one was overcrowded with them, If this was novel in- stead of the story of a baseball con- dict, several chapters might prof1tably { be devoted to the fielding of Maran- vile and Fletcher, the opposite short stops, who time and again made plays that, bordered on the supernatural. Considerable space might also be de- voAed to thf hitting of George Burns, who clouted the ball savagely. There was one incident, however, which stood out above all the rest and of " complete description.
 Don Carlos Patrick Ragan made home run. This feat probably will be treasured in the archives of the Ragan family for untold generations. Last year the eminent Spanish grandee had a great season at the bat. He made two doubles and one triple, but it is probable that never in his widest 1,o yici0 hifoS a q striking a blow that would be good for four bases.
 In the eight innings that Tesreau pitched he permitted but four hits, and 1t was his misfortune that one of them was a home run and another triple. His retirement from the game only preceded that of Ragan by short time, as Chappelle was sent in to strike out for the latter in the tenth.
 The moundsmen who then took up che burden were Nehf for Boston and George Smith. the Gem of Columbia, for Newg York. They continued the pitchersss battle, and it was not until the Fourteenth inning that either team was again able to get a runner across the plate.
 In the fourteenth. inning, however, Boston got to Smith. Massey singled and so did Collins, who batted for Bailey. Magee moved both men along with a sacrifice. A pass to Konetchy filled the bases. Smith hit to Zim- merman, who made a beautiful play in getting Massey at the plate. With twp men out it looked as if the dan ger work was over, but Kelley drove one to left and George Burns fumbled it, Collins and Konetchy scoring.

SEEN AND HEARD FROMTHE INSIDE

The Cincinnati Reds may not be excelling in victories but they are breaking records for getting the few est runs from the largest number of hits. Last Thursday they got 13 hits and only one run. Yesterday in a game against St. Louis they made four singles a triple, a double and a pass, yet gathered only five runs.
 Nap Lajoie is playing great ball for Toronto. The fact that he is manager of the club does not appear to hurt Lajoie's playing. He made a home run and single against Balti more yesterday.
 Eastern league players who went up to the big leagues this season and have remained so far are, Inf1elder Gleason of Lynn, now with the Pir- ates; Pitcher Burning of Portland, with Brooklyn; Pitcher Pennington of Lawrence, with the St. Louis Browns and Pitcher Fortune of New London with the Phillies.
 Here's a new way to win a Mara thon. A. F. Merchant of Boston, who competed in the American Mara thon on Thursday, took a ride on an automobile and covered two miles of the course that way. He was dis covered by the referee and disquali- fled.
 Manager McCann of New London may have some trouble in getting Pitcher Dick McCabe from the Red Sox. It is said that Buffalo of the International league, has secured the former Bridgeport hurler.
 Clyde Geist, the former Hartford pitcher, is finding Texas league too fast for him. He has not been able to last nine innings since he joined Fort Worth.

MARQUARD'S REAL NAME lE MARQUIS

Rube Marquard, the Dodger twirl- CT, is twenty-eight today. Rube start ed life in Cleveland under the high sounding name of Richard W. Le Mar quis. He had hard time breaking into the game. In 1908 he was given a trial by Waterloo, Ia., but wasn't good enough. The next year Indiana polls gave him the once-over, and shipped him off to Canton, o. Rube was recalled by the Hoosiers in 1908, and after winning twenty-eight games was sold to McGraw for $11,- 900.
 Everybody knows what hard time the Giants had in collecting on their investment, and it was not until 1911 that he hit his stride.

why the fans like to see Chip in &C., ton. He bores right in and there are no id1em oments when hostilities are under way. He will meet a worthy foe in the Zulu Kid. The latter can give as well as take so he and Chin ought to furnish 12 interesting rounds unless somebody cuts the entertain ment short by landing a knockout punch.
 The Columbus Boys club will be out in a body to see Bud Palmer, their club mate. clash in a 10-round affair with Johnny Martin of Danbury. Both boys are capable performers. Young Hogan and Louis Bogash, both of this city, will mingle in the four-round opener. Seats have been selling fast and it looks as if the Casino will he crowded on Monday.

Buffalo, N.

He often forced Welsh to hold.

RODRIGUEZ IN DEMAND

It is said by a New York sporting writer that the Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates are kicking them selves because they granted waivers on Joe Rodriguez, the Cuban frs baseman, who was with New London last season. Both these clubs could use a first sacker of the Cuban's abil- ity now. Since Safer was hurt the Cubs have been using a pitcher on first and the Pirates have tried var ious experiments without success.
 John McGraw has high opinion of Rodriguez. He would use the Cuban himself except for the fact that he has such a brilliant performer in Holke. The Giants manager kept Rodriguez under cover at the train ing camp as much as possible and thereby was able to secure waivers. Since he was farmed to Rochester the Cuban has been a sensation in the International circuit Yesterday Rod- riguez in game with Richmond made two doubles and a single and stole a base.
 JUSTIN GOING WELL
 Hal Justin, the former Springfield pitcher, twirled good ball for Buffalo in his first International league game although he lost to Newark.
 Manager Pat Moran of the Phillies is handing himself bouquet every time he thinks of how he refused to let Wooden Shoes Cravath get away this season. The veteran outf1elder wanted to leave the big league so he could play in California near his home. But as some other clubs would not waive on Cravath, Moran decided to keep the old boy. So far Cravath has won two games with his old black bat.

that Pitts was Reimer's master.


 Pltts packed up an early lead but came near meeting his finish in the sixth round when Reimer rushed him around the ring with ridiculous ease. In the next four rounds, however, Pitts used lightning left with good effect. Reimer came back strong in the final round but Pitts work earlier in the battle entitled him to the popular de- eision. There were no knockdowns.

Sporting Chatter

The Kaiser thought Uncle Sam was just a big buffer. That's what Jack Johnson thought of Jess Willard and see where Jack is now!
 Billy Sunday says boxing makes a fellow courageous, but in some cases it seems only to make him fast on his feet. If all the "comihg Ty Cobbs" could be induced to enlist in Uncle Sammy's army, that first half million would be as good as raised.
 Some boxers say it doesn't hurt to be knocked out, but they could never convince a ball player who has. been beaned by a fast one.
 St. Louis used to win pennants in the old American Association, but it is doubtful if the Mound City clubs could do it in the new A. A.
 Ginks who throw pop bottles at umpires should be shipped off to Eur ope and given chance to throw bombs at the enemy.
 With no college football next fall it looks as if the poor squirrels must be in for a mighty hard winter.
 It's pretty tough on a guy who is both a baseball and boxing fan. The poor fish never gets a vacation.
 If some ball players were permittsd h-1 y.,.. all summer.
 'Umpires do their best" says a scribe, land when you can't praise them you should keep still" In oth- CT words, you should never say any thing about umpires.
