The One Tiger Chance

The one Tiger chance of victory is
through a overwhelmingly stout at
tack. With this cut down they will be
through. This season they haven't
been hitting a half lick, and the re-
suit has been disaster
Cobb is the one man on the club
above 800. and ~ is rarely over the
mark. There is only one other men,
Der of the club above $50. the same
being Pep Young. The rest are All
under .240. Batting of this sort would
annoy any set of athletes. but a club
minus good pitching must go out and
get runs. or perish.
The Yanks are batting only a trifle
harder than the Tigers. But they have
the pitching to protect n weak attack
and carry il safely through. The
Yanks and Red SoX depend more upon
their pitchers stopping the other clubs
batsmen than they do upon sWatting
the other clubs pitchers. And you
can go and wager your ultimate shirt
that dood pitching is the most valuable
factor on any machine.
