OYLE OFFICIALLY GIVEN JOB
AT SECOND BASE
BY Mark Shields

Larry Doyle VIII play second base
for the Cubs tomorrow in the open
ing game of the 1917 season against
Pittsburgh. Doyle told Manager
Mitchell after initial practice on the
North Side lot that he was in cOndi-
ton to play and Mitchell promptly
made the announcement official.
This ends a couple of weeks of
false predictions, during which it was
said either Zeider or Yerkes would
be at the keystone when hOstilities
were begun. AS late as yesterday
there was a strong report that lei
der would have the job. To these re-
ports we have paid little attention,
going on the assumption that the in
field would be composed Of Doyle,
Workman, Safer and Deal.
Doyle, even with his ankle a bit
weak, is needed. He is a fighting,
aggressive type Of ballplayer and
such a man is sadly needed to speed
up the first line defense Of the locals.
Safer is a quiet fellow, and so is Deal.
Workman makes some noise, but
none of the trio has the pepper and
dash Of Doyle.
Larry will be field captain, and his
judgment in the position is excellent.
A man with authority and courage to
give orders on the field is an imper-
alive need of the North Siders. Nit
chell is putting together a new team
of cogs that have never worked to-
gether before, and there are bound
to be rough spots that will be
smOOthed off quicker with an able
field general in command.
It is a safe prediction that Doyle,
once the game begins, will pay little
attention to his ankle. In the heat
of battle he will run the bases with
his former speed, take a toe-hold
swing at bat and cover as much
ground as is necessary. On the
training trip he was almost as good
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-10


the Cubs had to fight for the adVan-
tage. It was only in the joke games
that Larry favored his prop.
Cy Williams is a sure starter in
center field, and WOlter is better than
an even bet for right. If Callahan
uses a sOuthpaw Mann will play left.
If a highlander goes to the hill Max
F3ack will have the post. The left
fielder is to be the lead-Off man in
the batting order.
Vaughn and Wilson will be the first
battery. The pOnderOus soUthpaw is
in the best condition of the hurlers,
and Wilson's injured finger is healing
nicely. jim Archer practiced with
the team yesterday and was lively
party. He is not yet ready for the
hard grind.
KLEIN and Enslie will be the UNI
pires for the local opener. In the old
days Klein had trouble with the
Cubs, but most OF his enemies have
disappeared. Bill has been practic-
ing his semaphOre movementrto in
dictate balls and strikes, and claims
his eyes are in mid-season form,
he peanut and popcorn butchers
have had an extra set Of hObnaiIs
put in their boots and all is ready.
Today the White Sox are in ST.
Louis, taking a final practice in the
Cardinals park and waiting impa-
tiently foT'the gong tomorrow. Row
lands team is ready. Good training
weather was encountered and the
team was brought to the first game
through a series of well-aTranged
practice games.
The only question in the man.
ayers mind turns on the pitching Sc
lection. Williams and Faber are the
leading candidates. CicOtte pitched
a full nine-inning game yesterday
against Des MOines, and Scott and
DanfOrth performed for the seconds
against Rockford. Williams has sUf-
