WELL BALANCED
 PLAY IS SECRET
 BASEBALL SUCCESS

, Boston was third in left on bases. The compilations showed a more complicated situation in the American league. Boston, the leading team on that date, was second in runs scored but in other respects was playing close careful but not particularly bril- liant baseball. The Chicago White SoX, right on Boston's heels, lead in greatest number of runs, but strange to say had the third largest number of runners stranded. Detroit was third in making; second in hitting, while St. Louis led in the greatest number of safe drives registered with Cleveland third. St. Louis spoiled her hitting record by piling up the greatest number of errors with Cleve- land second and Washington thlrd. bases than any of the other teams in the American league with New York second and Chicago third. The New York club was in third place notwithstanding that the opposing teams had made more runs against the Gothamtes than any one of the other seven combinations. St Louis and Philadelphia, the two tailenders of July were second and third re- spectively in this department of the records.
 The complete figures showing the total number of runs, hits, errors left on bases and opponents runs, taken from unofficial but reasonable accur- the season, are as follows:

Special Correspondence A. p.

NEW YORK, July 20.-(By mail) That well balanced and even base ball play points the way to the pen- nant has again been demonstrated by the figures compiled from the various averages and records available at the halfway mark in the present big league contests. When the turning mark was reached on July neither leading club m the National and Am erican leagues was among the first three in total number of runs or hits made but this mark of a finished of fensive was more than counterbal- anced by the strong defensive game played by the league leaders.
 club was first in runs with Cincin- natl second and Philadelphia third. Chicago was second m total number of hits reversing places with Cin- cinnati in this respect, whila st. Louis was third. This strong offense of the two western clubs was offset however, by weakness in defense. Chicago was first in error making; had more run ners left on bases than any other senior league club and third in total number of runs made by opponents Cincinnati was second in errors; sec ond in left on bases and more runs had been scored against the team than any other club in the league Pittsburg, in last place, had made the third largest number of errors and had next to the largest number of runs scored against by opponents.
