Just Looking On.

The Cubs have two capable boxmen
IN Claude HendryX and Phil Douglas,
but it will be surprising If these two
right-handers have much to do in the
big games. Against some clubs they
would be counted on heavily, but it is
unlikely that either will do much
pitching against the Red Sox. 1t is a
case of a club which carries good
sonthpaw pitching going against q
club that carries most Of its punch
on the off side Of the plate.
Barrow has only one left handler on
his pitching stan, Babe Ruth, SO he
will rely mainly on Mays aud Bush,
with Sam Jones a possible starter il,
view OF his good pitching, IN, recent
games. Ruth Will spend most of the
except when he is pitching, as there
time. 1t would not be surprising IL he
IL called upon to. pitch as his pres.
ence on the mound would add. to the
batting strength. With Ruth pitch
ing Barrow could use Whiteman in
the outfield and thereby he would
have two good kitters in the game
instead Of having Ruth in the out
field and weak hitting pitcher in
the box.
Sam Asnew will do about all of the
in the series. Sam is not the
slugger that Wally Schang is, but he
is steadier behind the bat and is one
of the best throwers in the game.
Schang is inclined to inaccuracy in
his throwing. Wally will get into
the big games, but usually in the role
OF a pinch hitter. a specially at which
he shines

SOUTHPAW HURLERS
T0FACE RED SOX
Manager Mitchell Will Rely on
Vaughn and Tyler in
World Series.

According to present plans the
Boston Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs
will hook up in the opening battle of
the 1918 world series, the first big
series involving clubs from these two
cities. though each has had more than
its share of pennant winners Boston
has furnished contending clUb for
the series of 1903. 1912. 1914, 1915.
1916 and again this year. Chicago
has been represented in the October
classics of 1906, 1907. 1908. 1910 and
1917.
The coming set of games promises
to be battle between southpaws on
one side and right flanders on the
other. Manager Fred Mitchell of the
Cubs will rely almost entirely on jim.
Vaughn and George Tyler for his
pitching, while Manager Ed Barrow
Of the American League champions
will pin his faith on the pitching skill
of Carl Mays, Joe Bush and Sam Jones.
1t seldom has happened that such a
line has been drawn between the right
and the left handler as is likely to be
drawn In the coming series.
Use VAUGHN Often.
The jumps between the two cities
will give each manager an opportuni-
ty to make more use Of his star box
men than II the series were played
between two eastern clubs or two
combinations from the west Jim
Vaughn Is sure to be the Chicago
pitcher in the opening game of the
series and TYLER will yet tho COLL for
the second game. The jump from one
section to the other will allow an
extra day of rest and probably bring
Vaughn back for the third game.
Mitchell will find q left-hander par
ticularly valuable. IS the Red Sox rely
heavily on left-hand hitters. Harry
Hooper, who has batted around the
800 mark since the start of the sea-
son. is a left-hand hitter. Amos
Strunk is another player who swings
from the off side of the plate, and Babe
Ruth, the hardest hitter in the game
today, is another southpaw swinget.
Stuffy McInnis hits the left-handers
hard, but he is the only member of
the Red Sox troupe who may be
ciassed as a dangerous hitter against
the southpaws, and Stuffy has not
batted this season up to his form of
other years. Scott, Shean, Cochran,
Coffey, Whiteman or Agnew cannot be
classed as hard hitters. Schang is a
dangerous hitter and he switches ac-
cordfng to the pitcher operating
against his team.
