BASE BALL ON THE INSIDE.
BY BILLY EVANS.

ers Picinich was discovered by Mack
and carried by him for several years.
Steve O'Neil of Cleveland is rated
as one of the best catchers the game
has produced O'Neil was dug up by
Mack, and carried by him for some
time. Fortunately for Cleveland,
when O'Neil came to the Athletics
Mack was well supplied with veteran
catchers of ability, so that Steve
never got a chance to show. Wally
Schang is another Mack product.
For a couple of years he was a sensa
ton. Now he is Il member of the
Boston club and has proved valuable
to the Red Sox. Getting away from
member that Mack gave Frank Baker
to the New York club for fancy
sum, and said Baker has helped make
the Yankees contender by his work
at third and at bat. Truly. the base
ball fan spoke WISELY when he said
that when Mack wasn't winning q
pennant he was helping some one else.
1t wouldn't surprise me if Elmer
Myers proved a valuable man to
Cleveland. Myers is rather easily dis
couraged. Since joining the Athletics,
that team has been strong at times,
only to have something break up the
lineup just when Mack seemed to
Nave a formidable aggregation. With
the Cleveland club Myers is sure to
receive excellent support in the field
and at the bat. Undoubtedly he will
profit by such experience. Myers has
a world of stuff, enough to be one of
the best pitchers in the game. Lack
of control has been one fault that has
held him back. Under the conditions
that Myers will work at Cleveland, !
look for him to show TO advantage. !
am inclined to think his war expert
ence will tend to improve, rather than
set him back, some people are in
clined TO think.
Larry Gardner is valuable ball
player. Gardner is a veteran. but a
well preserved one. lie can still clout
that old ball and has always been a
fine fielder. Gardner is no Ty Cobb
on the bases now. He never was a
speed merchant. but. he can hit, and
that is what Cleveland needs. Those
extra base waliops of Gardner's are
sure to win many game for Cleve-
land this year. Jameson. the other
man in the trade, is a good fielder,
excellent thrower. a good waiter, and
a fair hitter. He will often fit in to
advantage.
Evening star., 1919-04-08

Few ball clubs have won a pennant
without at least one high-class back
stop. A good catcher is essential.
Perhaps no manager in the game
realizes that more than Connie Mack.
To that end the ball leader of the
Philadelphia Americans never over
is in sight.
The other day base ball enthusiast
who follows the game closely. paid
Mack the following compliment:
This fellow Mack must be Won
der. When he isn't winning u PEN
nant for himself, he is helping some
other club to do the trick, through
players who were developed by him.
The man who made the remark was
a Cleveland supporter. The trade
whereby Cleveland acquired Gardner,
Myers and Jameson for Roth was the
basis for his contention. He beileVed
the addition of those three men made
Cleveland a certain pennant CONTENDER.
There is no denying the sale of
Jack Barry to Boston just about
rounded that club into q pennant con
tender. The presence of Eddie COL
Inns on the Chicago club was the one
big reason why the Sox have been
such a big factor in late years. When
the sox won the pennant and the
worlds series in 1917. Collins was the
one best bet particularly in the
series. Last year the trade of Joe
Bush. Waly Schang, John McInnis
and Amos Strunk to Bosotn added the
punch to the Boston Red Sox, which:
had been weakened by the inroads Of
war Now Mack hands Cleveland
three men for Roth, and lot of
CIevelanders believe Mack has Just
supplied enough strength to make
the Indians a hard club to beat.
Mack has two fine catchers in Per-
kins and McAvoy. Perkins is one of
the greatest young catchers that have
broken into the American League in
years Recently Manager Griffith of
[he Washington club pulled a surprise
by selling Eddie Ainsmth to the De-
troit club Fans could hardly under
stand how. Griff could afford to part
with Walter Johnson's battery part
ner. On the Washington pay roll is
the youngster Picinich. He is . re-
markable young catcher Manager
Griffith thinks so we'll of him he has
delegated the catching of Walter
Johnson to the youngster. Likewise
he will catch most of the other pitch
