BASE BALL NEARS
CLOSE IN CAPITAL
Griffs Meet Red Sox in Dou-
bIe.Header Tomorrow and
Single Game Sunday.
nY DENafAN THOMPSON.

The swan song Of major league base
ball in Washington will be sung to-
! morrow and Sunday when the Boston
Red Sox will meet the Nationals in
! three games. Two Of the contests will
be punched tomorrow afternoon start
ing at 2 o'clock and the final battle
Of the campaign will get under way
on the Sabbath at $780,
With Babe Ruth in the lineup of
Barrow's team and q quartet Of re-
cruit pitchers billed to perform for
the Grinmen these games will amount
to something more than q mere play
ing cut Of the string. Ruth already
has established an all-time big league
record of twenty-eight home runs. He
hopes to boost this mark to thirty or
more and with rookie hurling talent
opposed to him stands a good chance
Of accomplishing his ambition. The
Boston ball bruiser will not be fed"
Ing circuit eiouts. but he will not be
handicapped by being purposely walk
ed at every opportunity.
Will Pitch 90 Ruth.
The Washington pitchers will be or
defed to pitch to him on all occasions
and try to fool him. but in view Of the
notable lack of success that the star
fingers Of the league have had in
tackling this assignment all season 1t
Is reasonable to expect the fans Will
be treated to one or more Of the long
distance clouts that have made Ruth
the most spectacular figure in base
bail this year.
Apparently doomed to finish in sixth
place the athletes from the Hub pub
of the universe took brace a couple
of Weeks bach and by strong finish,
while st. Louis fell into the throes of
top Of the second division. Their Moid
on the Position is none too secure,
amounting to one and one-half games,
ana they will be counted on to play
at 3 fast clip in an effort to retain
the berth. Jordan. Snyder, Fischer ald

seha1k a1utton for work.


Despite his size, Schaik is . glutton
for work. Late in August, 1919. he
passed his one hundfedth.Eame mark
for the season. During his pfsyious
six years OF service In this American,
League Schalk had caught in 100 or
more games each year. Statfstiefanis
tell us that when Schalk hit the 100
mark in August he broke d major
league record for hard work. The
dope has 1t that George Gibson held
the record. For six consecutive sea
sons. when with Pittsburgh, he eau xht
In 100 or more games. Schalh's biz
gest year was In 1918, when he tank
part In 15S games. while his ieanest
year was 1O6 games, In 1918, which,
Dy the way, was a considerably curs
tailed season. 1t goes without SAVING
that Schalh will do all the catchfnS
Tor Chicago unless an injury forces
him out of it. It is also needless to
add that the catching will Be we'll
done. rs
Cincinnati is extremely Fortunate in
having Bill Rafiden IA one Of its two
regular receivers. Rariden in, iai7
did most OF the catching for the NeS
York Giants against the White Eor
He had an excellent oppertunitv 70
study the style and methods of ths
Sox batters in that sefies. ana no
doubt he learned a lot Of things that
Will come in handy in the cominr hat
ties OF the two champions. I can see r,f
good reason why the catching should
prove other than well worthy Of a world
series.

Schalk the Unusual.

Most catchers are satisfied to do all
their performing in the immediate
vicinity of the home plate, but not
the unusual Mr.. Schalk, for he roams
everywhere. 1t happened to be my
good fortune to umpire in certain
games in which Schalk made plays
that. are decidedly unusual for a
catcher. In fact, l believe Schalk
stands out as the only catcher with
first, second and third bases In one
of the gaines the third basefnan was
pulled far in to handle buflt. He
got the batter at first. The runner on
first decided to try for third on the
play. No one anticipated such play
of the plate he raced down to third,
took hard throw to handle from the
first sacker and touched the runner
out as he slid into third. Some play
No. 1. In another game, racing down
to first to back up all plays, as is his
made straight for the FIRST sack. The
batter had ovefrun the base in the
direction of second. A perfect throw
from the right fielder to Schalk en-
abled him to retire the runner trying
to get back to f1fst. Some play No. g.
ner off second. In the run-up that
followed between second and third,
Schalk got into 1t. He finally touched
the runner out as he was making a
last wild break for second. Just q mo.
ment before he reached the bag. get
ting the assist and putout Some
play No. 8. Those plays are SchaIk
all over. He is always doing some
thing different. He makes you take
notice In any ball game that he
works. Fans who see him perform IN
a big series are sure to watch 4 mas
