WHITE SOX BALL PARK

Comiskey Once Settled With
Tanks for sc, 1903 Admissions.

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.--"white Sox Park"
in Chicago, where the opening game of
the worlds series will be played between
the Chicago Americans and the Cincin-
natl Nationals, pennant winners of their
respective leagues this season. is one of
the most elaborate baseball parks in the
country At the time It was built in
1910 it was declared to be a baseball
palace and since that time several other
oaseball clubs have erected stands along
the lines of Comiskeys creation.
The White SoX Park, moreover, Is the
only one in the country which is owned
by a single person-Charles A. Comis-
key-who is also the only man in the
big league who is the sole owner OF a
club.
The tract of land upon which the steel
and concrete structures are built con.
tains fourteen acres, and was purcha sed
by Comiskey when he decided to move
his team from the Thirty-nnth street To-
cation, where the stands were made of
wood.
The grand stand Is a double deck
structure. with box seats fringing its
front on both decks. There are II 900
of these box seats. The grand stand
seats behind the boxes are on inclines
There are about 5000 of these and thew
are all reserved, The lower grand stand
seats are reached by two inclined run
ways, which go up at either end of the
stand and when about half way IN

the top rows at four different points and

1907 and 1908 Mordecai Brown emerged
rom four series with just little better
record than an even break. He won
fve games and lost four. Two defeats
at the hands of the Athletics In 1910

The most unfortunate worlds series
pitchers have been Christy Mathewson,
Eddie Plank and Wild Bill Donovan.
Matty won four worlds series games
before he was stopped, but lost five of
his last six and ended his worlds series
career with an even break In ten games.
Mathewson met his hardest luck in
the 1912 series. when the best he got
out OF three games-two of them run
ring into extra innings-was a tie. Err
rors by Fletcher counteracted Big Skis
efforts in Mathewson's first game, and a
game which should have been an easy
victory for Matty resulted in a 6 to 6
eleven inning tie. In his next attempt

Rowland Refused to Complete
Deal for Hold With Mo-
line in 1916.
MATTY DRAFTED PITCHER

There isn't big league club in the
country that wouldn't like to have Hold
Filler, pitching star of the Cincinnati
club, on its pay roll to-day. Yet few
OF the fans are aware Of the route by
which Eller went TO. the majors. nor Of
man, then secretary of the Moline club
one of the Three 1 League, unravelled
for the young star back in the fall of
1915.
Eller and Barnes of the Giants were
pitching stars of the Moline and Daven-
port teams of the Three I, respective
ly, in 1915, hooking up in many a
pitching duel, with Moline finally win
ming a pennant. Eller was sold condi-
tionally In the fall to the White Sox.
He went on the spring training trip
With the White Hose.
The night of April 80, 1916, Clarence
Rowland. then manager of the Sox,
called the secretary of the Moline club
by phone.
"Eller isn't ready yet, but we'll give
you $500 for him." he said.
1.-THE contract calls for $4,000 or Eller
back by May 1. You couldn't have him
for s2,499. Put him on the train or
send us the $780,"
So Eller returned to the Moline club
for the 1916 season. But he was an Of
ficer in the State militia at Danville, ILL.,.
and he was called home when trouble
broke out on the Mexican border. When
he finally rejolned the team there was
trouble over his salary for the time that
he WAS gone and he finally Joined the
Henry. ILL.,. Grays, a strong semi-pro.
club. He was suspended by Moline.
Cincinnati had two exhibition games
scheduled with the Henry Grays that
fall. Moline protested the playing of
those games under the rules, which pro-
hibit one club in organized baseball
meeting any team outside organized
baseball that harbors a player suspended
by any other club in organized baseball.
The Henry Grays dropped Elier and
Garry Hermann had then to play the
games or be liable for failure to fulfill
his contract. Eller was then called to
Moline.
Here's your chance to break into the
big league" he was told. "Christy
Mathewson knows pitchers. We want
10 sign You to new contract for next
season. Then Wen lift your suspension
SO that you can play in the exhibition at
Henry. Go out there and show Mathew
son what you've got and it's a cinch
Cincinnati will draft you"
Hold went to Henry and he pitched
against the Reds. Matty claimed him
in the draft and Hold has since been busy
vindicating the old pitching masters
judgment.
And so 1t happens that the White Sox,
who once had possession of Eller, now
must face his shine ball heaved in de-
fence Of the Reds in the coming world
series.

a decision. He beat Vanguard. to l.,
in 1911, on Bakers first worlds series
home run off Marquard, and defeated
Mathewson, 8 to 1, in the fifth game of
the 1913 series. This was a two hit
game for Eddie.
Though Donovan pitched brilliant ball
in three worlds SERIES the best he got
was one victory and one tie In six at.
tempts In his first game against Over
all and Reulbach in 1907. he struck out
Howard for what should have been the
last out in the ninth. Detroit at the
time was ahead, 8 to 2. Schmidt, how
ever, dropped the third strike, permitting
Steinfeldt to score the tying run from
third. The game ended in a twelve in
ming to 3 tie.
In 1908 Donovan lost another tough
one to Chicago. In the second game
Donovan was in another tight battle with
Orvie overall Until the eighth Dono-
vans pitching had been almost perfect.
Only two Cubs had reached base, one on
a pass and another on a scratch single
In the eighth Tinker hit a long fly to
left, which started to go foul, but a
strong gust of wind suddenly blew across
the field and carried the ball into the
stand for a home run. After that Bill
went to pieces, and the Cubs batted out
six runs, winning 9 to 1.
Donovan won his only worlds series
victory In 1909, when he defeated tho
Pirates, to 2, allowing only five hits.

Plank Had Two Ytctorie..

Plank ended his worlds series career
with five defeats against two victories.
Compared to Plank 1t would look as
though Coombs pitched all around Ed
die, but 1t II not so. Few worlds series
pitchers ever worked more sensationally
than Plank. yet while the Athletics could
score runs by the wholesale for Coombs
they would go into a batting trance
whenever Eddie pitched.
During the five worlds series that
Plank went through on the Athletics
they lost five shutout games and Eddie
vas on the wrong end of four Of these
shutouts. In 1905 his lost to o to
Matty and / to to McGinnity. In the

scored on errors.
In 1918 Plank and Matty were to 0
at the end of the ninth inning, but In the
tenth the Giants broke through Plank's
defence and, aided by an error by Baker,
scored three runs, winning the game, 3

Rigler. The late SILK OLoughlln's

Though Billy Evans is considered as
able a man in the American League as

to take his turn In umpiring in worlds

An odd feature of the 1919 worlds
series will be the absence of Billy Klein
from the big doings in Redland Field
and Comiskey Park And Bill truly is
conspicuous at a worlds series by his
absence. He has umpired so often in
the ball struggles for balldom's su-
premacy that he go. to be considered
a regular part Of the worlds series
background.
Since 1908. when Klein umpired his
first series, he has missed only two, the
Cub-Athletic series of 1910 and the Red
sox-Dodger series of 1916. However, in
1910 he fell in for the fat Giant-Yankee
New York city series.
The point usually was taken by Ma
tional League presidents that Bill Klein
is such competent official that his
place is in the series. That was the
contention Of former President Tener,
who usually saw to 1t that Bill was
named as a National League arbiter. In
the four years that Tener ran the league
the Yonkers man lost only once. in 1915.
Bob EmsIie Ignored.
Despite the fact that Bob Emslie
umpired for twenty-eight years in the
National League he has never held the
indicator in the worlds series.
The four umpires appointed for the
1917 series also umpired the Giant-Red
Sox series of 1912 and the Red SoX-
Philly series of 1915.
The system of using four umpires in
the big series was started in 1908, when
the Cubs and Tigers hooked up. In the
four series up to that time only two
umplres were used, one behind the plate
and the other on the bases. In the old
days the officials drew down $500 apiece
for their work. They now draw $1,000
apiece for the series
