Speaker And
Cravath Put
Pep In Teams

iris Speaker and Gavvy Cravath
are o%ut1elders, wonderful batters
and managers. They being the only
playing managers in the big leagues
today their cases are quite similar.
The one glazing difference Is in the
standing of their respective clubs.
When Speaker was made manager in
mid-season the club vas in third
place and was recognized as a PEN
mani chaser while Cravath's club,
II Phillies, was far down in the list
or the National League with no
chance for q flag.
Baseball fans are keenly interest
ed in these two managers. Both are
very popular with the fans. Hard
hitters in baseball always were pop
ular even on the playing field of the
enemy. {.
There have been outfield mana
gers before in the big leagues and
when calling attention to this point
one first thinks of Fred Clarke, of
the worlds champion Pittsburgh
Pirates of ten seasons ago. There
have been few better managers in
the big leagues. Fielder Jones was
another of the famous outield man.
layers. Jones always said he pre-
ferred to manage the club from the
outfield as it was the one point of
vantage for a manager to watch the
workings of the whole team.
, Ball players naturally look up to
their manager. If he is a man who
can think better than they, if he can
execute his plans better thai they,
he gains their respect. In the cases
of the past and present outtleld
managers each had something on
their team mates in thinking ability
and II playing ability.
~ Giro xroth for uporC hnd hapn the
foremost batting figure in theq-Na-
tional. He is slow on his feet but
manages to field his position credit
ably. Speaker is both a star at bat
and in the field.
Their playing will be an inspira-
ton to the other men on the team.
Speaker will play his position regu-
larly. 1t is likely Cravath will not
be a regular on the team but. will
figure prominently at the bat when
a hit is needed to bring in runs.

Things all went favorable in the lit
tie set to-" for the Monitors last night
and after getting a flying start in the
initial stanza they had little trouble in
~disposing of their opponents.
Gloff, the Monitors hurler. was the
main cause of the downfall of the
Merrimacs. He allowed but four
scattered hits and was especially eff
fective in the pinches. Pfeiffer up
held him behind the bat In superb
style.
Fullerton, pitching for the Merri-

inning TOT several MUS ana COUPE

four men. Fullerton struck out two
men. Burke took care of the back

Gloff allowed four hits and struck
out two men,. His teammates collect

The Merrimacs made a vain effort
to tie the score in the sixth inning
when they scored foul runs but Gloff
frightened up in the pinches and blew
safely through the rest of the game.
The Monitors scored three In the

the Giant youngster now with
the Toronto club, who is expect
ed to develop into a major
league hurler of first rank with
q little more experience.
"This spring." says McCarty,
IT tried to get Jones to cut loose
with all the speed he had, for I
. could see he vas holding back,
but he wouldn't do 1t. One day
1 asked him why he persisted In
keeping under wraps and he told
me.
"'Once I was pitching against
the best pal I have he said and
I cut loose with a fast ball. My
control wasn't good and the ball
hit him in the hip. The injury
laid him up for three months
and marked the end of his base
ball career. Since then I've never
put all my speed on a ball."
