Risberg in the field and at the bat.
He proved himself a power of
strength in tight places. Contrary to
expectations, Buck Weaver had a
comfortable shade over Heinie Groh
at third base. Groh played remark
able ball In the first, few games, but
fell OF toward the end of the series.
John Collins who played right
field in part of the games for the Sox
ranked on par with Earle Neaie.
But the Red outfielder showed bet.
ter than Memo Leibold. He made
many brilliant catches and was one
OF the series surprises at bat.
Eddie Roush stands alone In GEN.
ter field. His work showed him to
be one OF the greatest players in the
game. Happy Felsch though he had
hard luck, was outshone.
Duncan was one of the stars of the
game. He held his own with the
great Joe Jackson considering the
fact that the Cincinnati youngster
was making his first start in an i'm.
portant series,
Kay Schalk is one of the greatest
catchers in the game, but in this
series both Rariden and Wingo out
played him.
Kerr was the bright star of the
White Sox pitching stan, though
worlds OF credit must be given to the
game Eddie Cicotte who came back
and won after two defeats.
Hod Eller was particular star of
the Red staff, but all of Moran's
pitchers did high class work.
Pat Moran, think, showed
superior judgment over Kid Gleason
throughout the games. His work
came In for criticism only once and
that was when he allowed Sallee TO
remain in the box when it was evil
dent he was not right in the last
game at Cincinnati. But he NAV
have had his own reasons, possibly
Sallee was the only pitcher who
really was ready to work.
The Sox attack was mechanical
and Gleason had them swinging hard
all the time at pitching they found
hard to hit Moran varied his attack.
he waited out the pitchers and this
caused Williams first defeat. The
Reds laid the ball down when slug
ging tactics did not work, and they
switched their game whenever
necessary.
This would have been an excellent
seven game series, but toward the
last 1t petered out The players were
tired and even the umpires suffered
under the strain. / believe the old
seven game series is the proper one.
ANY way this series proved that
superior class will tell in either
short series or a long one.
