M'KEAN'S SPLENDID
BASEBALL CAREER
Ed Had Life Batting Average
of 300 and Fielding Fig
ures of 900.

The recent death of Edward Mexican,
a famous shortstop of two decades ago,
marks the passing of one Of the four big
league shortstops who had lifes aver
age batting of 800 or better. Jack
Glasscock, Hughie Jennings and Honus
Wagner were the others. and 1t might
be added that this quartet in their day
were classed as the greatest shortstops
in the game.
Wonderful infielders and great bats
men they were. Perhaps Mexican was
the hardest hitter of the four when ii
came to driving them out Mac was a
terrific hitter and the drives off his bat
were the worry of all hurlers who had
to face him.
II was with the Rochester club OF the
old International League in 1886 that
Ed Mexican came into prominence as a
high grade ball player. In the spring
OF 1887 he was signed by the Cleveland
club of the old American Association
and for twelve seasons was with that
organization.
When the Cleveland club was trans
ferred to st. Louis in 1899 Mexican went
with them, and in that season ended his
notable career in the uniform of the St
Louis Nationals.

REDS SOUTHPAWS
DANGEROUS, HIGGINS
May Spring Big Surprise
Against White Sox.

Miller Higgins believes that the White
Sox will defeat the Reds in the worlds
series, but he does not think that Il Is
going to be easy sailing for Kid Glea-
sons hard hitters. Saws Higgins:
"Of course, the Reds are going very
well, and they do not believe that there
is team in sight that has any right to
stand up against them. They nave the
confidence which comes from steady
success. and will be a formidable oppo-
nent for the American League cham
plons / do not want TO be put In
the position of belittling the National
Leaguers, because 1 know from expert
eBce that such an attitude is a mistake
all the way
"Ruether will be the most valuable
finger for the Reds, of course. The
Chicago club does not like southpaws,
and Rue Their is just the sort to bother
them. You know they have been CIV
ing Chicago some trouble this year. A
year ago the Cubs tried to beat the
Red Sox with two southpaws and may
be the Reds will rely just as much as
they can on Ruether to beat the White
Sox, who think just as highly OF south
paws as the Boston SoX did a year
ago.
"Cicotte. Of course. will be the pitch
er the White Sox will rely on to stop
the Reds. He may be bothered some
| by the changes in weather and other
things, but he is clever enough to make
! trouble.
"Wingo caught for me in st. Louis.
| H is "A good man and they tell me that
he has improved. But l never did
realize just how good this Ray Schalk
was as a catcher and as team asset
| until the last two months. He not only
/ helps tremendously in that pitching,
but what wizard he is around that
| home plate How he takes throws
| from the outfield and tags the man
and how he hops out in front for hunts
and little rollers at which the batter
! has swung"

Cubs won only one game in five from
the Athletics.
Fred Clarke also has a fifty-fifty
worlds series average. He commanded
the Pittsburg team in 1908, which lost
to Collins's Boston Red Sox, but in 1909
his Pirates beat Detroit, four games 10
three.
The managers graduating from the
old Orioles have been gluttons for world 5
series punishment. McGraw is the only
manager who has been licked four times
IN series. He won in 1905 from the
Athletics, but in all of M3iraw's sue
cess since then another worlds cham
pionship always has been denied him.
His team lost to the Athletics in 1871
and 1913. to the Red SoX in 1912 and
to the White Sox in 1917.
Jennings's record in Detroit Is all that
saved the National League from being
anr.ihilated In a worlds series, Hughes
Tigers were licked by their National
League opponents in 1907, 1908 aHd
1909, Detroit winning only four games
in the three series. Then Wilbert Robin
son, another old Oriole, lost with the
Brooklyn club in 1916,
That seems to portend bad omen for
KID /Cileason. He too was one Of the
old Orioles!
