the Quakers, will pitch the first game

out the fault was not his. His support
was sieve like, as is frequently the case
with a club which runs strongly to
young. material, especially on big occa-
sions like opening days.
1t is not expected that McGraw will
send out one of his good southpaws
against the Philles. Cravath's is a
rlght-handed hitting outfit. The con-
tlnued rain doubtless has affected all
the pitchers sojourning around New
York. but especially those who have
,dled most since returning North. Jess
Barnes and Fred Toney, therefore, from
having worked against the Braves,
should be in better condition right now
than any OF their eliminates.
