Three Games In One Dav
Very Rare Occurrence

When three games were played
Saturday between Pittsburgh and
Cincinnati it was not the first time
the fans have had the pleasure of
watching a trio of contests for one
price of admission.
The first time two major league
clubs played three games in one
day took place in Baltimore be-
tween the team of that city and
Louisville, both members of the
National League. 1t resulted in
three victories for the. first-named
club by scores of 4-3. 81 and 12-1.
The games were played September
a, 1896.
The Pittsburgh club has now
played in two such affairs. The first
time they took part in three games
in one day was in Brooklyn, Sem
tember /, 1890, against the team
of that city. Brooklyn captured all
three games, the first by a score of
1913, Pittsburgh scoring all their
runs in the ninth inning. The sec
ond game resulted in a score of az.
while the third one was won by a
core of s to 4.
On two other occasions have two
ans played off a part of a game.
Iaking three for that day. These
re the only instances where two
teams In the major leagues have
ever played three full nine-inning
games.

game.
Act Five.
The Impossible Act wasn't i'm
possible after all. Il did II for the
wife and the kids" says Cicotte.
cicotte, who was drawing down
$4,000 a year and who was on the
rim OF collecting another $1,000 for
his world series work.
Not one or two, but group OF
star players, had sold cut the pub
lie. their own mates, their own
game, and their own souls.
They had fallen below the dis
honor of a thief.
But they had done this much
good-they had let the sleeping
rulers of the game understand at
last that baseball needed a strong
government and that the game, as
rugged as it was and is. could not
run itself.
No sport has ever known a great
er tragedy. But perhaps now those
who own ball clubs and those who
control the destinies of the sport
will wake up in time to remedy the
stupidity Of the past.
AS for those who sold out-well
perhaps the ghosts of Hall, Devlin,
Craver and Nichols can tell them
just what the future will hold.
Forty-three years have passed
since these four were caught and
expelled. and yet the black cross is
still marked against their names
where il will always stand.
1t is a wonderful future into
which they have sold themselves
and their families future that
few inmates of Sing Sing and
Leavenworth will ever envy.
The crime was big. but the crime
will be as nothing compared to the
punishment.

biggest event on the football calen-

One Year Ago.
"a tragedy in flve acts)
Act Ono.

Basebalrs great annual drama
had arrived again. But on this oe-
.casion there was an extra fringe OF
purple trimming.
For the first time in over nifty
years the Cincinnati Reds had won
pennant. Scheduled to meet the
famed White SoN, with the hardest
hitting club in the game, an entire
nation looked forward to the big
carnival with greater interest than
1t had shown in many years.
Thousands of words were written
upon the comparative strength OF
the two clubs, and thousands OF
arguments were developed in the
big annual debate.
On the day of the first game Gin
cinnati was stormed by loyal fans
from Texas to Maine, from Cali
fornia to Massachusetts,, and from
every city and village of the Buck
Eye State, to see one of the great
est sporting struggles of the gen.
Grafton.
Act Two.
The two teams take the field. AS
Eddie Cicotte, the shine ball king,
with twenty-nine victories to his
credit for the season. appears upon
the scene, Chicagos supporting le-
gion rises up to cheer him.
Another great cheer goes out to
meet Joe Jackson. one of the star
sluggers of the game,
Buck Weaver, the brilliant. scrap
py third baseman. draws an ova-
tion. There is a roaring chorus of
acclaim for Hap Felsch, Swede Ris-
berg. Chic Gandil and Claude WILL
Jams.
As Eddie Cicotte warmed up we
wonder how he would have felt II
he had seen a picture OF Devlin just
forty-two years ago-the picture
of a man in abject misery, thread
bare and seedy, groveling at Presi-
dent Hulbert's feet as he asks for
mercy.
II he could have seen Hubert
hand him, a $50 bill with this re-
mark: That's what think of you
for old friendship; but damn you.
