leaves quite a few to the credit OF
other members of the team. The
/ Yankee home runs were made as
follows: Ruth. AZ; Meusel II;

Besides the home runs the yam
KEGS have many other extra base
hits to their credit.
Some of the experts contend that
the reason there are SO few stolen
bases this year az compared with
former years is due to the elimi-
nation of freak" pitching.
Since the National league pen
nant has been won by six different
clubs in the past six years it is up
to the Cardinals and Pirates this
year. However, it looks like those
two clubs are going to miss taking
their turn.
Derrill Pratt. Yankee second
baseman, is making remarkable
record in fielding. On August
he made his first error since July,
1919.
1t is reported that the Cincinnati
club paid $1,000 for Pitcher Napier
