Once upon a time, neither Wheat
nor any other picket would have
been preferred to Jack Graney, ex-
cept in the matter Of batting out
base hits and Jack was no Slouch
at that part Of the game. Graney
has been an ideal man to lead the
batting order; great judge OF the
pitched hall, a dangerous hitter, fast
and crafty on the bases, a grand
fielder. with q great arm. One
could not ask much more but Jack
has been out of the game most of
the season and he is no longer the
danger to opponents that he once.
was.
the year shows him making four
hits in one game and three in two
others. Typical of his batting is
his 1923 average shortly after the
race started, which soon dropped
to .2S2 and then climbed to $40,
only to drop again to .287 right aft
er mid-season. Graney had only
one opportunity to bag six flies in
one game, but he caught five In
four other contests.
Jameson equaled Evans record
for consistent batting, rarely NOV
ing far from his present percent
age. He, however, needed seven
games in which he made three hits
each, to help him maintain this
pace. Neither did Jameson do any
thing unusual in the field, having
only one game in which heIhad as
many as five putouts.

Sheer batting ability may be gaug-
ed by the average of each player,
although the number Unsuccessful
sacrifice hits also tell how each

dication of speed is the. stolen base
column. Other assets OF the ath-
letes may be CLEANED from further
study of the foregoing table, all of
which will show thatJackson ranks
first among the leftfield prospects
with Wheat leading the others.
Jackson has fielded magnificently
this year in~spite OF his IL errors.
No player in either league covering
this position surpasses Joe in coy

going back for the hard ones or
coming in for Texas leagues, or in
throwing to bases. The White Sox
pitchers have not been as effective

performed miracles until the, home
crowdsltake them as q matter Of

three ef his Cleveland rivals enti-

At the time the above tables were
compiled the chances OF Jackson
and his mates Of the Chicago team
engaging Brooklyn were rather
slim. but It was necessary to in
clude the Sox in these calculations
because Kid Gleason and most of
the Chicago. players believe in
playing the string out. Chicago
has two more contests to play with
the Indians and clean sweep by
the present champions would change
the complexion of the race entirely.
Wheat is one OF the bulwarks Of
the Robins and his all around work
has been q considerable factor in
carrying BROOKLYN over the top
Zach has little OF the temperament
of the average star and he is al
ways willing to patrol his territory
to the best Of his ability.
He is smart" ball player in
every sense Of the word and in
variably does the thing he ought to
do and does 1t very we'll. Consider
ing that Jameson will probably
play when Mamaux, Pfeffer, Grimes
and Galore pitch, Wheat's edge in
the left garden must be conceded.
Ups and downs have marked
Wheats batting, especially in the
early part Of the season. He start
ed off with a record of one or more
hits in II OF the first IS games, but
then experienced . period OF de-
preston for nearly three weeks in
which he had only nine safe ones
,, TO show for 65 times at bat. Zach,
however, came right hack with rs
hits in Il games, thus showing that
even an extensive slump cannot stop
him. Zach has collected syats in
bun hes of three, 10 times, but did
not accumulate more than that
many safeties in one game Indi-
cative of his fielding ability are two
games in which he handled six put
outs each.
Wheat Leads Evans,
The only reason that Bill Evans
is not rated above Wheat is be-
cause he has been in only one-third
. of the games his team has played
and he lacks the experience of the
! Brooklyn veteran. At that, Evans
may confidently be expected to sur
pass the world series performance
of Wheat in '16, when the Dodgef
star compiled a hitting average OF
PA.
EVANS will cover left pasture for
the Indians when a southpaw
works for Brooklyn and at other
times Jameson will fill in. As stat
ed above with Evans in the lineup
Cleveland will have but little -ad-
vantage as far as comparison with
Wheat goes. but it Zach lives up to
his reputation he should take the
spotlight away from Jameson.
The outstanding feature Of Evans
, batting during the season has been
| its consistency, Bill experiencing
no long slumps or hitting sprees
simply going along at regular
800 gait. The fact that he made
three hits only four times aud that
this was his best performance fol
any afternoon Is evidence Of Evans
Smethodical batting. Likewise OF
defense the Indian has done little
of the spectacular from q statisti.
cal standpoint: having he'd six put.
outs only once. Six other games
netting four putouts each were hi
