TO MIX IT NOW
Majors Have Been East VS..
East and West VS.. West.
Now Schedule Calls for Western
Teams to Meet Fasteners.

New York. May 9.-After close to
four weeks on an east-east and west
west stunt, the major league ball
clubs will start the first intersectional
bill of the season tomorrow.
The western clubs of the National
League come east and the eastern
American League clubs go west
While the pennant races will not be
decided in these International skirm-
ishes, good line may be obtained on
where the pennants are going to roost
next October.
So far, western teams are showing
the way in both circuits. Pittsburgh
is leading the National League by
three games, and Cleveland has about
the same margin.
The Pirates, with their pitchers 60
ing well and with their offense lead
ing the league with the sick, are well
fortified for long stay on enemy soil.
Gibson has Boston and Philadelphia
to work on before he meets his most
dangerous rivals-the Broo k yn
champions and the Giants.
Some of the eastern critics say that
Pittsburgh has become fat off easy
Cincinnati, St Louis and Chicago
meat. Even without Kopf and Roush,
the Reds gave the Pirates the worst
battles in the west, winning three out
of nine games. The Cubs won single
game from them and the Cards lost
every one.
Boston and Philadelphia aren't
taken seriously in the east, but the
clubs have shown strong inclinations
to rise up and strike back at times.
The Cleveland Indians buck wash
ington and New York, the two strong
est teams, for a starter and then have
the Athletics and the Red Sox.
Speakers club has been hitting like
a ffend and the pitchers seem to be
coming around to form.
Hugh Duffy has his Red SoX going
good and Cleveland may get a hard
battle from Boston. The Athletics
should be easy fer them.
So far. and the season is under way
enough to have real form shown, the
preseason figures are being followed.
The National league looks to be
Pittsburgh, New York and Brooklyn
all the way with the American league
flag between Cleveland and New York.
Washington is not being figured by
experts as a serious contender but
George Mcbride has a very good ball
club.

lthe bat. Both teams were handi-
capped by a muddy field.
Emmert of Rossville took the mound
as pitcher No. 1, in the first inning
He was called in the third after the
local railroaders had batted around
in the first frame, and made six hits
and six runs in the first two innings.
Golfers, who relieved him. showed a
lot of talent. He pitched absolutely
shut-out ball for two innings, but a
let up in the sixth allowed five hits
and three runs to the Santa Fe men.
Only once did the visitors threaten
to score. That was in one-third frame,
when two errors and a hit filled the
bags. Two men were out, and Wilson
decided the Rossville fate, by whiting
for the third jerk of the thumb.
Muckenthaler, who took the mound
in the beginning of the seventh, should
have been given his chance earlier. He
held the Santa Fe batsmen to only
one run for the balance Of the game.
