THE first base candidates for the
1921 event are likely lot of per-
formers. but none of them stands out
as the George Sisler or "Stuffy" Nc
Innis type.
OF the first sackers who have a
chance to break into the big series /
like Walter Pipp of the New York
Americans. 1t is my humble opinion
that Pipp is a much better ball player
than he has ever been given credit
for. He has the ideal build for a first
sacker, tall and 'rangy and yet not
awkward. He offers a great target
for his inflelders. He can stretch to
the limit for wide throw and seems
able to go mile in the air for the
high ones. He can also use his gloved
hand to excellent advantage. He is
also left-handed thrower, big aid
to first baseman.
Pipp hits the ball hard and 1t al
ways seemed to me that he is the
champion hard-iuck hitter. He ap-
pears to have penchant for hitting
his line drives at some outhelder. III

Pipp should look after hrst base In
excellent fashion.

Grimm of Pittsburgh is the first
player in years to fill that position in

all-around play has been great help
to the Pira tes in the race for the PEN
nant.

League several times, seems 10 nave
at last proved beyond doubt that he
is real big Lacquer. Kelley Is a

Indians Have Good Pair.
Manager Speaker, at Cleveland, uses
the shift system as to his first sackers.
George Burns, who just dotes on south
paws. plays the base when "A
left handler opposes the Indians, while
Doc" Johnston is the selection
against right-handers. Burns has had
big year at the bat, being around
