The Washington times., 1922-10-03

All through the battling for the
American League pennant flag, the
Yankees We're roofing for the Giants
to win in the National. They want
TO meet the MCGraw men. They
went down to defeat last year, and
in their hearts they pined for a
return engagement, honestly be-
Iieving that they can beat the
Giants.
There is not going to be any
sign of the recent slump when the
series starts tomorrow. The Yank.
ees are over that. 1t is q peculiar
feature Of the team that 1t knows
how to get up from under. In
Detroit. the Yankees twice failed
TO liven up until there were four
runs against them. and then they
reared up and pitched and swattrd
and fie.ded so that they won the
games that seemed lost.
With the odds against them, the
lanks are perhaps better team
than when they are even. In the
last drive, they came out from be.
hind In seven games out of ten.
bdDe ruin Is undoubtedly the hub
OF the team. When he hits. every
body catches the spirit and plays uD
TO the highest pitch. And in the
Series, Ruth is likely 10 do things
that will inspire the whole team.
Then there's the fork ball of Bush
Bush developed 1t last year after his
arm had gone bad and he had to lay
off for some time. When he got
back into the game, his arm wasn't
quite in shape. and he used the fork
ball, because for a while ii was the
only one he could use. Now it Is his
great strength.
Pipp's batting average is around
$3.50. Ward hasn't been hitting so
well lately, but he is likely to break
out at any time. and then he hits
hard. .PiDp, by the way. wasn't so
good until during the playing in St
Louis he had an argument with
Ruth. 1t seems that that buCked
him up. and since then he has been
going II at a terrific pace which
ought to last through the world
series.
Ruth and Meusel, besides, can be
depended on to slam out number
of home runs. and help decide the
championship.
Witt and SChang are going to
prove troublesome for the Giants,
for they have been making good
records.
Bullet Joe Bush will probably
pitch tomorrow in the first game
OF the series, with Bob ShawkeY
being held for the second game and
Waite Huyt for the third.
Pitching has won most OF the
world series can't be decided by
unrea sonable to expect that this
will he the case this year. All our
pitchers are pitchers who are used
TO winning games. Last year we
had only two pitching aces, while
this year we have five.
These are some OF the reasons
WHY believe we will win. I know.
and every player knows, that the
worlds series can't he decided by
past performances or by figuring
the done. Pail games are won on
the diamond.
The Yankees are ready for the
fight Their playing will speak
for itself But there are two things
bevond their control that may have
q decisive influence on the outcome
OF the series.
One is the way our Babe plays.
The other is which team will have
the luck to be favored by the
