Young Best Right Fielder
In World Series Games

Manus covering short right for him
the territory is reduced. which
makes 1t possible for him to &c
deeper and more toward center.
In Bob Meusel and Babe Ruth
the Yankees have two of the worst
right fielders in baseball. Ruth must
be given credit for trying, and
Meusel some censure for not trying
With his large waist line and slowed
up limbs Ruth simply is not an out
fielder and of course for the same
reason he Is not an infielder. The
swat king-can hit at times and he
can't field. He can't go back and
he can't come in. When he gets one
in his hand he usually holds 1t.
Meusel formerly was a great asset
at the bat but he has slumped to
just very mediocre baseball player.
He has the greatest arm in base
ball and that let's him out. He has
speed on the bases but he seldom is
la the mood to exert himself. Ruth
also has a strong. good arm and nice
control on the throws to the plate.
Figuring that the opening games
OF the series are to be played on the
Polo grounds and perhaps the decid-
Ing game, Young is the most valu-
able player of the three, Tobin is be-
hind by a slight margin and the
Yank pair are miles behind.

GIANTS NEED 7,
YANKEES MORE

NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-(United
Press) With a lead OF six full
games over the Piftsburg Pirates the
New York Giants now have to win
only seven OF their remaining thir-
teen games to cinch the National
League pennant. If the Pirates win
all their eleven remaining games
and the Giants win seven more, the
New York Club would finish one full
game in the lead. Should the Giants
win only FIVE Of their remaining
games the Pirates would have to win
all their games TO land the pennant.
While the Giants are almost
einch to play one-half of the worlds
series the issue Is still in doubt in
the American League although the
Yanks are a slight favorite
If the Yanks win eight OF their
remaining ten games, the Browns
would have to win all of their nine
coming games to earn a tie. II the
Yanks win only five OF the next ten
games the Browns would have to
win seven Of their nine games to get
the pennant.
