GIANTS And YANKEES
REDUCE RIVALS LEADS
National League
CBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-While their
st. Louis rivals, league leaders, were
forced into idleness by the schedule,
the Giants and Yankees turned in vic
tories and narrowed the gap separat.
ing them from the top.
Joe Bush, twirled the Yankees to
within a half game Of the Browns and
hung up his 18th victory Of the season
when he beat the Athletics 80. Bush
allowed but four hits in a duel with
Eddie Rommell, Mack's ace and batted
in the winning run in the ninth with
a single.
The Giants reduced the Cardinals
lead to one game and ended their los
ing streak by beating Brooklyn 6 to L.
Jess Barnes pitching and Frank
Frisch's all round play proving the
winning cogs.
Pittsburgh now only five games from
the top, registered its twelfth straight
victory, tying Cleveland's season rec
ord by trouncing Cincinnati II. When
Tierney failed to hit safely it marked
the first time in five games that every
member of the slugging Pirate crew
hasn't connected for at least one hit.
Timely hitting enabled Philadelphia
to down the Boston Braves SO, while
Walter Johnson's pitching and hitting
gave Washington a "a victory owe
the Red Sox.

MILLER OUTSTANDING
CATCHER FOR ROBINS

In the spring of 1920 Manager Robin
son of the Dodgers decided that Otto
Miller had served his time as the main
stay of the Dodgers behind the plate.
Robby figured that Kruger and Elliott
could carry the burden and Miller's
services would be valuable as adviser
and coach of the young pitchers. So
Kruger and Elliott drew the assign
ments day by day for a while. He
planned to have Miller catch only when
Burleigh Grimes or Clarence Mitchell,
s~pitballers, worked. But when the sea-
son got under way Robby changed his
mind and decided that Otto's presence
was needed behind the plate day after
day.
This year Otto Miller is still the
clubs best backstop and doing his
share OF the catching. He still must be
rated as one of the best catchers in
the old circuit.
Miller's no spring chicken. He was
born in Minden, Neb., June l, 1889
He's been playing baseball officially
since he joined the Sharon club of the
20. and P. league in 1908. The Louis
~dlle Colonies drafted him in 1909, but
SEM him to Duluth in the Minnesota
and Wisconsin league. The next yeal
the Dodgers drafted him and the
Brooklyn bosses have turned deaf ear:
to all offers for him ever since. Which
in these days of cold blooded deals
speaks well for Miller's worth as {
player and member of a ball team.

REDS FAIL TO STOP
0NRUSHING PIRATES;
RUSSELL HITS HOMER

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 12.-Cfncinnau
Reds were the latest victims of the
Pittsburgh Pirates, when Moran's men
went down before the speeding Pirate
crew, Z to /. 1t would have been a
shutout but for a short rally in the
ninth, which allowed a Red run.
Fridays victory vas number IL for
the victorious Pirates, and at present
there is little hopes of stopping them.
Adolfo Luque started out for Cinc1
in a most radical manner. He fumbled
Maranville's drive at the box, which
went for a hit and then seemed dazed
so much that he walked the next three
men to face him, forcing in a run.
Things looked SO bad for the Cuban
that Cliff Markle took his place. Mar
kle allowed mor tally on a sacr1-
fee fly to Duncan, but got the next
two men in order.
Cooper in Form
Although it was true that Cincinnati
had Just arrived out OF New York, after
giving the Giants a big drubbing OF
three straight games, but the Pirates
were not to lose, when the pitching OF
the opposition was so easy. Probably
if the Red hurler had been more enec-
tive, to match that hurting OF Cooper,
they would have been battling yet.
Reb Russell, right fielder for the
Pirates, placed a hard drive between
center and right field in the third,
which was good for the circuit. Carey
was on the bases ahead of him and
thus was enabled to score. The Pirates
added another in the fourth on a sin
gle by Schmidt. and out at first and a
hit by Carey.
Another In Sixth
Tally number six came in the sixtt
frame on Grimm's long triple to left
and a double by Cooper. Caveney

Gnted further scoring by completing
a double play. Successive singles b!

Everything looked like a shutout IL

The Reds would rather play tn

that it is Paddock's athletic fame

CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-The race for
batting honors in the American
League has developed into one of the
hottest fights in years with only a
fraction of a point separating Ty
Cobb and George Sisler, for the pre-
mier honors. The st. Louis favorite
has been out of the game for about a
week, and the Detroit leader kept his
/ consistent hitting until he was at the
top of the list.
Sisler returned to the game and
since that time has been giving the
Georgia Peach a hard fight. Sisler
gained the lead, then he struck a snag
which the Tigers plot tool advantage
of, and today, with averages including
games of last Wednesday the two
stars are in a virtual tie with .400
each.
However, in order to decide just
who is out in front, the decimal when
carried out beyond the usual three
figures shows the Detroit manager
with a percentage of .40956 and Sis
ler's .40920.
Joins Select Ten
Ken Williams, the home run slug
ger of the majors, who has cracked
out his thirtieth homer, has joined the
select 10 by boosting his mark from
.313 to 1923. Title Walker of the
Athletics is the runner up to Williams
for circuit drive honors, with %, and
Babe Ruth" the king Of swat, is
trailing the pair with p. Williams in

honors. while Sisler, his teammate,

Reb Russell, the former Chicago
White Sox pitcher, who essayed the
role of outfielder with the Minneapo-
lis club of the American association
when he realized that his efforts on
the mound were fading, is now giving
the National League a surprise by his
heavy hitting. Russell was obtained
by the Pirates from the Minneapolis
club. He was one of the best hitters
in the league and was somewhat of a
home run clouter. Since joining the
Pirates he has socked out three hom-
ers in ID games. His batting average
is .423, being the result of % hits in
50 times at bat. In addition to his
three homers, Reb made six doubles
and a triple.

ting star, however, continued to top

cult, who have played in IS or moro

If Fulton's nose is not healed at that
