II the young fellows continue to-
play the ball they have shown on
the various lots this summer by
another season or two the other
magnates will be voting to relegate
the local large leaguers to some of
the minor circuits. It's cinch
they won't keep on taking the tiny
checks that series here bring with
out some kind of a screech.
Be that as it may, the fact re-
mains that not even the official
scorers must go to Fenway Park
or Braves Field after Saturday.
The Braves played a pair of games
with Brooklyn yesterday and to-
day. The Rex Sox wind up with
the Yankees Thursday, Friday and
Saturday.
That series loomed up like a real
money-maker a while ago. Seemed
as though the A. l.. pennant might
be decided here. But the collapse
of the Browns softened things up
for the New York entry, so only
those curious to see the new cham
pions, or to watch Babe Ruth try
for homer, will annoy the boys
who have had such soft jobs at the
turnstiles all summer.
The Braves tried to get some.
where In this campaign, actually
had hopes Of doing so. But in
juries from the very start knock
ed them off the track. The Red
SOx never had q chance In the
world.
The only star the Frazee team
owned was Joe Dugan, who came
from the Athletics, and even the
capable Joseph couldn't hope to par
TALLY plug up the hole left by the
sale of Scott, Jones' and Bush.
The only satisfaction the SoX may
get out OF a tough year is that their
stars were necessary to make the
Yankees repeat.
The aforesaid Mister Dugan was
quickly shuffled over to the Polo
Grounds when 1t became apparent
that Miller Huggins hadn't enough
strength to stall off the rush the st.
Louis Browns were making for the
crown.
Joseph plugged up hole at third
base, and the Yankees, who were
slipping badly, picked up from the
moment he arrived, and have been
winners ever since.
If they collect the world title, as
seems probable, considering the
Giant pitching staff, they should
give Jumping Joe an extra series
share and erect some sort OF Frazee
memorial in the new Yank park.
Not since 1905 have both Boston
clubs finished below all the rest, but
unless a lot OF additional strength is
collected quickly by both the local
outfits, therell be no sixteen-year
lapse in the occurrences of another
such catastrophe.
So far as we have been able to
observe there's less interest in the
coming world series, than in any
title clash that has cIattered into
history I'm the past decade Or so.
The fans, who liked baseball when
Il was a sport, have sOured at the
cOldly capitalistic modern game.
Both the Yankees and the Giants
bought Themselves into champion
ships. The American Lcaguers raid
ed the Red Sox during the winter,
then snapped the whip in the early
summer when II became apparent
that they didn't have quite enough
playing stuff.
