ANOTHER CURVE BALL
DELIVERY TROUNCES
CINCI AT BROOKLYN

BROOKLYN, Sept. 16.-In contest,
featuring considerable wrangling by
the Redlegs with Umpire Sentelle, the
Dodgers took the final game of the
series at Ebbet's field Friday, to 2.
Manager Moran and Wingo were the
first to leave the bench at the request
of the umpire because of their yelps
and loud cries of evaporation at some
of the decisions made.
Cactus Keck put up fair game of
ball on the hill for Cincin, but he re-
ceived erratic support in the field. The
Redlegs made four boners in the field,
which proved costly to the limit.
Curve Ball Works.
Leon Cadore, curve ball hurler, was
used against the Reds in the final
game and the dope proved just the
menu which the Moran men could do
nothing with. In the first game, Dazzy
Vance had held the Reds to advantage
with his curve ball and the Dodger
manager had the hunch that the same
kind of delivery would again, and he
was not wrong.
Walter Ruether, former Red pitcher
has been defeated everytime he has
faced the Cinci outfit this year and
Robinson thought it wise to keep him
out of the series with the old team
mates.
Roush Hits Homer.

the game away. The Reds were tc

Rr FRANK G. MENKE


John McGraw, manager OF the Giants
bids fair this season to set record IN
baseball annals that will go hard for
any other manager to beat, If not to
! tie. This year will see McGraw annex
/ his eighth pennant since he became
manager for the Giants. Only mira
Gle can beat him out of the honor
this year.
When McGraw took his team through
the west on their last trip there were
many skeptics among the New York
fans who felt that the Giants would
not come through. They had had two
disastrous trips on their other two
jaunts into the enemy's country. This
time they faced opposition of the keen
est kind. Every team they had TO
play against was contender for the
flag.
First it was the Pirates, where Nc
Graw's men won two out Of three.
Then it was Chicago where the same
result was affected. Then they jour
neyed to Cincinnati, took the Reds into
camp for two games-the only ones
lscheduled-and then went into the
lions den-St. Louisiana took the
three games played there.
Relax in East
The top speed with which the Giants
went on their last western trip caused
the team to relax somewhat when
they hit the eastern trail, but they
are in command now and should wiz
easily.
And this happened without the aid
of Phil Douglas. The shunling onz
was canned by organized baseball
when the Giants were in the land ol
the Pirates. McGraw didn't hesitate
moment in putting the skids OF
Phil. He knew that it might cost hin
a pennant, but he acted for the in
terests of the game. Instead of slow
ing up the Giants, it made them play
all the harder
With a mediocre pitching staff, they
went through the west like watel
through a sieve They overcame ever
obstacle and would have made a clear
sweep of the series in Chicago, haC
it not been for an eXcusable fieldlni
error that gave the Cubs the chanc'
to tie the game and win out in extr;
innings. In only one game were the,
beaten on their merits. This was il
Pittsburg, when Nehf, who Il time
had turned back the Pirates and ha
beaten them for two years, essaye
his thirteenth start and was nocke
out of the box.
Old Manager.
John McGraw has managed tn
i Giants for 20 years. During that pc
y iod he has had a second division tear
only once. In all those years he fl
ished only four times below secon
l. place. This certainly is a record an
y manager could be proud of. McGra'
.e is one of the best organizers in tn
e game. He can drive his team at to
2. speed when the occasion demand

Has One Regret
McGraw has only one regret. That
was in 1914, when he was out for his
fourth pennant 1t looked for time
as if John would set a record of four
consecutive victories. But the Braves
made their miraculous spurt that year
came up from the cellar and won out
going away. That was bitter pill for
Mac to swallow that year. But when
the Braves knocked the Athletics out
of the worlds championship in four
straight games it also knocked the
skids under Connie Mack's team and
he split it apart.
McGraw, however, has not been sc
fortunate in winning worlds series
He has only two to his credit in six
starts. One year he would not allow
his team to play for the title. Twice

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-Rogers Horns
by, the st. Louis star, who a few weeks
ago appeared to have the batting cham
pionship of the National league tucked
in his hip pocket, today has cause for
worry over the prospects of bagging
the 1922 honors.
Jimmy Tierney of the pennant con-
tending Pirates is the bogey ahead OF
Hornsby.
The Pirate, star second baseman,
has been travelling at such hot pace
with the willow that he is only II
points behind the St. Louis favorite
and, with the close of the season three
weeks away, may become a dangerous
contender.
Just little over a month ago Tier
ney launched his drive for batting hon.
ors, but it was thought this was only
flash in the pan. However he has
been improving his average each week
and the latest figures which include
games of Wednesday show him hitting
$50 compared with .345 four weeks
ago. In his last six games Tierney has
made IL hits which added four points
to his mark of a week ago. Tierney
has bagged 211 hits in 104 games, his
drives including "a doubles. 13 triples
and seven homers. Max Carey of the
Pirates has increased his lead in stolen
bases to AZ and his record of runs to
1877.
Hornsby Leading
Hornsby, however, is leading the
regulars With an average of 1897, an6
has increased his home record string
to 35, having bagged one four baggel
! during the past week.
The Pirates in their race to over
! take the Giants are out in front III

The Giants are hitting .30S, while the
Cardinals are third with 1902.
