CONN|E'S SPIRIT
Mack Asserts He Has Good
Teaml Despite Its Low
Position in Raceie
By BILLY EVANS

PHILADELPHIA Aug. 4.-Despite
the fact that the Athletics are again
trailing in the second division, Connie
Mack must be regarded as the master
mind in baseball.
Even though his club, after a bril-
liant start, is now foundering about.
fighting to escape last place, Mack
is still the optimist
He says:
Give me another first-class pitcher,
a twirler of the Bender. Coombs or
Plank type. and another fence-busting
outfelder, and my club will come close
to winning the pennant next year.
Injuries and Illness
Il have the nucleus of a great team.
It has been sorely riddled by injuries
and illness, but 1t is still out there
fighting for every game. It is team
that doesn't quit. That is the greatest
asset of ball club, gameness."
About the middle of June I was
umpiring a series in Philadelphia. At
that time the Athletics were being
heralded as the sensations Of the
league. Mack's proteges were only
about three games behind the Yankees
who we're leading the league.
Prior to working at Philadelphia I
had been with the New York club for
some time.
They Respected Mack
All of the Yankee players had the
greatest respect for Mack's team.
They felt the Mackmen was one club
they had to beat out if it continued
to get good pitching.
Coming out to start the Saturday
game on June 16 with Cleveland, I
chatted few minutes on the bench
with Manager Mack
Your club is certainly surprising
the fans all over the country"
remarked. IF it continues to get
good pitching it ought to be just as

doing fine work.

had planned to use him twice against
the White Sox. With him out for any

Gus 1t may prove"
Naylor at that time had won eight
games out of nine and was the most
effective twirler in the American
League. His injury started the Ath-
letios on the road to ruin. He was
out over six weeks.
