About the nearest approach To-
Walsh's performance in zoos was that

Sign That the Match Good When Tennis Goes the Deuc

stronger than New York. but the Zig
ers have yet to prove that they have
the right pitchers, so that may be the
deciding factor.
Where Arc the Pitchers?
Cleveland has a smarter infield
than it had in 1922 and better out
field. But has Cleveland the pitch
ers? There enters the argument be-
tween Cleveland and New York and
between Cleveland and all other clubs.
Chicago is in exactly a similar con
dition. Its infield is so much smarter
than that Of 1922 that the Sox must
be ranked as possible and probable
first division players. Its pitching
staff does not appear to be one whit
better than that of 1922. How far
can an improved infield and an out
field which is anything but simply
average aid a pitching staff which did
not show championship calibre in
1922 and which will have TO improve
greatly to show it this year?
Philadelphia has an infield which is
better than that of 1922 and an out.
field which is no worse. For the sake
of argument it may be assumed that il
is a trifle better, but the Athletics
haven't shown that their pitchers are
so much improved that they can be
recognized as flat challengers Of the
New York team.
Puts the Browns Sixth.
After New York you may take De
troit, Cleveland, Chicago, Philadelphia
and ST. Louis in the order named.
IL that is not pleasing to your local
pride or personal opinion you may
with as much right for your convic-
ton take Chicago, Detroit, Philadel-
phia, Cleveland, st. Louis, intermingle
them in any order you wish and you
are as likely TO be as right as another.
And don't forget that if these teams
play to what they have shown this
spring. the championship will be de
cided by less than % victories and
that they may be so punched at the
end of the year that none of them
will be more than a half dozen games
away from any or all of the others
and that the New Yorks, as much As
any one of them. will turn up their
toes if they can't keep their strength |
intact and if they don't try all of the
time.
This is no loafing year in the Amer
lean League.

INVASION OF TERRITORY.

New York. April 1:.-The question
has been asked as to whether an error
should be scored against player be-
cause he invaded the territory OF an
other player and took the ball away.
He made the play perfectly but 'he
scorer who seeks information thinks
that the invading fielder had no right
to do what he did and should be pen
allied in the tabulation.
Under no circumstances. That
again brings up the point to which
reference has been made in regard to
the lack of propriety on the part of
the scorer in assuming that the game
shall be played as he thinks it should
be played. In other words, the scorer
assumes the right to say that his opin-
ion is the basis of scoring and not
what actually takes place in front of
him.
If fielder does invade the terri
tory Of another and takes away 4
ground hit or fly hit which it seems
for the moment he should not have
tried to handle, the scorer has moth
ing to do with the play except to put
it down as one perfectly made if it is
perfectly made. II it is not perfectly
made the foolish interposition of the
fielder who tried to do too much car
ries its own punishment because he is
bound to be scored with an error. 1t
would be impossible, however. to give
him an error and correct play on the
same play.
For instance, IL the left fielder took
away a fly ball that the center fielder
undoubtedly might have caught with
ease, how would it look to give the eft
fielder n putout, which is a correct
play. and also an error? 1t could
not be done because there would be a
greater total of plays on the score.
book than actually were made on the
field. You know a score should al
ways balance. When you are finished
with it the result should come out like
bank bookkeeping. 1t is true that /.
doesn always come out that way bue
that is because mistake has been
made somewhere by the scorer.
The scorer must guard against every
tendency to record the game as he
would have it played. II the fielders
make mistakes of judgment they are
not to be introduced into the score
unless they combine with them .mis.
takes of play. Then they are always
to be considered. Even then. however.
but one error must be recorded. There
cannot be an error because it didn't
look as If the fielder made the right
play and also an error because he did
not make the play right. There is
much difference between the two.
Very often the shortstop is emba--
raised because the rd-baseman gets
in his way. II misplay follows and
it is evident that the third-baseman
is responsible for IL the error can be
charged against him. II the play is
correctly made the third-baseman must
not be given an error because he did
interfere. No error took place. The
batsman reached his base in a fair
manner and by earning it and if IN
error were introduced because til,
scorer thought the third -basemar

Holke had a pretty good year las.

ceptably. But if Holke fails to come
up to Fletcher's anticiDations, Mitch
ell will have the call for his job.
Mitchell is hard hitter, and while
he doesn't shine parti;.s arly in the
field, he is a mighty goou man to have
around. He can pitch, plays a fairly
good game at first or in the outfield,
but most of all he swings a mean hat.
