NEW YORK. Jan. 12-There
Is general inclination in baseball
circles TO consider rather lightly the
New York Yankees as factors in the
next pennant race.
Why Because no. strength has
been added to the club.
A team that. has won two success
sive pennants should not be in need
OF reinforcements. when Il is a fairly
young club
The Yankees are not an old team
and while the club has not SECURED
any more new stars. the Huggins
club ought TO be stronger in 1923.
The pitchers cant be any worse
next year and the chances are they
will be Improved.
Babe Ruth will be another person
and when ne is paying strict atten-
ton to his business. ne will be a
great helD TO the club.

like the longest hit in the world to
the team at bat. However there IL
a bit more of the glamour TO the
home-run wallop that ties or wins
the old ball game.
There is something about the
home run that supplies one OF the
big thrills OF baseball. II is the one
feature of the pastime that makes
perfectly sane people throw away
perfectly good hats.
In my 90 years OF baseball, I have
seen any number Of timely home
run drives. have seen games won
in the ninth with the sacks hlled
and four runs needed TO win, when
some slugger drove the ball over the
fence. have seen extra-lnning
games. some Of them suggests
others pitchers battles. decided by
a home-run drive.
To my way OF thinking. there
never was a timeller home run than
that delivered by Frank Baker In
the third game OF the 1911 world
series.
New York had won the first game
OF the series. TO /. despite the tact
that Chief Bender struck out II men

inning, scoring Collins ahead Of him,

fatal results.
During that series. Marquard and

the difference between the pennant

Kid Gleason deserves to be rated
as one Of the greatest managers In
the game. After the housecleaning
of 1920 he had nothing left but a
second haseman. a catcher and a
pitcher that later deserted him.
In two years time he collected a
team that isn't far removed from the
championship class and might get
there next 'ason.
fn the same class with Gleason as
builder, IS the Hon. Sir Patrick
Moran, OF the Cincinnati Reds.
Pat had a pennant winner and a

the glory went To the heads of the
