GRAY GOES BIC
DESPITE HIS
TROUBLES
Few Players Have Ever Suf-
fered as Many Different
Handicaps

Sam Gray, young Athletic pitch
er. hung up his fifteenth victory
of the season for the Athletics last
Monday. defeating the weakened
White Sox. When the handicaps
that Gray has been under this
season are considered, this is one
of the years most noteworthy ac-
complishments.
1t has been the fate of few play
ers to suffer the physical and men
tai tOrments which have been young
Gray's lot this season. Starting off
with eight straight victories in the
spring, including a pair of shut
outs against the Yanks, life ap-
peared to be pretty sweet and full
of joy.
In going after his ninth straight
victory, the youngster broke his
left hand when he tried to stop a
line drive in st. Louis. That kept
him out of the game for six weeks.
Just as the pitcher again found
himself, he suffered a worse shock
in the loss of his young wife, who
died after a short illness. That
broke up the youngster completely
and was largely responsible for his
poor showing during the recent
losing streak Of the Athletics. But
Gray has been trying to forget on
the ball field, and again is bringing
In victories. 1t probably will take
a long time to erase the vicissitudes
of the season of 1925 from Sam
GraY's brain.

Think WALKER
WORRIED OVER
TITLE BOUT
WeIter Champ in Good Physi.
cal Shape, But Mentally
Distressed

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-Several
critics of boxing, having looked over
Mickey Walker in his training camp
at Red Bank, N. j., today expressed
the opinion that the welterweight
champion seemed plainly worried
over the impending defense of his
welterweight title against Dave
Shade on Monday night. They were
unanimous in declaring that Walker
was in good physical condition but
that mentally he appeared distressed
and that his reactions were slow.
His boxing failed to please them
after they had seen him in training
sessions with frankie Schoell and
Jack McVey, both OF whom used
Shades crouching, weaving style.
Meantime. it was reported that
the New York commission planned
to take. action against the rival
managers, Jack Kearns and Leo p.
Flynn. for their elleged bet Of $500
against 5000 with Walker. the long
ender. Betting on fights is frowned
upon in official circles here.
1t will be Shades turn TODAY to
receive a visit from the boxing writ
ers. Reports from Grupps gymna-
sium, where he trains daily, are to
the effect that the challenger is at
the top of his speed and has almost
reached the welterweight limit.
Walker was well below the figure
yesterday. weighing 1852 pounds.
Early ticket sales were so heavy
that Frank Flournoy, the Rickard
matchmaker. predicted that the gate
would run as high as 5000. 900.

But WiIbert Robinson Believes
Pirates Better Off in
Other Posts

National League managers. are
pinning their faith in the Pirates.
Wilbert Robinson, rated as a shrewd
baseball student, picks the Pirates
to win. He figures that the slug
gers of the Pirates will not be
stopped.
THE Giants held the Senators
even last season. says Robby.
until couple of lucky bounders
in the last game decided the series,
and certainly the Pirates are as
good as the Giants were last season.
Pitching will figure in the last
analysis and the Pirate pitchers
this year are more effective than
was the Giants hurling staff of
1924. 1t. looks to me as If it will
be Coveleskie, Johnson and Zachary

Grantham, Carey, Barnhart, Tray

Man for man the only place that
Washington looks better fortified is

Jacques Fournier, of the Brook

After a remarkable race. Williams

tied for first place. For months
these two clubs never were. more

With all the nip and tuck races

it is remarkable that at no time in
major league history has it been
necessary for any of the big league
mines to stage play-off series for
the championship.
Several times the big league clubs
have been very near a last day tie.

The Washington times., 1925-09-19

OF course there's one thing you
can't take away from Washington.
That's real baseball smartness.
Fellows like Harris and Judge and
Peckinpaugh are quick thinkers.
And they've had a lot of experience
in baseball There's a lot of argu-
ment as to just how much part
brains" play in baseball. To my
mind there's just one thing. Eel
lows like Peck and Harris are on
their toes and they're wise enough
to set the stage so the breaks Will
come their way.
I'm taking nothing from the Pt-
rates. / know they're al great ball
club. Tie fact that they beat the
Giants and shall no doubt win the
pennant proves that. But when it
comes to real baseball brains l fig
ure Washington has something on
them.
That's the Washington slant.
But Pittsburgh fans can find
plenty Of arguments the other
way. For instance. there's the
little matter of speed. No ques-
tion about it. that Pirate outfit
is the fastest club in the big
leagues today. There isn't an.
other club can touch them. And
In a short series speed is a big
thing. It takes several days for
an opposing team to solve the
style and overcome the speed,
and by that time the series is
over.
Both clubs can hit, The Pirates
percentage is a bit higher than the
Sena86rs--but when it comes to
driving in runs, hitting in the
pinches when hits mean ball games
it looks to me like stand off.
Both clubs have great infields
though Washington has a bit of
advantage from having been through
a world series before. The Pirates,
most of them mere kids, viii be up
against something new, and no one
can tell just what they will do until
they do IT.
The Pittsburgh outfield is better
than Washington's. With Carey.
CuyIer and Barnhart doing their
stuff, there isn't an outfield combi-
nation in either league 10 touch
them, and that's not taking any
thing from the other Outfields,
either.
But | didn't mean to start any
argument about the two teams.
What / started out TO say was
simply this. Pittsburgh and Wash
ington are nightly closely matched.
The breaks are the things that "ill
decide the series, as they have de-
cided most OF the other series in
the past Probably Wien I've had
a little more time to study the aver
ages and the percentages and COM
pare the two teams in all Depart
mentS I'll pick a winner At least.
/ caI try IL. Most other baseball
writers do.
But when folks come up to me
cold and ask me point blank who
will win the series, there's just one
answer l can make. It's simply
this: IL don't know
