FIRST A PROBLEM.

FIRST A PROBLEM.
First base was the hardest Of all
positions to decide. For that reason
/ am discussing it before the Others.
HonOrs are about even between jim
Bottomley of the st. Louis Cardinals
and George SiSler of the st. Louis
Browns. Sisler has had fine year in
every department of the game and
with an average around 1850 is one
of the leading batters in the American
League. His eye trouble is all thing
of the past and next season / wOuldn
be surprised to see him leading the en-
tire league at bat. / don't know so
much about Bottomley but did get a
lot of valuable information in st.
Louis last week. from newspaper men
who had studied both st. Louis play
crs. | also got these interesting figures
on the players.
Alb. H. TB. H. Aver.
Bottomley 800 191 304 10 .37s
Sislcr &C.. .525 100 273 II .362
These figures show Bottomley
stronger on the offcnse. And if runs
driven in are considered. BOttOmlcy' S
lead would increase. The Cardinal
player has been IN in the first five
batters all season and right now is
on the heels of Rogers HornSby for
the batting championship. And he is
considered Il dangerous batter in 0
pinch. The writers were telling me
about a recent series with the Cubs
Chicago pitchers twice walked Horns
| by Intentionally. and, on one occasion
BOttomley who follows, crashed q
triple with two men on base; the next
time he hit a home run with all sacks
occupied.
From a defensive standpoint tn
comparison is closer. You can't judge
rival players so well from fieldin;
figures. It's generally admitted thai
| Sisler has an advantage over Bottom
ley in throwing, p rticularly with 1
pitcher covering first. Both men ar
very fast and there is little to choOst
between them in fielding their posi-
tions and handling throws. BOttomle!

that each player has been selected
on the basis of 1925 performance
