Of Johnson Cheering Harris Players Averages Often Misleading
COM MERCIAL CIRCUIT
TO PLAY ALL GAMES

Although Chestnut Farms Dairy has
the championship practically sewed
up, teams of the Commercial Base
Ball League will continue to play off
their postponed games during the next
six days.
Center Market still has two games

contests.
Chestnut Farms. Center Market and
the Telephone tossers hogged the spot

team counting twice. However, the
Marketers dropped one game, a clash
with the Dairymen resulting in u
6-to-1 triumph for Chestnut Farms,
and the leaders forfeited to the Tele.

Another group of batters are like
wise found every year in the class
ranging from 270 to .290. That indi-
Gates accuracy and dependability.
There are exceptions, Of course, which
merely prove the rule. Among these.
to illustrate, are batters like Stock of
the Robbins, Felix of the Braves, Har-
per OF the Phillies, and Blades of the
Cardinals.
The American League averages
show others, but those are sufficient to
make my point clear.
None OF these men ever was regard
ed as an exceptionally hard hitter.
Nevertheless. this year. all of those
four men have batted for an average
of around $50. This may be due to
the lively ball fitting in with their in
dividual style of swinging. / do not
profess to explain it. The fact that
this heavy hitting by such men has
attracted wide attention merely en-
phasizes he rule that batters rare
ly hit out of their class. 1t is possible
that these spurts will fall off and the
batters will yet settle into their nat
ural stride.
Disregards Runs Driven In.
In studying the averages to deter
mine the strength of players, we have
not seen-those in the minor leagues,
Tor instance do not pay so much
attention to the final figures as to the
number of runs driven in. The batter
who drives in a lot of runs usually is
q real ball player in any league. Even
that is sometimes misleading. A man
may have wonderful official average
and still be slow on his feet or have
bad arm. Those things must be de-
termined by having scouts personally
observe them
Some years ago when the draft
rule first came in, Mr.. Brush, then
president of the Giants. went carefully
through the averages of all minor
leagues. He selected one man from
each, the player. who had the very
best average, and put in a draft for
him. We got 10 players In this way,
and not one of them was worth a
dime.
| remember one big fellow named
Forsythe who could certainly hit the
ball. but when he tried to play first
base, his regular job, he got his legs
crossed. He knew little about the
game-wouldn't do at all. His knowI-
eds OF base ball ways was so limited
that he came TO me one day and want
ed to know where his laundry was.
Oh. | could point a dozen such cases.
StlI, every one of those fellows had q
remarkable official record.

Some pitchers We're able to get all
sorts OF stuff on a ball that had been
knocked about a bit. or had become
somewhat discolored. Nowadays that
sort of a ball doesn't go-eXcept right
out of the game before the pitcher
has chance to use it,
Pitching rules, designed to make
for more hitting, were put into effect
because ii was thought that the fans
preferred batting bees to pitchers
battles. If they do, they certainly are
getting their fill these days The OBJ
Ject of the base ball powers, in any
event. has been achieved. Pitching re.
strictions surely have helped. al
though the ball may be wound tighter
and have tighter cover than several
years ago.
Ruth Set the Style.
While pitchers are more hedged in
In the matter of delivery, il must be
remembered that many batters are
taking healthier swing at the ball.
Babe Ruth set the fashion and he has
had many who have tried to follow
his style. one-run lead doesn't
mean much in game these days, for
an opposing club will send batters
up to take a toe-hold and couple
of long hits will make a small lead
look sick
But for all the extra base hitting SO
lar, and in spite of the record number
of home runs, there have been some
mighty well pitched games in the
American League. Washington's
pitchers have shown their ability to
hold the opposition down to few hits.
The same thing goes for the other
pitching aces of the league There
are not so many hits made off pitch
erS like johnson, Coveleski and
Ruether. Rommel, Gray and Bryan

sarily. that the player is good or
bad fielder.
In studying them l look into the
number of chances handled. That is
my best cue. The player who handles
a lot of chances is certainly trying to
go after everything. BY taking hard
chances brilliant player often has
a much poorer average than the slow
player who takes no chances at all
AS 1 have said, the averages are
interesting and worth careful study
but they are not at all conclusive
which, / hope, answers the question
The two big league races really
have just started, SO far as a finish
fight is concerned. In our league II
has drawn down to the Pirates and
Giants In the American 1t comes
down to Washington and the Ath-
letics. 1t is seesaw in both
leagues question of who will last.
The Giants have gone through their
hardships and have survived We
still are crippled by the absence of
jackson, but are managing to get
along. The chance of the Pirates lies
in their luck in keeping their present
club intact They are remarkably fast
and can hit. If the Pirates should
suffer accidents that would break up
the combination, as happened to US
it would be a hard blow. They are.
not SO we'll fortified in secondary
strength as the Giants On an even
basis. though, this is to be the pret-
test fight our league has had in
years.
Pays Tribute to Quinn.
The Athletics have held on longer
than l had expected. Their pitching
has kept them in the fight. 1t Isl rare
that ball team is blessed with such
steady work as shown by Gray
Harriss. Baumgartner, Rommell, Wal
berg, Groves and Heimach.
Incidentally. all base ball should pay
tribute to Jack Quinn, that remark
able veteran. who, past 40, still is
pitching championship ball. He is a
credit to the game.
Another pitcher entitled to a place
in base ball history is Duster Mails
Notwithstanding his many years of
pitching, this veteran has settled
down for the Cardinals and in success
sion has knocked off the Pirates. the
Robins and the Giants. They were
certainly picking no soft spots for
Mails. and he didn't need any Our
game should be proud of men like
Quinn and Mails.
