: the DOPE
HTuEMuvmINHEHMIMIHHHRHTTANHINIIIHHnlUlIINHIHI
By VEDDER GARD

"AE would like to ask Man
IWI.a Higgins of the Yam
KEGS a couple of questions
which he will never see, and there
fore never answer.
We have the advantage of him
in knowing that the two incidents
we have in mind did NOT turn
out the way he had hoped. In
other words we have the second
guess. But just the same, here
goes.
''Mr. Higgins, why did you let
Tony Lazzeri bat in the seventh
inning with the bases loaded? He
had struck out twice before"
Now, because the New York
manager cannot answer for HIM =
self right here we will answer
81 him i'm the way we think he
would reply.
"Well, Tony is a good hitter.
There was no reason to believe
he would fan again, because he
struck out twice before"
To this we would reply: 1T was
a good place for a pinch hitter.
When a player starts striking out
during a game he is likely to end
up the same way. 1t just is not
his day He can't see 'em. Laz-
zeri is a young player. He was
thinking about those other two
strike-outs.
"He was wondering what he
lOuId do the third time with the
Vases loaded. He was not at ease.
There were too many emotions
tingling his nervous system. 1t
was the psychological moment
for a pinch hitter to face the
pinch pitcher, Alexander.
And now, Mr.. Higgins, what
was that last play of the game
for? We refer to the last out made
by Babe Ruth who was' caught
stealing second as Meusel swung.
Some writer's say it was the hit
and-run. Surely that was it. or
Babe went down Of his own accord
it is he that must be blamed)
And here is Higgins reply
which can be assumed: II was
gambling everything on one last
chance. We put on the Inland
run in the hope that MeuseI
would connect. Babe would have
tried to score on almost any kind
of a hit. We needed one run to
tie. Ruth had stolen second
once before. He is not bad
base runner"
The rebuttal to that argument
which seems logical would go
something like this Mr.. Hug
gins, we see no rear y for taking
SUCH a chance. " the world
championship at and only
one out standing bet In you and
defeat, that out shou .'have been
left to the man at bat.
mo one knows when a long
hit is forthcoming. Why tempt
fate embodied i'm an arm like
O'Farrell's? A double would
have tied the game. 1T will never
be known what MeuseI would
have done. But he should have
had the opportunity to hit. Mr..
4uggins, you took all the worst
it on that last out gamble"
