Earnshaw Is Type

TARNSHAW, of the Baltimore
Orioles, is the type of pitch
- err the Washington club needs
right now, not next month, but
right now. 1t may be that, not
only is Earnshaw the type, but he
may be the pitcher the Griffmen
want, and want badly, right now.
The Washington club, under the
arrangement which sent Maurice
Archdeacon back TO the Orioles, is
to choose between Henderson and
OGDEN baltimore pitchers, at the
close of the international League
season. Neither is Baltimore's
hest pitcher, good though they
NAV be. Earnshaw is the leading
pitcher with the Orioles. :.
A year ago there was some talk
that Earnshaw would go to the
Detroit Tigers. That gossip ended
with a rumor that Jack Dunn
wanted too much for the player.
:. Early this spring, or rather late
in the winter, it was rumored that
Chicago might land Earnshaw at
a cost of 100000. That didn't
happen. Earnshaw is still with
Baltimore and still winning games.
If Earnshaw can win eight
straight games for the Orioles, it
listens to reason that he might win
MANY games for so smart a club
as the American League cham
pions.
MiUhf Talk Business
"HIS writer does not know Jack
Dunn. He does not know
u what Dunn might demand
for his pitcher who was thought
good enough for both the Tigers
and the White Sox. He does know
why neither of these clubs clinched
deal for the Baltimore pitcher,
though rumors had it that the
price asked was too high. The
price might have been too high
for a team already possessing
capable pitchers.
But suppose Dunn would agree.
to part with Earnshaw, even at
the stiff price of 100000, would
that be too great a price for a
pennant, providing his acquisition
by the Griffmen would mean a
third successive pennant for the
Capital?
1t is this question now facing
President Clark C. Griffith. 1t
is for him to decide.
This is no especial plea for the
Washington club to buy Earn
shaw, allowing he is for sale. 1t
is a plea that the Washington
club get busy and find the needed
pitcher, whoever and wherever he
may be, even at price that is

TODAY'S
SPORTORIAL
b Kirk Miller

While we were not present at
Shibe Park yesterday to see
those two games see-saw, tee
tertotter or whatever you may
wish to call such gyrations, and
finally settle down to one VIC
tory each for Washington and
Philadelphia, it only requires
one look at the box scores to
imagine what baseball hysteria
must have prevailed within the
bandbox enclosure,
Note, if you please, that one
game produced 30 hits and 20
runs. to say nothing Of five
errors. When ball clubs begin
to turn In those kind Of games
there is desperation, aye, an
orgy of gestures which spells
only baseball bedlari.
In such games q true test Of
either team is impossible of
attainment.

In the second encounter. ap-
parently, both teams came to
earth 8 bit, although the three
naiscues perpetrated by one side.
and two by the other, prove
that the effects of the initial
Indulgence had not entirely
worn off.
In the opener, Philadelphia.
sent five pitchers to the plate,
which must have resembled
somewhat the Big Parade, while
Washington trotted out three;
not an uncommon occurance for
the Griffmen, who have ever
divided the work in about that
proportion.
In a game where each side
takes and allows such liberties.
it is difficult to see q league
pennant, say nothing of
worlds championship, in store
for either faction.
So much for the caliber of
baseball. if you choose to call it
that. What, with the heavy hit
ting and heavy scoring there is
little comfort to, be taken by
the winner and slight reason for
the loser to feel he has been
shown up.
Both might take lesson
from that kind of outcome-the
lesson that there is much room
for Tightening up all the way
down the line.
Fans differ considerably on
just what is a good ball game
and just what is poor ball
game. Some like to see no-hit.
no-run contests turned in and
are content to sit through. in
nings of baseball where no man
reaches first. Others prefer to
see the paths clogged continual
ly and a constant clatter of hits
rafting off the ash.
The latter group would prob
ably call that opener Yesterday
a red-letter attraction: but you
can see the same kind of stuff
almost any day in the week
down on the Monument Lat.
Even Boston. against New York,
played more dignified baseball.

age the greater the danger; and,
third, that any person, especially
