bat hard enough. DOME Bush has
been doing all that he can to
squeeze dynamite into the batting
order and goodness knows he needs 1t.
He could win 10 per cent more games
If he had good clean up batter to
hit fourth or fifth in the lineup and
clear the bases every now and then.
Chicago is disappointing. The team
seemed to possess much more than it
did in 1926, but 1t isn't playing as
well. Experimenting was costly. Such
things can't be done with team
which in the year previous won 50
games and lost 72. At least IS more
victories were needed to put the Cubs
In. the pennant stakes this year.
Charley Root Best Pitcher.
There has not been much strength
is Charlie Root, and yet there are
pitchers on the Chicago team who
seem to have as much natural abil-
ity as Root. 1t is tough for the
Cubs to lose Percy Jones, but it has
been harder for the team TO find that
it can't rise above seventh place in
batting percentages. That's where
Joe Mccarthy fell down. if he may
be said to have fallen, because he
should have reached out for more
batting strength, regardless Of any
thing else, to help his pitchers, who
might be winners if they had more
aid.
Cincinnati has traded its material
until it is palsied. The Reds have
not made such a wretched showing
in years. Quite true, many of the
games that have been lost have heen
tight pitchers battles, but those
games might have been won if the
Reds had not weakened their hitting
power. A team that finishes second
in one season cannot weaken its
batting and hope to win pennant
the following year. 1t also is quite
evident that Hughie Critz without
practice is not the ball player that
Critz would have been had he been
with the team in Florida. Though he
finally got the money that he de-
manded, he is not playing the Kind
of base ball now that the salary
asks for.

vi Western half of the circuit
4 are skidding like a truck on
slippery clay. The plain truth
to be read in the table Of standing of
the teams today is that the Western
clubs are not living up TO expectation
and are away off on the forecasts of
the seers.
Nor are these clubs living up to the
expectations of managers and owners.
The st. Louis team is somewhere near
par. although they stand two-and.half
games behind the league-leading New
York Giants today.
The Cardinals did not play ball
against the Giants here last week with
enough enthusiasm TO suit their
friends or their enemies. The punch
that was in evidence in 1926 may be
there but no one stands around the
bench and yocalizes it. Last year.
the harder the Cards were put to it
TO win. the harder they played-and
they played with whoop and hur-
rah that was enlivening. They knew
they were going to be champions.
They svere told SO at the start of the
season and they firmly believed it.
Cards Cautious This Year.
This year the Cardinals are OPP
pressed Dy the 1itt liIaN tHey aAC
champions. Instead of walking on
the field carrying a tomahawk over
their heads and making savage ges-
lures at the foe. they are as cautious
as a pussy cat stalking mouse. They
are so ALFRED afraid that they may
lose the pennant which they keep
hidden in the bat bag, that the first
thing they know they will lose it.
The Pittsburgh team which also
stands two and a half games behind
the Giants today, probably is going as
well as anybody might expect with
two winning pitchers and others who
hope to be winners before the season
is over. Pennants have been won
with two winning pitchers. Such
things happened in the old days, but
the two winning pitchers had eight
winning batters to help them.
The Pirates bat WELL but they don't
