not looked at much high class

year, at least not nearly so much of
it as there is in the National, and /

The Pirates have gone over
the Babes" hitting record and
found that he can be fooled by
snlart pitching as often as any
other hard hitter. They do not
minimize the danger when Ruth
Is at bat, but they reason that
good pitching is just likely to
prove effective as good hitting.
Then, too, the Pirates have been
going over the record Of former
world series. Babe" has appeared
in seven post season classics since
1915; and although he went wild in
the 1926 series, elouting four home
runs off the st. Louis Cardinals, his
batting average for the seven years
is only .253, not particularly I'M
pressive.
AS a rule Ruth is less effective
in the world series than during
the regular season, the Pirates
claim. This. however, does not
alter the fact that the Yankees
at this stage are the general
favorites but 80 was Washington
in 1925.
The Yankees will have many
more world series veterans in their
lineup than the Pirates, many of
the latter playing in the big show
for the first time this season.
Manager DOME Bush, himself APP
pearing in his first world series
as manager, is urging his boys to
"be yourselves" and not be over
whelmed by the occasion.
Bush announced that the lineup
that finished the regular season
for the Pirates will be sent against
the Yankees, with Clyde Barnhart
playing left field in place of young
Adam Comorosly, who is ineligible
because of the late date at which
he joined the team.

the question Of pitching, and the
matter of defensive play. Pitch
ing has decided a lot Of wOrId
series. So has fielding for that
matter. II yOu'll go over the
records you'll see that errors
cost the Yankees the champion
ship last year, and they cost the
Senators the title two years ago.
For that matter il was errors
that beat the Giants In 1924,
and errors that trimmed the
Yankees in 1921.
All those things I'll discuss in

The 1927 world series should he
one of the hardest fought in sew
eral seasons and has a good chance
TO run the full seven games-even
as 1t did in 1926 when Grover
Cleveland Alexander turned the tide
in favor of the St. Louis Cardinals.
The 1927 contenders enter the
arena backed with strong hitting
and good pitching. The series
promises to be battle of pitchers
and hitters without any of the finer
subtleties of the game. With the
exception of the st. Louis Cards,
none of the contenders specialized
In base running. The others won
On hitting.
The final analysis shows that
Pittsburgh has a slight margin
ON the New York Yankees in
batting and in fielding. The
BUGS led the American League
champs by one decimal i'm the
field and by four points in hit
ting. Only i'm smuggling do the
Yankees have any decided edge
on the National Leaguers.
Scanning the pitching records one
finds that in IS games the Pitts.
burgh pitcher starting the game
went the full route. That small
detail may weigh heavily in the
Pirates favor in a short series.
However, New York's pitching staff
had a percentage of IT as against
.614 for the Pirates, and 800 for
the Cardinals.
In the field there is but little dif.
ference-only four points separating
the three clubs interested in the
series. But the history of the
series is that it usually is won or
lost by the men in the pitchers
box.
The figures show that Pitts
burgh and the Yankees are most
evenly matched. Should the
Cards represent the National
League i'm the series the Ameri-
can League champions would
have an advantage il, batting,
fielding and pitching. The bur-
den of the series would rest on
the Card pitching staff which Is
strong and might deliver.
The National League representa-
tive will enter the series still eyed
up from the hard race to win and
: will not have had the opportunity
TO let down. Which should make
the series a hummer, no matter
who faces the Yankees.

league is considerably better than
in the American.
1t cannot be denied that there
are some comparatively soft spots
in tina American League as far
as pitching is concerned, but if
there are any such in the National
/ have not been able to find
them.
True, our league had second
division clubs and tailenders, just
as any league must have, but
even those second division teams
had pitchers who could make
trouble for any team.
Look them all over, and any
fair-minded person must admit that
there are more good pitchers on
the whole in the National League
than In the American.
The Washington times., 1927-10-03


gins batters. They have proved
their might under all sorts Of
conditions and the power Of their
attack cannot be questioned.
But I contend that our club
faced much better and tougher
pitching on the whole during the
season than was encountered by the
Yanks, so inasmuch as the Pirates
maintained a club batting average
we'll above 800 all during the year,
and for some time led both leagues,
does it not necessarily follow that
our team is a great hitting one,
too?
Remember that we were up
against good pitching practically
every day during the season, for
there is hardly a National League
club that does not possess a few
high grade pitchers to throw
against opponents, even il it may
be lacking in its own attack 2r
in some other department of play
And If Pittsburgh could hit that
sort of pitching for a club average
of better than 800 for the season,
why should the Buccaneers not be
able to hit the Yankee pitchers as
we'll.
do not think the New York
pitchers are any better than the
best of those whom we have been
facing during the regular season.
That's why believe in my heart
that we have good chance TO
beat them.
1 am not at all fearful that they
will outhit us. If they hit some
into the right field stand at
Forbes Field, / think we can
equal them there, and besides I see
no good reason why our batters
should not get the range on the
short stand at Yankee Stadium
just as often as the Yankee hit
tiers.
We have some boys who can do
that trick too.
Admitting all the. Yankees
prOwess with the bat, doubt IL
they have faced any pitching
quite as good as they win find
themselves up against in this
series.
/ know that they have not bat.
Kremer. for example, for the very
good reason that there Is only one
Kremer and he does not work in
the Yankees league. He Is not
only a good pitcher, but one Of
the really greats.
In addition to his remarkable
stuff and control. he Is one pitcher
who, when out there on the
mound, knows exactly what it's
all about, fields his position per-
fectly. is wide awake every min
