The world series will present an
entirely new set of scenery. Not
since 1921 have two clubs entirely
new to the series engaged in a
battle for world honors. The
Yankees have represented the
American League six times, and
the Washingtons twice. Four
times John McGraw sent his
Giants forward as National color
bearers, while Pittsburgh and st.
Louis each have participated in
two series. So always there was
at least one set of old hands on
the Job. But here are two new
clubs, contesting for the suprem-
acy of the game. &C.,.
Both Cubs and Athletics won their
respective championships with ease
Chicago pulled into safe lead with
the collapse of the Pirates and Cardi-
nails, while the Mackmen have been
hailed as winners since July 4. Conse-
ouently both managers have been able
to shape plans for the series and hus-
band their resources.
The series should develop some great
batting. The Cubs. with HornSoy,
Cuyler, Stephenson. Wilson and Grim,
are a murderouS crew. and particularly
against southpaws. But the Mackmen
offer in return a mauling machine
composed of Simmons, Foxx. Miller,
Hale, Haas, Cochrane and Dykes.

Chicago has a great pitcher in Guy
Bush. the big winner of the National
League season. and the Athletics have
the fast ball king Of the game in Lefty
Grove. A duel between these two should
produce one Of the classics of base ball.
Connie Mack also has George Walberg,
another fine left-hander: George Earn
shaw, Jack Quinn and Eddie Rommel,
while Chicago boasts of Carlson, Nehf.
Root and Blake The pitching should
measure in skill with the batting. ana
pitching in a short series always Is
the dominant figure.
Victories by the Cubs and Athletics
may inaugurate new era of supremacy
in base ball. The Yankees must re-
build, and since the Mackmen are a
young team they may rule the American
League for several years. Chicago won
its pennant by wider margin than
any club has scored in the National
League in several years, and with Its
batting and pitching strength is a po-
tential repeater.
Few world series, not even those In
which Babe Ruth participated, have
given promise of more thrills than the
duel between the Cubs and Mackmen.
The season has been of unusual inter-
est to the fans the country over. and II
will continue until the final ball Is
pitched in the world series.
Tomorrow series of articles COM
pairing the players in the various posi-
| lions will be started. The rival frst
| basemen will be first dealt with.

ng the pennanC once more.
two might have been killed of. Possibly
our infield missed double plays earlier,
in some games which were vital. But
imagine all teams did likewise.
Some Fielding Dope.
7 looked at the fielding records after
my friend had buZZed me about. double
plays, and I discovered that the AS mad
about $50 fewer assists than the Cubs.
Give that some attention.
It is impossible for me to offer any
proof to back this statement, but 90
think that the fewer assists credited to
the AS mean that there were more fly
balls hit off our pitchers. It is an out
and part Of a good defense when ball
is caught on the fly.
want to say one more thing about
our winning the pennant. The Ath-
leticS have the team that won the most
games in our league this year, but 1t
looks to be out of order to try to COM
pare Macks 1929 team with any previ-
Gus championship club.
Who can say that the AS Of 1910
were superior to the AS of 1929? Con-
ditions have changed. We have to play
to suit the situations that arise this
year.
And I ask you to give this fact due
consideration. The Athletics won the
seasons series from every club in our
league. In other words, we had the
edge on each of our seven opponents.
Sure. we had our share Of luck. Any
championship team must have better
than a $3.50 break in luck. The balls
that take a bad hop for scratch hits
are a part of every game. Perhaps the
AS got more of these breaks this year
than in 1923.
But what I'm trying to get over is
that it makes no difference to Mack's
players of 1929 whether they are infe-
r,or to those who were White Elephants
in 1910, or to the Yankees, who won the
title in 1928. We are the champions
now.
| So don't think we are going to enter
| the series with any inferiority complex.
We know We won the league champion
ship by wide margin because we have
| the best team in our circuit this season.
! The big test will come next month,
and as the Athletics look and feel right
now the Cubs will know they have been
/ In war when the series is over.
Our main concern now is to avoid
| taking chances il remaining league
tits that might result in injuries, and
keep on hustling in a way that will
have us in the best possible trim for
the series.
