The Brooklyn veteran is hitting
around $50. and promises to finish the
season with the latest mark of his
career. As a result Of his improved
hitting his fielding has become increas-
ingly brilliant and reliable. Many Of
the experts believe he has outshone any
youngster in improvement.
It is difficult to understand why more
batterS fail to take advantage Of the
lusty wallop. Clark Griffith used to
say: IF your style at bat Is detri-
mental, keep changing till you get re-
suits"
The lively ball has completely
changed the old order Of things, so
much so that the perfect strike through
the heart of the plate is not nearly as
essential to the batter as it used to be.
The modern batSman, has made q
business of converting pitches a foot
outside or inside into glorious three
baggers and home runs.
C'mon, you $50 hitter! Stand q bit

CUBS FIND GIANTS
ARE EASY PICKING
Use Old Rivals to Increase
League Lead-Mackmen
Also Gain Ground.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n K UGH to the embarrassment of
mn John McGraw, the New York
IVY Giants current Western tour
4 L to date has been a constant
source of satisfaction to the
growing Cubs of Chicago, traditional
foes Of McGraw teams.
For the third straight day the Cubs
yesterday administered a beating to
McGraW's punch-drunk Giants, 8 to 5,
thereby increasing their lead over the
second-place Pittsburgh Pirates to one
full game.
In justice to the Giants, 1t might
be said that they put up a fight to
save something out of the wreckage of
their series with the Cubs. They gave
red-thatched Larry Benton a two-run
lead in the second inning: then, after
the Cubs had tied it up in the sixth,
scored three more runs in the seventh
and held Sd advantage as the Cubs
came to bat in the last half Of the
eighth.
Cubs Pound Out Victory.
Then the storm broke. Singles by
Grim and Pinch-hitter Hazen Cuyler
brought another pinch-batsman, Gabby
Hartnett, to the plate. McGraw then
yanked Benton and sent Karl Hubbell
to the mound. Gabbys sacrifice fly
brought home the tying run. A walk
an error by Andy Cohen, an infield sin
gle by Rogers Hornsby and Hack Will
sons screeching double brought in three
more runs and decided the game be-
yond a doubt.
Wilson, incidentally, hit two doubles
and his tWenty-SiXth home run during
the days Mel OFT drove out homer No.
81 in the second inning. Blake started
on the Cub mound, but gave way to
Mike Cvengros, who received credit for
the win, although he pitched only the
eighth inning. Guy Bush finished up.
The st. Louis Cardinals, now oper-
ating under the personal guidance OF
Bill McKechnie, advanced to within
3h games Of the third-place Giants by
trouncing the Phillies for the third
straight time, 10 to 3. Jess Haines held
the Quakers to four hits, one of which
was Chuck Klein's thirtieth Of the sea-
son.
Behind clever pitching by Red Lucas
the Cincinnati Reds buried the Boston
Braves under 14-to-2 count and
evened the series, with two victories
apiece. Lucas held the Braves to nine
scattered hits and got four safeties HIM
self. The Reds got 81 hits in all, five
of them going to Evar Swanson.
Macks Get rs Hits.
There were only two games In the
American League, but in one Of them
the Athletics drove out Is hits to crush
Cleveland, 81 to 8, and extend their
league lead to 1912 games: Nine runs
in the first inning decided the game and
allowed Lefty Grove to win his seven
tenth game without extending himself.
In the AS hit column were two home
runs by Jimmy FoXx, his twenty-f1rst
and twenty-second of the season, and
four-base drives by Grove and Haas. as
well as doubles by Grove, Dykes, Haas,
Simmons and Burns.
Fred Marberry weakened in the late
innings and the Chicago White Sox
eked out a 3-to-1 victory over Wash
| ington in 10 innings. The Senator's got
only six hits off Walsh, McKain and
Weiland. Marberry was reached for
nine.
