man with a .235 average simply
isn't hitting in any league.
So. we wind up with something
OF an impasse, with one club
apparently having the greater
penchant for producing runs
and the other having the greater
tendency to stop them from
being produced.
This, as / see it, makes the per.
feet world series. There should be
no odds, except If you wish to play
the hunch that the Cubs get a
break on the first two games being
scheduled for the. home grounds.
However. four. times out of five
the first game decides the world
series. 1t will decide this one almost
to certainty, as study of the
schedrle and the pitching personnel
will lireveal 1t is the big first punch
d was talking about, and the club
that doesn't land it may find both
attack and defense running for
McSwiggan and running a dead
heat, at that.
The Washington times., 1929-09-21

For one thing, Landfs probably
would hear about it and call the
series off. For another, it wouldn't
be true. The Cubs appear to have
the sounder and more sustained at
tack. s.e
This opinion has to be based on
the averages. 1t is an unsatisfactory
method and perhaps it lacks logic
but when two teams. who operate
in different leagues, face different
pitching and use different playing
fields, are being considered, there
is no other basis of comparison.
Using it, therefore, for what it may
be worth, we find the Cubs topping
the Athletics IN practically every de-
partment of attack. They lead in
run scoring. total hits, total bases.
They have hit approximately 20
more home runs, have batted in
about so more runs and have stolen
something like 80 more bases.
Anyhow, the Cubs record plainly
says that they do more things to
that baseball, just as the Athletics
record says that they can do more
things with it. It remains to be
seen how much, If any, OF this
superior hitting and run scoring
is due to the smaller park in Chi
cago and how much.; II any, it
might be due to the alleged fact that
the National is less OF pitchers
league than the American, a theory.
held in some quarters.
Frankly, I suspect that the Cubs
attack is entitled to most OF Nthe
break that the averages seem to
give them. The Athletics attack
may improve accordingly with four
of the seven games scheduled for
Chicago, yet potentially the Athletics
lack the nine-man punch OF the
Cubs. The difference lies largely
with Boley and Bishopt the second
Nbase combination.
aornsby, for example, admittedly,
is the big gun of the Cub offense.
The Athletics can match him with
Simmons. Both are right hand hit
ters well up around .37O,s and they
not only hit them consistently but
far. also would be willing to
match F'oxx with Stephenson for
consistency or with either Cuyler
or Wilson for slugging.
In fact, If 1t were to be a case of
the big four against the big four
Simmons, Foxx, Miller and Coch-
rane versus Hornsby, Stephenson,
Cuyler and Wilson, would ven

Irving Hadley, the youthful Lynn

aser Walter johnson that he can

That the Athletics have cinChed
their American League bunting
with comparative ease Is due
largely td the downfall of two
clubs-WashingtOn and Detroit.
Between them these teams have
dropped go starts to the Mackmen
while winning only 8. Which Is
enough in itself to assure them
of their stampede.
The Griffs have been collared 16
times out of 10 starts while 16 wins
IN 21 tries have been chalked up
at the expense of the Bengals.
since the AS have experienced
