Though their mound staff is
short numerically. it is long in
ability since Bob Burke and Lloyd

to attribute the Nationals sudden squirt
to the great improvement IN their pitch
ing staff, but careful analysis OF the
recent performances reveals other causes
for the clubs rise.
Two Sans Are Hitting.
The improvement at bat OF Sam
Rice and Sammy West, the increase IN
fielding ability exhibited by Buddy Myer
at second base, the smarter running
of bases by the entire club, the more
general use of the sacrifice and the bet
ter bunting done recently by those who
formerly seemed utterly unable to make
sacrifcial taps have figured. as much
in the Nationals Splurge as the hurting.
Rice hasn't been getting more hits,
but he has been hitting the ball harder
than formerly. Until recently Sam was
taking healthy cut at the ball which
is the vernacular of the game for
free swing, and is getting better results.
Sans longer drives have helped those
on the runway when they came to take
more than the single base so many OF
the Nationals were prone to do on
hit earlier in the campaign.
Vests improvement at bat is notable
in that this heretofore weakling against
southpaw slabbing now is seeking the
deliveries of the portSiders about as
easily as he is connecting with the
offerings of right hand pitchers. Sammy
Is getting his hits often, too, and is
driving the ball much harder these
days.
Myer Much Improved.
Myer Is we'll on the way to become
a first-rate second sacker. He is cover
ing much more ground than during the
first few weeks he was stationed at the
middle post in the infield, and is getting
the ball away faster than he did in the
early part of the season. For while,
Buddy would set himself for throw
after fielding the ball. Now 1t Is gone
from him like flash, and he is getting
many of the fleet-footed players after
grabbing their grounders in deep ter
rttory.
Improvement in the running of bases
by the Nationals is quite marked. Bat
tiers are making more of their hits than
formerly, running with their heads up
and taking the chance for an extra
base offered by the sluggish work Of the
outfielders of the opposition. The
Nationals are not running the bases
recklessly by any means, but they are
running free-footed. And they are
stealing bases often now. Not only the
speedy members of the club, but such
slower runners as Benny Tate Jack
Hayes and Joe Cronin are learning how
to take advantage of pitchers lapses.
Turn to Sacrificing.
The Nationals have become a sacri-
ficing club within the last two weeks.
Early in the season it was almost impos-

home runs, sacrifice hits. bases on
balls, strike outs, hit by pitcher and
hitting into double plays. The last
named item is where Burleigh
Grimes, pitcher, horns into the
batting averages, for the Pirate
moist-ball artist had a most I'M
fortunate afternoon in 1925, when
he was pitching for Brooklyn, and
set a new major league record
which he probably never boasts
about. The Inflated Burleigh hit
right smack into two double-prays
in two times at bat, and into a
triple play on a third appearance
at the plate!
