ARE EVEN,
He SAYS
By Babe Ruth

NEW YORK. Sept. o18.-I
notice they We made the Cubs
favorites in the coming world
series.
Personally, / don't think they
should be. If were a betting
man there's one place where I'd
never make anything but even.
rnoney bets That's on a world
series, When two teams go through
the regular season playing good
enough ball to win the pennant in
their leagues. those two clubs are
as evenly matched as it's possible
to get.
A lot of folks often argue as to
which league is the stronger. which
has the better pitching or the
stronger hitting. Personally.
don't think there's any difference.
Measure team by team. year after
wear, and they're about the same.
This year, as / see it, is no excep-
ton.
Naturally I'm pulling for the
Athletics to win. I'm an Amer.
lean Lacquer and always have
been. I'd like to see the cham
piOnship remain In our league
as long as possible.
But IL the Cubs do win, why, I
won't GO around shedding tears.
/ know a lot of the players on the
Cubs and | know they're flne Iei-
lows. Men like Hornsby and VIII
son and Nehf and Cuyler and the
rest are great chaps who are doing
the same thing all the rest OF us
are-making baseball business
and trying TO get ahead In thelr
profession.
l suppose a ball player takes a
little different attitude toward the
world series than the fans. The
fans, naturally. are partial TO one
team or another and prejudiced IN
their views To the ball player,
not in the series. the games are
Just examples of his own work.
Without pulling for one team or
the other. he looks at the good ana

world series doesn't mean as
much in a baseball way as lot OF
people think, either. A five or six
game series isn't any real test OF
ability. The team that gets the
breaks wins-even though the other
team, over the length of the season.
might be superior. Take the Yam
KEGS, for instance. We lost to the
Cardinals in 1925. yet 1 think most
baseball men will agree that we
were a better team. Then in 1927
we defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates
in four straight games. And it's a
certain cinch that we weren't much
better than they were over sea-
sons play. Not by a whole lot.
The same thing was true last year.
All Of which is just more
reason why no team should be
installed favOrite over another
in a world series. f
One team may go into the series
in the midst. of a wild batting
spree, or in the midst of slump.
