Cubs. But in comparison with Coch-
rane they are overshadowed.
81 Perkins. who has been with Connie
Mack for more than a decade, likely
will get in at least one world series
game, for sentiment if nothing more.
Perkins worked hard for Connie in the
tall leaders lean years, and Mack will
reward him. ST once was one of the
great catchers of base ball, and still is
a capable fellow. But he has slowed up
tremendously, is batting only .205, and
nearing the end of a fine career. So
Cochrane will carry the hod in the big
series.
The Athletics have third catcher in
James Mattox. but he will see no serv-
ice in the series unless Cochrane and
Perkins are injured, and that is un-
likely.
Were Gabby Hartnett in physical
trim, he might come close to holding
Cochrane even, for the Cub star Is a
good hitter and a fine catcher. But
with Hartnett out of the running, the
Mackmen must be conceded q great
superiority behind the plate.
