Bu KIRK NILLER~

At least one thing was proven
before that $4,000 Sunday audi.
ence at Griffith Stadium, and
that is that the Philadelphia
Athletics are not invincible, and
that good, smart baseball will
beat them.
The Sabbath advantage ought
to put the Griffmen in rare
good spirits for their two-game
set in Philadelphia, starting to-
day, and mayhap give them the
impetus to clean up for the AS
and come back home tomorrow
night only five and a half games
behind the league leaders.
I believe this is not too much ,
to hope for nor too much to ex-
pect of the Griffmen who have
certainly been putting up
sterling brand of baseball during
the home stay which ended yes
terday. Meanwhile the AS
proved they are not unbeatable
by dropping an occasional game
to the Western clubs, principally
on the days Washington was
doing likewise.
In Sundays victory over the
Mackmen, there was all kinds
of pitching, from left-handed to
right-handed and even pop-bot-
tie pitching. For several min
utes the Washington fans grew
right ugly about Simmons

hard losers.

cavort, men like Mcleod and
Kuhel, for stance. the
thought struck us that Wash
ington should make quite q
rifle in the American League
race next season, probably bet
ter than they have done this
year.
The infield is better forti-
fled right now than it has
been in years, with youngsters
giving the veterans real bat
ties for their berthS, and with
spirit and timber like that
available, and all other things
being equal, Washington should
give even the invincible Ath-
letics a run for their laurels
in 1881.
AS Joe Holman so aptly said
not long ago. if the other clubs
in the American League had
done as much damage to the
Athletics in the first half Of
this seasons race as Washing
ton did. the Griffs would be
tearing down the stretch to q
pennant now-but then Ifs"
don't go In baseball, as we
all learn sooner or later.

Another element which is 60
ing to sta.-d Washington in good
stead next season is that
concerning joe Cronin. Joe has
attracted attention this year
throughout the entire baseball
world, and if you don't believe
that. drop in some day and look
at the letters to the Babe Ruth
Contest editor from all sections
c. the land, giving Cronin pref.
erence over the likes of Travis
jackson and Glenn Wright.
With an additional year Of
experience in 1881, and with
Cronin's batting improving i'm
measurable, what a. sweet
shortstop he will be a year
hence!
Washingtonians having any
curiosity with respect to night
baseball can have it gratified
a week from next Thursday
night when the Baltimore
Orioles will entertain the Phila-
delphia National League Club
at Oriole Park.
Only an exhibition game, and
staged largely for expert
mental purposes at that, the
game will serve as a gauge
to the hold the nocturnal sport
might be expected to have on
the baseball-going public, should
a permanent arrangement be
made a year hence to stage
the international League games
after dark.
We don't know but what
We'll drop over and look at that

do, well report back to. you
