Pick-Ups From the Sandlots
By Francis E. Stan

Of the week day league managers OPP
pose the Terminal League Park, but 1t
has so many advantages over such fields
as the Ellipse and Washington Bar
racks that 1t would not be surprising II
the city series was kept in the Cage"
This new young man Of Manhattan,
FARO Agha, the 156-year-old Kurd, Is
being given rousing receptions every
where in little old New York now-a-
days. FARO who Is being closely studied
by scientists and everyone else who
meets him, should come to Washington.
He would be glorified If he donned
a uniform and played in the Govern
ment League, admittedly the "home for
the aged"
It's a wonder some illustrious sandlot
manager hasn't tried to get his moniker
on a contract, already. He would I'M
doubtedly make a hit in the Govern
ment League at least.
It isn't often one sees a versatile
catcher, but the Skinker Eagles have
one in Bob Wilson, erstwhile Western
High athlete, who now is student at
the University of Maryland.
Bob is playing whale OF game at
second base and Is one OF the prime
reasons why the SkinkerS are enjoying
successful season.
In base ball of higher class than
sandlot, it is said that no team will
go far without some good reserves, but
thus far the week day league winners.
with the exception of one, have got
by with squads of only IL or IL players,
If that many.
Naval Hospital, Government League
first half winner Is the only team pos
sessing a quantity of capable substi-
tutes. This may mean something in
the city series, If the Gobs win the
second half race.
1t looks as If the Northern Red Birds
and the st. Mary's Celtics will battle
it out for the independent unlimited
crown of 1880.
The Union Printers, who until yes
terday stood a good chance of gaining
this goal, fell by the waySide.
The Typos and the Red Sox, however,
stand a mathematical chance of
winning.
Despite the fact that the league
schedule is not completed, the six pilots
who organized the championship series
are to be congratulated on doing as
well as they did. Not until the season
was half over did Brooke Grubb, Bill
Flester Buck Grier, Charlie Corbertt
Ed Lowery and Bill Jenkins get
together.

A victory for the Tigers would have
clinched matters in the county pennant
chase, but those smuggling Bearcats were
not to be denied, pounding the COM

Chase pitcher, gained his ninth straight
win of the season.
Rockville kept within striking dis
lance of second place by a win over
Bethesda. Willie Coleman, diminut1ve
speed-ball hurler, allowed the Bethesda
club but four hits, while his mates
pounded home q 5-to-3 decision.
Foxhall came near repeating the up
set recorded by Chevy Chase, but Co
lumbia Heights, leaders in the District
section of the Capital City League, raj
lied to exc out a 9-8 victory.

place in the Prince Georges County race

the latter club was able to score. The
count was 10 to 4.

a year ago with 1903 and is fifth this
year with .307. 1t was FIRST in standing
In 1929 and is second now. New York
was fourth in batting last year with
.29s and this year is second with .3l7.
Brooklyn batted .297 a year ago, fifth
on the list, and this year Is tied with
st. Louis for fourth place with 1903. st.
louis halted .293 rating sixth and this
wear is tied with Brooklyn AT .3O8:
Cincinnati batted $50 last year ana
this year is batting 29l. Boston batteo

Every team in the National League
has improved In battln8 over 1919 Ca
Now for the American League. A

batted best with 1909 and this year Is
fourth with .297. In 1929 Detroit

it has .284. New York batted third last

Last year ST. Louis was fifth with .284

from third base. The danger Ia the
play of course, is the batter missing
the ball entirely, or the runner and
the batter getting their signs mixed.
Many big league managers have
the runner taking a flying start,
while others play SAFE" which
means that while the baserunner is
looking for the play. he can scramble
back to third If the batter misses
the ball.
The opposing pitcher and catcher
naturally are looking for the play
and can break 1t up by throwing a
ball at the batter's head that he
cannot reach. Therefore the signs
between the batter and runner must
not be too openly given.
Save this big league base ball
series, another will appear shortly.

KELLIHER SETS PACE

ALEXANDRIA, Va, August A.
Mickey Kelliher,S coming-out party at
Baggett's Park yesterday was q Sue
cess, both for himself and his st.
Mary's Celtics.
The veteran campaigner played a
leading role in the Celts' l8-to-S
triumph in a District independent
championship series game with the
Washington Union Printers.
Kelliher got four hits in five times
at bat, including two-base blow;
scored a pair of runs and worked de-
layed steal of the keystone sack that
enabled Pete Ball to count from third.
The game lacked much in the way
of luster, with the work of Kelliher,
Dreifus and Joe Hamilton standing out.
The hitting of Homan and Edwards
fielding at short were the high spots
for the Printers.
The game strengthened the Celtics'
grip on second place.
