VI Phillies? What ails them?
A team batting percentage
of more than $50 since the last
week Of July, is what ails the Phil
lies. IAN incredible percentage for
any team. II the single player had
risen to height Of $50 it would be
q sensation, but here is a team
amassing those figures.
The best batting team in the Ma
tionaI League for all of the season
of 1881 was Chicago. with .2se, a
very fair showing under the condi-
tions which existed last year. Teams
have sbatted higher than 800 for a
season. There is nothing new in
that, but there is something stupen-
dous in the achievement OF any team
that can amass batting percentage
OF $50 IN IL games.
The Phillies have run away from
the remainder of the league as bats
men. Pittsburgh had been giving
them a gallant fight and that was
one reason why Pittsburgh moved
up from the second division to the
first, but when the Pirates went to
Philadelphia on their current East
ern trip they were smashed by base
hits which ratified of the Philadel-
phia bats like machine-gun fire.
TWO Philly players are candidates
for the batting championship of the
league. They are Don Hurst, first
baGeman, and Chuck Klein, out
fielder. A third man who Is help
