BINGIE AND BUNGLE
IN DIAMOND DOPE
Sherwood Mnseo muffed a fly that cost
Boston a victory over the Cubs. HugheB
fanned 11 Chicago batsmen and appar
ently had the gnme ln hand until Magce
pulled hla mlsplay. Sherwood Is not hit
ting much at present, either, and It is
safe to say that George Stalllngs raved
"something frightful."
Miller Hugglns told Frank Bancroft,
business manager of tho Reds, that ho
nover was abused so much by anybody
In his llfo aa by Stalllngs after the
Cards had made a five-run rally ln the
ninth and beaten Boston 5 to 4 ln the
recent series. Hugglns Is a quiet, gen
tlemanly chap, and It Is a pity that he
was tho target for the Insane temper of
tho Braves' manager.
Tho Phils are members of the home
run or nothing club. The return of Lu
derus and Whltted will be a great help
to their attack.
Von Kolnltz got a hit when Paskert
could not find first base after catching
Bancroft's throw. The latter had made
a beautiful stop of a hard-hit ball, and It
was tough to lose his man.
Alexander seemed to be Just as fast
and to have as good a curve ball aa he
had against the Cardinals, but the Iteds
whaled everything that was served to
them.
In the last three days the Phillies have
made 10 hits and 14 errors. Not much
chance 9f winning ball games when the
orrors total more than the hits, Yet It
Is the batting slump that has caused
this erratic fielding. When n player Is
hitting he can do almost anything In the
fielding line, but a batting slump means
a general break-down.
It looked like a collision for Herzog,
Grl tilth and Leach on Paskert'a fly In
short centre In the first Inning, but
Herzog cut In front of Leach and made a
great catch, robbing the Phils of two
runs.
The emery ball charge la getting to be
a Joke, The umpire that can tell the
difference between a ball that has been
roughed by sandpaper and one that
strikes a rough spot on the stand or on
a concrete wall has missed his calling.
He should be a lawyer.

Strips of salt pork or bacon, spoons, live
or nrtlflcial minnows nro excellent baits
to use for these tlsh If tho halt Is kept
moving. Costs should be mnde close to
banks and Illy pads where tho plckeinl
are lurking after tho unwary shiners

to have postponed yesterday's game, but
Managers Mack and Jennings were not
willing to tnko a chanco on their playcre
on such a cold day with the field ln poor
shape. Double-headers drnw well In De
troit, too, and It Is hnrdlv likely that
more than a handful of people would have
turned out yesterday.
George Dauss, who has won six games
nnd lost but one, will bo Jennings' pitcher
tndny, nnd tho Tigers count It as a game
already won. Dnuss' only defeat wna at
tho hands of tho Highlanders, who tallied
tho four winning runs without tho aid of
a baso hit, and ho Is going better than at
any tlmo In his career.
Dauss will be pitted against Mack's
most consistent performer In Bob Shnw
key. The latter has been tho only twlrler
on Connie's staff who haa been able to
win a game on the Western trip to date,
nnd ho always has been effectlvo against
Cobb nnd Crawford. When an opposing
pitcher stops this pair his team mates do
not havo to bat out many runs, ns a rule,
to win from tho Tigers.

JOE BIRMINGHAM
RETIRES AS LEADER
OF CLEVELAND CLUB
Took Position When Harry
Davis Retired Succes
sor Has Not Been Select
ed by the Club Owners.
According to dispatches from Clevelahd,
Joo Birmingham, manager of tho Amer
ican League club of that city, has retired
from service ns the Indians' helmsman.
Reports differ as to tho exact manner
In which Birmingham quit his position.
In somo circles In Cleveland It Is said that
Somers forced his manager to resign,
while others declare that Birmingham de;
elded to retire of his own accord.
At any ratp, the real reason for Man
ager Birmingham's retirement wna th
poor ehowlng of the Indians. Ever slnco
Birmingham took hold of tho Cleveland
club, In the summer of 1012, after Harry
Davis had retired, there has been dissen
sion ln the ranks. .
Those In closo touch with Cleveland af
fairs realize that the chief trouble haa
been that the owners nnd directors of tho
club have attempted to run the club both
on and oft the field. Time and again play
ers have been suggested by managers of
the Cleveland club for purchase. Almost
Invariably theso suggestions were not
looked upon favorably by tho owners. It
Is a known fact that Vcach, now with
Detroit, and Maranvlllc, the speedy short
flolder of the Boston Nationals, co4ld
have been gotten by the Cleveland man
agement. But they were turned down by
the owners, only to develop Into great
players for some other club.
No successor to Birmingham has yet
been nppointed.
