may "hit 'em where he ain't." but he
goes and gets 'em where they are as
no other roan In baseball can do.
Speaker is a great man for a series of
uils sort, for nothing Is more depressing
to an opposing attack than an outfielder
constantly cutting oft baso hits and turn
ing almost sure doubles and triples Into
fanoy outs.
One or two great plays of this type take
a bale of the steam away from an at
tack, exerting qulto a bit of psychological
influence upon the entry who turns first
at top speed Just In time to see his mighty
wallop yanked out of the air.
Paskert can ntso make his share of fine
catches, but ho can't travel in as many
directions as Speaker can; and on form
he can't hit within two dusty leagues of
the Bed Sox star, who should be ono of
tho very few .300 hitters of the series.
Speaker is the best outfielder of the
bunch, and as dangerous a hitter as Cra
vath; not for the home-run stuff, but for
tho timely wallop when a blow means
trouble, not to say Intense annoyance for
the other club.
Cravath and Hooper
Hooper can outfield Cravath and Cra
vath can outhlt Hooper. Hooper can out
field most of them barring only one or
two. Larry Doylo never will forget tho
day that Hooper reached over tho short
fence Into tho crowd for his blow that
should have been good for a home run
and $30,000 extra for the Giants.
That catch was an Impossible play ono
of tho sort that can't be made but
Hooper mado It Just the same.
'The luck of the game will decide
whether Hooper's rare outfleldlng value
will offset Cravath's heavier artillery.
The advanco odds are that Cravath's
heavier batting will be a more vital fac
torfor Hooper may not draw a chance
to produce any miracle catches, while
Cravath will get from 16 to 30 chances
to assault the ball with his wonted and
accustomed eclat.
Starting tho series at home, Cravath
will havo two days' target practice at
tho Phllly fences, which aro easily within
his range. He has a wallop second only
to Sam Crawford's and a long blow In
a scries of this sort is always an im
portant development In the afternoon's
proceedings. Runs are going to bo very
scarce and badly scattered In the Im
pending carnival a four-base drlvo will
have exceptional value.
In eplte of Cravath's heavy hitting and
tho stable value of the Phllly outflold,
Doston has tho best of the argument here
with something to spare. Cravath,
Whitted and Paskert aro very good In
their various lines, but they are not
Speaker, Lewis and Hooper, not by a
healthy span.

LUDERUS SAYS
ALEX CAN WIN
ALL HIS GAMES
Philly Leader Believes
Grover Is in Best Condi
tion of His Career.
BOSTON'S PITCHERS
By FRED LUDERUS
(Captain and Firat Baarman of the Champion
Phillies.)
I mentioned yesterday that one of the
biggest factors In either a long campaign
or a short series Is trie manager of a
baseball club. But the manager on tho
bonch must havo players upon whom he
can rely to carry out his plans nnd this
burden must be largely borno by tho
Pitchers. In a series, such ns tho ono
in whloh wo nre nbout to engage the Tied
Sox, it Is essential that n club have at
least two winning hurlers, or they enn
not hope to come through victorious.
Our club is very fortunate In having a
man who Is capablo ot pitching threo
games In tho short space of six days.
This man, needless to say, Is Grover
Alexander. As tho series now begin on
Friday, Alex could not only go In nnd
pitch the opening day, Monday and "Wed
nesday, but ho could bo nt his best in
every one of the three games. Having
reached this conclusion about Alex, and
this opinion, by tho way, Is shored by
every man on our club, Including Pat
Moran, it Is not dimcult to go further
nnd say that it wo can select ono other
winning pitcher, wo will cop the cham
pionship. I say tl!a wilt happen, hut of
course, I mean that It will be tho caso
in the event tho team ptays tho game
which It has been playing nnd which I
think It Is capable of playing against tho
American League ohamplons. I know that
even with Alex In thero and ono of the
Red Sox pitchers going well, wo might
possibly lose by booting away tho game,
but It is not likely to happen.
ALEX IN TIP-TOP FORM.
At no tlmo In his career hn-i Aloxnnder
been In as good condtlon to bo Into a
world's series as he Is today, and as all of
our fellows know that, tho confidence of
the Phillies can readily bo understood. I
think that tho reason for Alex's great
condition today Is the way he has been
handled all year by 7Ioran. "When you
look over tho figures for tho season It
might appear to an outsider that Alex
has been overworked, but ho hasn't,
though ho Is credited with 31 victories
and 10 defeats. In tho first place, ho Is
a big, strong pitcher, who does his best
when ho gets a lot of work. "When Alex
lays oft too long ho seems to get a little
out of tho run of things and ho must
pitch to get back In tho best form. That
is the reason we had htm cut on the field
yesterday afternoon pitching. Ho and
Chalmers both had a good workout, which
I think Is esentlal to both of them to bo
In their best form In the world's series.
As I say, Alox seems to have worked a
lot this year, but as a. matter of fact ho
hasn't done nearly as much this season
as he was compelled to do In the. past.
The average fan does not realize that
many pitchers throw away a great career
In the "bull pen." Only Ave times this
year has Alex been sent to the pen to
warm up. In other years ho has been out
there every day, which means that he has
really given his arm the work that ho
would have given It in pitching almost
twlco the number of games in which he
was actually used. Furthermore, Alex
has been used "very little this season In re
lief work. Ono of tho reasons for this Is
that our pitchers have been handled so
well that they were able to go through the
majority of their games without being
relieved.
PITCHERS GET FAIR .CHANCE.
Pat Moran is not a manager who be
lieves in yanking a pitcher from the box
as soon as ho gives a base on balls or
yields a baso hit On the other hand
he keeps them In a long time, sometimes
longer than most people would think
proper. But he has proven that ho knows
each Individual pitcher on his club and
knows Just when to take htm out If he
has to remove him at all. Over In Brook
lyn the other day, when George Chal
mers seemed to be going badly at times,
I was sure that Pat would take htm out. In
fact, several times I saw him get up
from the bench, which I knew meant
that he was going to call on a relief
pitcher, but each time he seemed to con
sider the question again and sat down.
Tho result was that Chalmers did come
through in good shape, we won the game
and put Brooklyn out of the race for the
pennant that same afternoon.
When we begin tho world's series our
pitchers will be worked Just .the same.
There will be no pltchr in tho bull-pen
from the time the game begins until It
Is finished. Only when the man In the
box shows signs ot weakening will any
one be sent to warm up, and he will not
be put In unless there Is very good evi
dence that he is not able to get back
into his pitching stride.
AFTER TUESDAY-WHOT
To get back to Alex, ie will be In there
Monday again, for he will have had both
Saturday and Sunday In which to get his
rest. "What will happen after Tuesday's
game is another problem, provided, of
course, that the series is not ended in
four games, and I don't believe there is
a chance for that to happen. Should the
series be tied up then, or If the Red Sox
should have three games to our one, I am
sure that Alex would be back In there
"Wednesday with only one's day's rest. He
saya himself that he can do that, and I
think that he can and get away with it
in good style. And I am sure, further
more, that Alex will win every game in
which he starts. He may not know as
much about the Red Box batters as he
does of some of the hitters In our own
league, but he is one of the quickest men
In baseball to learn what to pitch and
what not to pitch to a given batter; I'll
bet that he can tell right now what he
is going to throw up there to Gardner,
Hoblttzel, Speaker, Lewis or any of the
other players on the Red Sox club. Then
Alexander has so much stuff that even It
he makes a miscalculation on the kind
ot ball he should use against a batter,
he Is more than likely to make his op
ponents become an easy victim on a fly
or a ground ball. He has his curve look
ing almost like a fast ball now. It breaks
just as the average pitcher's fast one does
and actually seems to gain speed after
tho break.
CHALMERS IS A WONDER.
George Chalmers, who is likely to be
seen In one ot the games, la In fine trim
right now. When his curve is working
right, he has a wonder, Then ne uses
the spltball and has a fadaway which
he throws with telling effect, becauae he
knows when to use them. Another thing
about Chalmers la that he la going at
his best when he Is in tho hole. I don't
mean by that that he lets up Just be
cause his club happens to make a couple
ot runs for him, but when he gets men
on the bases, whether It la through hit
ting or through rolsplays, be conies back
stronger than ever and pitches tha beat
ball that Is in him. That la the kind of
a pitcher that wins, and Chalmers has
the confidence of all his teammates, ao
I don't see why he should not win.
We are figuring at present on either
Shore or Foster opening against, us.
Which one of theae wm be in the first
game I can't say, but I will say tha we
will be reaay tor euoer or tnem. ThU
aWlr ls aw X UJt siteb tt
DIAMOND
two game, then on Monday Carrlgan
may call on Wood. No one seems to
know much about Joe's condition, but
I figure that he must be In pretty good
shape or he wouldn't have been able
to have had the season he has had.
Ruth and Leonard, the two left hand
ers, aro likely to como In the fourth and
fifth games, if there is a fifth, or it 1"
posslblo that one of them might be
selected for tho gam .Monday. That all
depends, In my opinion, on the actual
condition of Wood, of which no one Is
certain. Taking everything Into consid
eration, I believe our pitchers have It on
tho Red Sox In the coming series.
