V
ATHLETICS NOT LIKELY TO
BREAK MAJOR LEAGUE MARK
FOR GONSECUTIVE DEFEATS
Pittsburgh and Louisville Hold Records for
Greatest Number of
. . Dropped
By CHANDLER
TtlU ATHLETICS have won only two
games slnco June 1, when Joe Bush shut
out the Tankees by the score of S to 0. Since
that time tho Mackmen have dropped 24
" out of 28 games, and It has been claimed
that they aro very ciose to the world's
' record for losing streaks, but a careful
', search of the baok. (lies of Sporting Life
reveals tho fact that there Is not one
chapco In n. thousand of, the Mackmen
Approaching the marks made by Louisville
' Jn 1889 and Pittsburgh In 1890.
' It also hao been taken for granted for
' years that the longest consecutive losing
treak wos of 20 games, made by Louis
ville, of the American Association (then
a major league club) la 1889, but this Is
' Incorrect. Tho Louisville losing stroalc was
of 26 games and not 26,
This losing streak was ntarted when
Matt Kllroy, a Phlladolphlan. pitched
- Baltimore to a 11 to 2 vlptory over tho
Colonels on May 22 and ended on Juno 23,
When tho famous "Toad" llamaey, con
sidered one of tho greatest southpaws tho
Kama has ever produced, held St. Louis to
Ave hits and struck out 10 men, Louisville
winning, 7 to 3, by batting Chambarlaln,
another famous hurlor, out of the box.
Pirates' Record
Tho greatest losing streak over a longer
stretch was mado by Pittsburgh, of tho
National League, In 1890. The Plratca
hung up a National League reoord for
oonaeontlvo defeats with 21, and alBo
started on another long streak lmmcdl
ately following the victory. To equal tho
record made by tho Pirates, tho Athletics
must loss 14 moro games In n row.
By losing 14 games In a row tho Mack
men would Bhattor the American Leaguo
record for consecutive defeats and be dan
gerously close to tho world'a record. Eight
games have been lost In a row and as the
American Leaguo record la 20 straight de
feats, mado by Boston In 1910, the Mack
men would pass this mark and be well on
tho way toward Louisville's mark.
Thoro Is llttlo danger of tho Mackmon
losing 14 moro games In a row as tho team
has played far too well to havo tost ns many
as they have. Tho Mackmon havo batted
well and somo cplondld pitching has been
done by Myers, Bush, Shoehan and Na
bors, but tho miserable Adding nnd tho
lack of team play permitted tho pitchers'
good work to go to wants.
Many of tho Mack defeats havo been by
. ono-run margin and In games where tho
collegians havo talllod moro runs than aro
usually needed to win a major leaguo con
test. The breaks will not go to tho oppos
ing teams much longer and tho Mackmon
are likely to break looso with victory almost
any day now.
Lost 134 Games
Not only 13 It unlikely that tho Mackmen
will break tho record for lOBlng games over
a two month stretch but It also Is almost
Imposslblo for them to break tho major
leaguo record for defoats. It has frequently
been claimed that tho major leaguo record
for defeats In a season Is 114 mado by
Pittsburgh In 1890. However, Clovcland,
In .tho National League, lost 134 games In
1899.
To equal this mark the Mackmon would
-.havo to lose 86 of tho 89 games which aro
yet to bo played. It Is possible that tho
Mackmon will shatter the American League
record of 113 defeats, made by Washington
In 1904, but to do this It would bo neces
sary to loso 8G of the 89 games on tho
schedule, which Is not likely.
The two most consistent losing streaks In
the history of the game were made by
Loulsvllla and Pittsburgh In 1889 and 1890,

CHICAGO, July 7. Ilumora were afloat
In Chicago today that a deal shortly may
bo put over which will bring Charley Her

Cubs. According to these rumors Hcrzog Is
tired of his Cincinnati berth and Is desirous
of getting away. Friction with tho Red

cause of Herzog's dissatisfaction.
In the evont the deal goes through the
story runs that Hal Chase will take up the
managerial reins over the Reds.
A bunch of money and a player or two

"Give 'Bean-BalV Victims
Two Bases," Says Johnson
CHICAGO. III., July 7,A new
rule intended to prevent the use. of
the much-discussed "bean ball" may
be promulgated soon if the plan sug
gested by Ban Johnson, president of
the American League, meets with,
favor around the circuit.
"Tho 'bean ball' has been coming
in for moro or less comment and
criticism lately," said Johnson to
day, "and while it is hard to believe
that any player in the game delib
erately would endeavor to injure an
opposing player by the use of such
a delivery yet it is claiemd that
such a condition exists.
"In case it can be shown, I be
lieve the use of the ball can be done
away with by inflicting the double
penalty of giving the batter two
basea instead of one."

Louisville's consecutive losing etreak was

will be approached.
Gumbert Wins
On July 26, 1890, Pittsburgh had won
177 and lost 60 games. On that day Ad
uumbert, later a Phllly star and now ft
prominent politician In Pittsburgh, won n.
Pitching duel from tho famous John Clark
son, of Boston. Qumbert hold Boston to
three hits and the Plratca won, 4 to 3.
The following day Boston defeated tho
Pirates and started them off on n losing
streak, which was not broken until August
" w.h,?n Bl Phillips, making his debut
With Pittsburgh, defeated Chicago, 6 to 4,
holding Anson's sluggers to five hits. This
losing streak was of six games.
Chicago started Pittsburgh on Its way to
a National Leaguo record tho next dny and
23 constcutlva games were lost. On Sep
tember 4 Henderson, a recruit pitcher, won
from Clovcland at Pittsburgh by tho score
or B to l. JThls gavo the Pirates ono vic
tory in 32 games played. They lost tho
J..slx rame3- making two victories out
of 38 games played, which Is the greatest
losing streak In the history of the gamo.
Louisville started Its famous losing streak
at homo on Mny 22 and lost 25 games
i? ft "w before Itnmsey defeated tho
llrowns. Tho Colonels won again on Juno
27, when Ewlhg won a fl to 6 victor' bver
Kansas City In 11 Innings. y
First Local Flog
Hecker Is tho pitcher who six years be
fore made a wild pitch In tho ninth Inning
?h a8.i.i f0 of tho Boasn, permitting
tho Athlotlcs to win tho first pennant ever
won by a local team. Tho Colonels won
tne next threo games, but had established
a mark of only two viptnri in i ...
which Is tho second longest losing streak
In the history of basoball.
Clovolnnd In 1899 had a greater number
of long losing streaks than ny other team
up to that porlod or nlnco, but tho Spiders
olways managed to win two or threo games
In a row after a Ion ntrlntr nt inn
' which enabled them to koep a trlflo above
tne marxs maae by Loulsvllla nnd Pitts
burgh. Tho miserable showing of Clovcland In
1899 was duo to the fact that tho powerful
team of 1898 was transferred to St. Louis.
This move killed tho National Leaguo In
Clovoland, as tho fans resented the trans
fer of Hcldrlck, Burkctt, Young, McKean,
Wallace, Crlger nnd other stars of that fa
mous team.
Tho third longest losing streak was mndo
by tho Red Sox in 1910, when they wcrb
dofcated In 28 out of 30 connccutlvo games.
Tho American Leaguo record of 20 consecu
tive defeats was Included In this run.
Myers' Pltchinp;
Hnd It not been for tho unusual pitching
of Elmer Myers, under a terrific handicap,
It Is likely that tho Mackmen would now
bo close to the record made by tho Pirates
and that It would require only a few moro
defeats to give them an undesirable record.
On June 22 Myers broke the long losing
streak by winning from Washington by tho
score of 4 to 2 and also saved tho gamo
of Juno 26 In Boston, which was won by
tho score of 8 to 5.
In this game Wyckoffand Sheehan wero
batted out of the box by the lied Sox, who
apparently were nbout to stngo a late rally
when Mack sent his" young star Into tho
game. Myers entered the game with tho
bases full and succeeded In pulling out
without damage. Tho Mackmen made an
additional tally in pie ninth Inning, which
clinched the victory.

Making Sensational Catch
By ROBERT
TYHUS RAYMOND COBB wnndcred out
Into centre field yesterday afternoon
to play his first gamo slnco Ban John
son Insisted on clipping' him a threo days'
vacation. Tyrus had been canned, because
ho 'aly throw hl3 bat
Into tho grandstand In
Chicago last Sunday
and slugged a vocifer
ous spectator In St.
Louis n couple of days
boforo, Thoso two
childish pranks failed
to mako n hit with tho
Dig Boss Ban, but tho
hard-working scribes
played It to tho limit
nnd tho Detroit slug
gar was billed as big
as Jack Dillon after
ho busted Frank Mo
ron on tho noso and
other places.
rt. xv. maxwclij
All of which goes to show that Mr. Cobb
was qulto a curiosity, and part of tho crowd
that didn't stay awny from Shlbo Park
was eager and expectant to noto the man
ner In which the gentleman from Georgia
would conduct himself. Patrons In tho
bleachers mada bets among themselves as
to which one would bo tho first to receive a
healthy wallop on tho Jaw nnd they acted
llko an nudlence at a prizefight.
As somo guy remarked 'way back In
1BC0, excitement was Intense. Tho bleacher
bugs shifted nervously In their seats nnd
tho unfortunates In tho front rows sat back
calm and resigned, waiting for tho lrato
Tyrus to jump feot first Into tho stand and
then clean out tho place. Tho soldiers who
participated In the slcgo of Verdun had
nothing on those heroes yesterday after
noon. We were among those present In the two
bit section when Cobb lopod out to his
placo In tho Hold. IIo did not seem fero
cious; on the contrary, ho woro a beaming
Bmllo Instead of a dark scowl and waved
his hand In a friendly manner to tho quarter
critics. This mado tho porsons In tho
front row feel better, but their Joy suddenly
was turned to gloom when a loud-mouthed
rooter In tho upper row shouted!
"Well, well, well! Look what Is with
us! Why, hollo there, sorehead! When
AS AN ERRATIC BALL TEAM,
THE GIANTS' TAKE THE FLAG
By GRANTLAND RICE
THIS has been a tough season for tho
Winning Streakers. The Giants first won
17 straight nnd then ran this up to 10 out
of 21. Slnco that spurt they proceeded to
drop from second to sixth place by logins
bomeshlng- like 20 out of 30 games. Then
followed the Tigers. They sailed out from
sixth place to a tie for the top by winning
16 out of 17 starts. In tho wake of which
they lost no great time In flopping back
Into the second division.
The Erratic Title
The title for erratic play must be award
ed to the Giants beyond any ball club of the
last 20 years. Observe the threa sections
of their 1010 campaign:
April 12 to May 8 Won 2 and lost 13;
percentage, .133.
May 8 to June 2 Won 19 and lost 2 ; per
centage .905.
June 2 to July 6 Won 9 and lost 19 ; per
centage, .321,
Hero Is a shift from ,133 to ,905 and
from .906 back to .321, each Involving con
siderable periods of play. If this doesn't
land the erratic title with Detroit only a
shade behind wo await further details.
Jackson's Rush
Joe Jackson last season dropped to .308.
This season for a month he was around .250,
The Human Eye Is always focused upon
any one who starts to slip. But the Butting
Eye, once established, Isn't easy to dislodge.
Since the middle of May Jackson has been
hitting the ball harder than any man In the
game. He has come from .260 to ,376 In two
months, which has called for a streak bet
ter than a .400 average.
Jackson will be 29 years old on the 16th
of this month. He started with Greenville
In the Carolina Association eight years ago,
his debut mark being ,346. He has never
been under ,300 since and has only been
belqw ,360 twice. As for 1916, Cobb and
Speaker will need all they can carry to beat
him out.

Why then shouldn't Dillon havo a chance

did you get out? Whon aro you goln' to
quit playln'7"
A Bhudder ran through tho patrons In
tho front row ns thoso cutting remarks
crashed ngalnst tho ears of tho Terrible
Tyrus. Tho crucial moment was at hand.
Which part of the stand would ho attack
flrst7 Bravo men trembled ns they waited
In suspenso to noto tho effect of thoso unkind
words.
Mr. Cobb, however, bore his honors grace
fully. Ho received tho verbal bouquet with
a nmilo nnd doffed his cap. Then he played
bo mo basoball.
A pair of gentlemen sitting behind us
heaved a couplo of slgh3 of r.ollet and ono
rcmnrkod:
"You see. this horo Cobb ain't such a
bad toiler after all. Ho ain't goln' nroun'
lookln' fer trouble. Ho worries a lot. ho
does. Yah seo, he's terrible Jealous. Oh,
yes, he's awful Jealous. This hero Jrckson
and Spenker gets his goat somotlmis fierce
because they's hlttln' th' bait and bo ain't
doln' nothln'. Why, do you know, ho ain't
lookod at no newspnpor fer weeks! No, sir!
Ho dassn't see what thoso other guys Is
doln' becauoo when ho finds them battln'
better 'en him, ho gets nn awful grouch on
nnd busts somebody In th" nose, or some.
thin'. Yuh gotta be careful and don't say
nothln. Then ho won't do nothln. I know
Ty. all right, all right. He's a. swell feller."
Whether they know It or not. that was
tho truo feelings of tho bugs. They ad
mired Cobb, nnd their admiration was so
great that they refused to "ride" him.
After tho opening remarks, not a single
harsh word was hurled nt tho visitor. Ho
was applauded every time ho went to bat
I and his work In the field was cheered as
it snouia navo oeen. in the ninth Inning,
when ho mado a sensational catch of Lar
ry's liner and robbed the veteran of a
suro three-bagger, the fans arose to their
feet and yelled as heartily as If ono of
tho home players had pulled the play and
saved tho gamo.
Tyrus neod have no fear of the Phila
delphia fans. They aro an fair as any
bunch of rooters In tho country nnd they
Bhowcd It yesterday. They appreciate good
playing whether It Is done by the home
team or not and a star llko Cobb will
receive all of tho homago duo him. The
Southerner left the field a hero and ho
will continue to be one as long as he plays
hero.
100 pounds In weight would bo great stuff
for comedy, but no great boost for sport.
For a ball club down In seventh placo, It
Is peculiar how few rivals look forward to
meeting Fielder Jones' Browns.

The White Sox Outlook
If Chicago's American League entry can
get safely by this Eastern trip without be
ing badly dumped It has a first-class chance
to give tho Old Roman his first flag in 10
years since 1906.
The White Sox havo tho punch, the pitch
ing and the speed. They were away to a
moth-eaten start through erratic pitching
and tho light batting of Collins, Fournter
and, for a time, Joe Jackson. But the wal
lop Is now beginning to pop put again, and
for the last month the Sor, with the Yanks,
have been playing the fastest ball In the
