SOUTHPAWS ARE
DOING GREAT WORK
Giants' Left-Handers Have
Won Half of Games to
Credit of Team
EPPA RIXEY IS DOING WELL
The left-handed pitcher Is playing- a
leading role In the major league races
this season. Ite Is enjoying as mutfh prom
inence today as the right-hander', for tho
part he has taken In keeping tho pennant
contending teams In front cannot bo un
derestimated. According to recent aeragcs Schupp. Hen
ton and Sallee, of the pace-making Giants,
are credited with thirty victories, which
Is half of the total games won My the New
York club to date. Eppa lllxey, of the
Phillies, has won eleven games and lost the
same number.
Southpaws, as a rule, do not play such
a conspicuous part In fattening percent
age, nor do they comprlbo half of n pitch
ing stafT. as ln the case of tho New York
club until Al Dcmaree was secured from
the Cubs. Demareo, with Tesreau, Perritt
and Anderson, has placed the right-handers
ln tho majority.
Babe Ruth, Leonard and Pennock. of tho
Red Sox, have played a heavy part In keep
ing Boston In the running. This trio has
won thirty-odd games, as against twenty
two for Shore, Mays and Foster, Boston's
right-handers.
Keb- Ilussell Is one of tho most valuable
pitchers on tho White Sox staff, ranklns
tccond only to Kddle Clcotte In the mattel
of effectiveness.
