Improved Mack Team There's n dlfferenco between this team of 191l A'm and the 1 no vvhlrli I'onnle led around the Hmilt laet year. Hoston saw a. i example of It yenterday. it came after t'te ipieftlonabhi derision nf the two umpires on Shannon's toueh-out of StulTy Mc-Innls in tin- ninth Inning. Just before Kverett SVotfs phony single chased nurosi. Stuffy with the one and only tun of the afternoon N"ow Shannon. Dug.m and rjaulner. to, say nothing of the entile Athletics' outfit , and most of '-o writers In the press box as well as the apectators In tho grand' stand near tho war urea, were positive ' that Shannon hart touched Mcltinls bo-, fore tho latter reached sanctuary at the hot corner. Thtro ensued a real nrgument. more lll;o the i-ort the Hed Sox the.rnelves put up ln a tight plnce; mo'o lllte tho, Ura.cji the (Hants and the Y Ito Sox, lalso when things go gainst litem. Hube Aroused c'onnlo would say nothing against tho I umpires when be was cpilzaed this morn ing That la not t'onnle's way. but Cap tain Hube Oldrlng tvas as hot as ho could bo without melting. "All we'ro waiting for now Is a rliance to get nt them this afternoon," fcald Old ling. "Let mo tell 5 on roniethltig, tVo would not swap our team for the Ited Sox right now." Of courhe. Shannon did not make tho light play when he set hall to touch Stuffy. The play was right In front of Maurice and ho should have thrown )ho ball to tlardner. The 'ilea of all thtse lundowns Is to save all the time possible, because the batter Is meanwhile running unheeded In the general direction of the home plate. Hut It does seem as if everything were breaking against tho Mackinen when It comes to umpiring. They lost another one yesterday, when t'mplre Connolly failed to see Have Hhenn drop a thrown ball at second base, as Joe Dugan slid into tho bag. Hitting Lightly So far the A'n have made but five hits In two games, but long distance In formation of this statistical sort often Is misleading. So It is in this Instance Tho A'n did not murder or otherwise maltreat the slants of the beanball ar tist Mays, but they often hit them haid, but always at some one.
