We are not recalling the davs of Delahanty or anything like that, but Just a few 'years back. Last year on the Phillies' grounds Klsher, thi Pitts burgh catcher, made two homefuiis off Alexander In a game, and It happened about this time of the year. If any one Is to be blanied for the de feat It la necessary to drag in the name of Claude Davidson, the kid second base. man. Claude fell asleep In the eighth, and virtually gave the White Sox a! run. Weaver was on first and lllsberg bunted down tho first oase line. Burns, and Gregg came In for the ball and Davidson, Instead of covering first, as sumed the role of spectator and watched the proceedings. As a result the Swede , was safe and two men were on base in-' stead of one. Both men tcured later on.
