RUBE BrtESSLEH, of Cincinnati, the
former Athletic pitcher, is credited
with winning seen games and losing
one in the official averages, which In
elude games played last Wednesday.
Bressler has show n remarkable Improve
ment In all branches of the game. He Is
hitting well, fielding his position In
good st 1ft and has learned to use hla
head, something he neer did while at
Shine Park.
Bressler tops the pitchers In the Na
tional League who are still playing.
Harl Hamilton Is credited with winnlnr

SCHELLENBACH, of the White Sox,
Is the leading pitcher In the Ameri

same club to join the colors. Schcllen
bach's pitching has been a big sensation
and he Is getting better eery game he
twirls. .
Thormahlen, of the Tankees. alio Is
going at a fast clip. He has been the
mainstay of Miller Hugglns's men in the
box, and If he continues at the present
clip the Tanks are going to make It
hot for any club In Ban Johnson's cir
cuit. Joe Bush, of the B.ed Sox, has won
