POLLOCK PREDICTIONS by baseball critics received n fino lnclng yesterday afternoon when our Phils upset the well-known tlopo once again. They lost, of course. Fact l they lent twice and thus enabled the Giants to get n new grip on first place, but that Is nothing startling, for, defeats come dally. The surprise of the season was the speed exhibited by the Coombsmen on the Bases. Every writer nnd I'hllllo rooter 'admitted .that our athletes arc too slowvof foot to sprint into n pen nant, hut yesterday they were regular Ty Cobbs and swiped sacks with such ogillly that the (Hants didn't even at' tempt to stop 'cm. Imagine such dashing demons as Fred Ludcrus, Gavvy Cravath nnd Forrest Cndy, not to mention Eddie bicKins, pilfering two bags each all in one after noon. Better thau that nit in one "game. ' Itetter than that nil iu one Inning. The Thlls will have to dig up a new excute for dropping .the pennant (It Is generally conceded that the Coombsmen now are almost out of the running.) No longer can they say thc.Vj are not fast enough. ' The Phils stole recklessly and swiped their way into threo runs. Fred I.uderus first showed contempt for Cuban Gon zales's nrm by pilfering second and third. Sicking nnd Cndy followed with the same trick, nnd even Gavvy Cra vath, who never has anil never will win a medal for sprinting even in a fat men's race, accomplished the feat. Jt was in the ninth inning of the first game, the Phils being eight runs . behind when the stealing started nnd nobody enrcd. Giants First Again THE Giants were in a fighting mood yesterday, and they .went nftcr runs in I a vicious manner. They had been ousted from first place by the Kcds on Sunday and they were out to" regain the top rung, which accounts for the 10-0 nnd 7-2 victories hung up by the Mc Grnw clan.- The Ginnts hold first over the Iteds now by a margin of .010. The Gotham Giants walked all over Gene Packard, Frank Woodward and Put Murray, who' were led to, the slaughter by Coombs in the first en gagement. Eighteen hits were com piled by the run-thirsty Stonehnm la borers. Packard yielded six of these, Woodward six and Murray six. Mur ray, the Notre pame SDuthpaw, yielded only three runs in four Innings, which is great work for a Phil pitcher. For nine innings Brndley Hogg hurled great ball against the McGraw gang in the second game nnd then he blew, and when he blew it was SOME WIND. He permitted only five hits in nine in nings and should have won in the regu lation distance. Up to the tenth the Phils had earned vo rtlns 'and the Giants only one. But, oh, boys! how the Giants did punish tbe.Atlnntn lawyer in the tenth. After getting nwny to a good start by fnnnlng Burns, Bradley got into a jam when lie walked Boss Youits. That started it and it-finished after five runs Mnil heen made nn n rlnuMn fnm otnt.ln.. Lf wl n onnrrttinn fl . UDU tt RUI.lttll.1; J A's Stmt West THE ,A's left Boston last night for their second invasion of the West after dropping four out of six games to the Bed Sor. On their last trip around tlio- other end of the circuit the Mackmen landed only two contests out of eleyen. Seventeen,' games arc slated f6r the A's against the western clubs, starting with Chicago' tomorrow. Fourteen of these are regular scheduled contests. the other three being games postponed from the last trip. The Mackmen should be able to gather more than two decisions thls'-.time. More power to you, Connie. The lied Sox grabbed both games in Boston yesterday. Jack' Naylor wis hit only six times in the first engage j,ment, but lost, 2 to 0, to Sam Jones, who allowed only four, safeties.

Cravath Named Manager of Phils Continued From raiso Ono the faithful efforts of the veteran have been appreciated. lie has been giien the highest position on the ball club, nnd, nlthough he will have tough sail ing for time, he will pull through. .The Phils arc not in the best of shnpe nt present. They have made the worst showing of any Philadelphia club in history, losing twenty-four of the lafc twenty-nine games. Coombs worked hard and unceasingly, but for some rea son did not get results. C'oomus Popular f Jack Coombs leaves the club as one 6f the most popular managers it ever has had. He lmsn't a single enemy. Kverj- man is proud to call him his friend. The players worked hard for lilm, did their best in every game, but the best apparently was not good enough. Piesideut llakcr appointed Coomba last winter after Pat JMoran hnd been released. Ciombs was named because he looked like a wonderful manager and n close btudent of baseball. It may be thut Mr. Haker made a mistake and again he may not.
