In other words. 11 pitcher remains a pitcher, whether he Is batting 01 not The best thine n dinger docs is take three swings nnd sit down. This is mhIi n common occurrence that last year, when a wave of patriotism swept mcr the conntrj, rule almost passed to tack American Digs at the end of the hurlers' bats. This would have been a big number, because the batter could wne his flag three times before stepping out of the picture. However, the grandnldopc occasinnnlij becomes nil fussed up, as wns tlie case here yesterday. A person named Mod I'ller, who evidently is called Hod because he never carried one. forgot he was a pitilier or anything even resembling a pitcher for one brief instant ami what he did to n pair of ball games was n shame Leaning against one of .less Unmet' most tempting offerings, he busted it on the bceer and the b.ill hasn't tome back et. It tailed Into the left field stands two i miners scored ami Hod carried in the third marker himself. Barnes grew (areless when Hller faced liim in that fatal inning Two aliens had been expunged anil the net two leached b,ise snfelv Mod swung his bat carelesslj. took two strikes and waited patiently for the next one to come over bo he could cnll it a dn and go back and pitch Hames had the earn Idea, but forgot swift pitching could be used on pitchers. So he lazily lobbed one over the plate, shoulder, high, with nothing on it but the cover. Eller took a toe hold, closed his eyes, swung with all his might and knocked that pill out of the park. , WHAT circuit elot won both ball games. It pieced Jess Barne on the skids and shook the confidence the AVtc Vorfc player) had in him. They didn't dream of loving with Jess on the mound. In the second game they still iere worrying about it and allotted themselves to be whitewashed It him n touah day in the Urnnx. Neiv York Admits Giants Have Cracked A IjL Is quiet asd-sercne in New Yoik todn. The faithful fans- faithful when the home club is winning nre reconciled to their fate and will admit that the Giants have cracked, the) rtcer will win the pennant, and with that off their minds thev have no further interest in the race The -10,000 customers again flocked Into the Folo (rounds to have n look, because of the double .victory on Thursday Thej seemed veiy much excited In the first game when there was a chance to tie the score and hurled empty pop bottles at Sherry Magee and Ncalc when they were catching flv balls. ifhe only toft thing about a bottle these dnys Is the stuff they put in them and that had been removed before the throwing contest began. Magee was crowned on the bean and bis scalp was cut. Slierrv then wore a sponge In his cap to soften the blows. In the second battle. howeer, the fans lay down and expired Not a peep was beard out of them, although a few cheered oiifcrnuslj for Cincinnati when It wns a cinch that the Heds would win. That grnnd and glorious pair of victories mean n big thing to Pat Moran. The runners-up have been Hmeared all over the place, trimmed four times out of six, and as a result the plnyers have so much confidence that they could go out and lick four or five teams on the same afternoon. New York was expected to put up a great battle and the men were nil keyed up for it. They also were playing on the home grounds, before a friendly audience nnd It looked like a walkover. The Reds, however, played better basball, did better' hitting and never quit fighting They showed a true, aggressive spirit and It looks now as if they had the pennant cinched JUIcGRAW hain't much of a chance. His infield m all shot and it " tciI take time to rebuild it. Hal Chase performed miserably in the series and was taken out twice in fit or o n pinch hitter. Doyle u through, Fletcher it itobbly, and Heme the 'Aim it the only one in the bunch who shoirs stuns of life. The old boys are about done. Jess Barnes's Streak Ruined rpiIEKE was plenty of excitement in the first game First, the Iteds fell upon Barnes and eased a run over the plate, which was not at nil according to the dope. Then the (Jiants got busy nnd, aided by Billy Kopf's weird heave to Daubert on Buiiis'r grounder, tied the count It was one-all until the fourth when Eller hnd to gum up the works with his homer. Two had perished before this act wns put on, and Magee had singled. WIngo was considered too dnngerous to be allowed to hit and was purposely passed. Then Barnes's winning streak of ten straight was smashed to smithereens nnd he suffered keenlj. Eller had a tough time of it in the seventh, but only two runs were scored. Knuff singled and scored on (lonznles's two-base wallop. Burns brought iu the Cuban with a hit to left. Pep Young lifted a high fly to Magee "and it was then that Sherry received his first bottle shower. Inyhe eighth, with runners on first and third and two out, McCarty lifted another high one to left and Sherry was crowned. Nice sportsmanship in New York. Rube Benton pitched a whale of a gnme in the final, save for one Inning In the first five frames he did not allow n safe blow nnd the only man to reach first was on an error bj Chase. He seemed nil set to hurl a no-hit battle and probably would hate done that ery thing hnd the sixth inning been eliminated. In that stanza, Rube was hammered unmercifully nnd, strange as It may seem, the dirty work wns started by .Ray Fisher, the opposing pitcher. tX nEMEHBERIXO Hod Ellei. Ren ton considered Ray a dargerous clouter and pitched him four wide balls. That started something, for he next four batters hit safely and three counters were chalked up. iThose four his were the only ones Cincinnati made in the game. Groh Best Third Baseman in World rpHE Reds are hustling these dajs and should keep out In front until the " close. Five members of the pitching staff, Sallee, Iluether, Eller, Fisher and Ring, are going good and they are enough to win the flag. In addition, Eddie Uerner and Lunue can turn in a few xictories, and Itube Bressler will be a big help when he gets into nnpe The outfield is fair, but the infield just scintillates. Groh is the best third baseman In the world, Kopf is a steady shortstop. Ilath Is an aggressive, sure-tielding second baseman, and Jake Daubert at first base looks as good as he did five years ago. Itariden and WIngo nre high-class, brainy catchers and are a big help to the pitchers. If Moran's team cracks, It will be in the outfield, and he already is signing youngsters to fill in. But where Cincinnati shines is in plnying smart baseball. Every man knows what to do on everj pluy and there is no fooling. Three .times sacrifice hits failed because the plaj wns made on the runner at second. Another time a force-out wns made at third when there didn't seem o be a chance to make the play. The brains.
