CONNIE MACK THINKS HIS TEAM
OF YOUNG PL A YERS IS DUE TO
VAC A TE BASEMENT THIS SEASON
WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND
By IIOBEKT V. MAXWELL
Kporti Killtor Etrnlng I'tiblle tjUrr
lnke Ctmrlrs, March 14.
CONNIE MACK i speinllng an eujoynblc spring down
here and has allowed his usual stem grim couTitennnce
to relax Into a smile. In (act. he Is developing wrinkles
around the eyes Instead of over them. He is fccrcne nnd
happy, for he hag an idea that the old cellar will be
vacated this season and his ball club will be out in the
open making things Interesting (or the other pennant
contenders.
For six years, the Athletics were unable to finish first
In the American League because they were stymied by the
seren other clubs. They made history, however, broke
world's records, and their deeds of daring con be found In
the six best cellars published by the league from 1015 to
1020 inclusive.
Strange as it may seem, the public still has confidence
In Connie Stack. True, he finished last six times, but it
also must be remembered that he finished first six times.
Sort of a fifty-fifty proposition as 'twere. No other man
ager has been able to pull that stunt. Pennants are shoo
polish for Connie. He either was shining at the hend or
at the foot.
His ball club this year is one which might cause some
trouble. By that I mean it should win more games than
last year and probably climb out of eighth place. It Is
doubtful if it staggers into the first division, but every
body will he satisfied in Philadelphia If it plays such h
dashing, daring game of ball that it comes under the wire
a snappy six or seventh. Nothing could be fairer than
tnat.
T fS necessary tn let one' imagination tun loose
tchen doping out the chances of the 1021 edilinn
of the Athletics. This is 6rrnur the same ball club
ehich finished last in 1920 will start the 1921 dcrbv.
Therefore, it can he argued that there can be tin im
prorement, and lor that reason, no hope for the
earning year.
Why Connie Smiles
v TDl'T Connie thinks differently and that's the reason he
V JD lg wearing the sunny smile.
"I have a young ball club." he said, "and it is im-
proving every year. Since 101." I have been experimenting,
trying out hundreds of players nnd trying to get together
tf'whit I believe, to be a winning combination. I did this
't because it was necessary to build from the bottom. 1
Jv could have purchased old players, but in that case, 1 would
1' have had to begin all over agnin in a couple of years.
J, Therefore, 1 made up my mind to get a young ball club
which could stick together for some years, and I believe I
- have, almost done it.
"" "By that I mean 1 have some pretty good ball players
and Instead of having seven or fight weak positions to
-; fill, this year 1 have but two. Perhaps I might have to
find stronger men for shortstop nnd first base, but tln
other positions are well taken care of. .Toe Dugan is the
V best third baseman in the league, .lirnniy Dykes is a
corking second sneker and Tilly and Frank Walker and
. Welih are high -class outfielders. The pitching staff Is
j, one of the best 1 ever have had nnd Perkins is a sweet
'i catcher.
"When you figure it out, you will find that the Ameri
can League is shy of young ball players. There hasn't
been a youngster of prominence break into the league
lince George SNler .lint figure it out for yourself and
4 you will find that t ntu right. The older players are
' getting older every year and periiaps not so effective. They
most crack some time, nnd when they do. the young hall
' elnb will step out in front.
',' "The White Sox are in bud shapp this season and I
" rn't see where any of the other clubs have been
' strengthened materially with the exception of the
Yankees. We have n good chance to ilo something, and
unless I miss my guess, we will have a mighty interesting
ball club.
"My youngsters are showing more confidence this year.
' are playing better ball and look more like finished players
'- The days of experimenting are over for me. but T will not
3" overlook an opportunity to get the beet player" on the
i. market."
tutor has been in his ihetl, working quietly toiraid
one certain thing, took n lot of abuse, nnd slams in
silence and labored harder and more faithfully than
an) other manager in the. big leagues. To hear him
ay that the outlook is brighter tnrnnj a whole lot,
Connie seldom orates through his Mackin,
Good Flinging Staff
BUT tU is the first year since I have been coming down
south that Mack virtually is ntanding pat on his team
of the year before. In the past he shipped players below
the Mason and Dixon line by the carload, and once the
squad numbered forty-five men. In seven years, manning
from 101(5 to date, lie has tried out 1i!8 players, nnd of
thin number only thirty remain. That Is the siie of the
preet squad.
The pitching staff Impressed me most after watching
the practice for a week. To my mind, the Athletics hove
the best balnnced bunch of (lingers In the league, nnd
many clubs will be surprised. It is the same as last year,
but the hoys have had a year's experience under their
belts.
Ktl riommell, twenty-three years old, should be a star.
This kid has Improved wonderfully nnd has developed a
knuckle ball which is said to he more effective than the
one used by Cicotte. He did well last year, but Is better
than that now. Rtillie Naylor, Scott Perry, Bryan Hnrrls,
Bob Hasty, Dave Keefe, Boy Moore, Lyle Blgby and
"Slim" Sloppy ore the left-overa from lost year, and nre
in excellent condition. Charlie Eckcrt, a Philadelphia
semi-pro. ; Heimach. of Camden, N. .7. ; Barrett, of
Cambridge. Mass.. nnd Wilbur Bay. of Stillwater. Okla..
are the recruits, but Kckert is the only one who will
survive the training trip.
Ivy Griffin Is playing first; Dykes, second: Onllowny,
short; Dugan, third; Tilly Walker, left, field; Frnnk
Walker, center field, and Welsh, right field. In addition.
Connie has Frank Braxill, McCann, Shannon and Witt ns
infielders, and Myaft and n kid named Johnson, from
Worcester. Masa.. to sit in when the outfield goes floole.

Connie Mack is rate indeed.

For jcort the tall
PEHKIS'S ii regaided as one of the best
catchers in the league, and icill take care of most
of the ipork behind the plate. He trill be assisted
hu Johnny "Walker nnd Itilt Styles, youngsters irho
iceie irith the club last year, hut sent out for further
polishing,
Braziirs Good Record
IT IS possible that Brailll will he tried at first base. This
youug man is but twenty-one years, but has had quite a
career He was picked up by Brooklyn in 1010 and
farmed to Hartford, where he led the league in hitting.
In midseason he wns shipped to Winnipeg, where lie
finished first in that circuit. Last year he was tried out
by Connie Mack and nt the end of the training trip was
left in Atlanta He was there n couple of months and
wns the champion batter of the Southern Association.
Vear the end of the year he was sent to St. Paul, where
he led that league.
Quite a record for a youngster, nnd Connie intends to
use him this season. He has a grand average of about
.340. which Is good in any circuit.
Brazil! played first base for Brooklyn in the training
trip games in 1010 and did very well. Since then he has
been working at second and third. He has the earmarks
of a Jtar and might born into the line-up of the
Athletics.
What this ball club needs more than anything else i
confidence. So mnny games have been lost 'nnd the team
has finished in last place so many times, that it is pos
sible that the plnyers have lost the old fight and will go
into the race with the idea of taking a beating and do the
high dive.
THE playets are here, the tnanayer ii one of the
most efficient in the business, and it looks o if
it teas up to the irell-knoirn ttrini psychology
and morale to pull the team out of the mud.
Cnpiiioht, Hit. by Public l.nfoer To,
"MtN
ANY a dusty bag of golf clubs has
II D. Herring and S. K
mil in nction these last few days.
I Saturday was a regular gala day at
i the clubs, for Instunce. Anybody wnn
1 dcring nvcrcoatlcss along the roads
might have thought he was witnessing
sonic inside stuff nt some of the south
ern spring training camps, for play nt
, some of the clubs wns actually held
so clogged were the courses with
I TT of the two ucorges nisier nna
i ltutli. And. inasmuch as they promise
to be the two foremost llgurea in tne
rnnlm of swat this season', n comparison
of their Inst records might not be
niniss.
In the way of total bnscs, for ex
ample, you may not have known that
Sisler IflHt season led Ituth by .11)0 to
!t,S8. and this In spite of the fact that
Buth gathered 210 bases by his home
runs alone.
Buth led in home runs by. Hi to 10.
But Sisler led in thre-baso hits by a
span of 18 to 0 and in doubles by 40
to 3tt.
Two Peculiar Feature
S1SLEB, with 10 home runs nnd 40
doubles, "was quite a slugger on his
own hook, yet rival pitchers fanned him
but 10 times, while they hooked Buth
for P0.
A still more peculiar feature Is thnt
while pitchers walked Buth 148 times
they oulylssucil 40 passes to Sisler.
Speaker drew 07 passes, many of them
intentional walks.
.lust why pitchers refused to walk
Sisler. when he was capable of batting
,407. n hard, dangerous hitter in n
pinch, is one of the mysteries of the
yenr.
Sisler wns a harder, more dangerous
hitter thnn Speaker, yet Speaker wns
walked more than twice as often,
Scoring Values
. rpHKBE used to be nn old slogan to
1 - tins effect A base on balls is as
J good as a hit."
This seems to have been proved in
the case of Sisler nnd Buth.
! Sisler. with 2T7 base hits nnd 40
pnsHcs, scored 137 runs.
' Buth. with 172 base hits and 14S
passes, scored 158 runs. One statls
; tician has figured it nut that Buth won
i 11 gnmes by his home juns nnd 13
game by his 148 passes. Which in
about the correct ratio.
