NEW YORK GROUNDS
Ed Sweeney of the Highlanders
thinks ono catcher Is not enough to
backstop n gamo In tho New York
American leaguo grounds. Ho wants a
second catcher to hover nbove tho
stands In a balloon to watch for foul
flies, no Is needed, Sweeney says, to
get them when tho wind Is whistling

HARD ON CATCHERS
Ed, "I'll bo running for a foul on that
field and tho wind will carry the ball
to tho contcr fielder."
Oscar Stanago of Dotrolt Is with
Bwconoy thoro. On tho first trip cast
this year Gardner hit n high pop that
nppenred to bo foul. It wns foul till
It got nbove the stands and then tho
I J U It .....a
Unexpected Move by Either McGraw
or Stahl at Crucial Moment Likely to
Win Championship For the Team.
Former Best Baieball General.
Ry TOMMY CLAKK.
Red hot nrgumcnts are now In order
over the outcome of tho world's se
ries. As usual In such cases, It Is very
dilllcult to find two men who ngreo on
the result. Pnrtlsnns of both teams
cannot sec how their favorites can lose.
It Is Interesting to follow the line of
dope those not directly interested In
either team hand out.
Of course there Is nlwnys a likeli
hood of sentiment Influencing Judg
ment as much ns ever, although
strnlghter dope seems to be offered
this year than ever before. According
to the table of percentage the Bostons
nre n stronger team this year than the
Athletics were Inst. That should give
them tho edge In the nrgument, but It
is good betting that the dopesters
with New York affiliations will be able
to prove that the Giants nre far strong
er this year than they were last, and
the chances nre that outside of Ma
thewson they nre, but Tcsreau, who
was the Giants' savior when Marquard
broke down in midseason, may bo nble
to take the place of "Big Six."
While discussing the strength of tho
Boston nnd New York club, a compari
son of the individuals of the two teams
Is very Interesting. Catchers Mey
ers nnd Wilson of the Glnnts hnvo an
edge on Carrigan, Cady nnd Nunamak
cr of the Red Sox. The former two
are better peggers nnd bntsmcn than
the Boston trio. Cnrrlgan's nrm Is not
ns good as it used to be, but ho lins n
grent baseball head. Cndy has not
had much experience, while Nuna
mnkcr Is slow. The Glnnts have tho
better Infield. Mcrklo nt first base is
a better nil around mnn thnn Stahl.
Doyle nt second base puts it all over
Yerkes of the Sox. At short Wngner
of Boston is stendler thnn Fletcher of
the Glnnts. It's n tossup between Her
zog of the Glnnts and Gardner of the
Sox nt third.
In the outfield Speaker, Lewis and
noopor of the Red Sox outclnss Mur
ray. Devore nnd Snodgrass of the
Giants In every way. In the pitching
department Boston hns the edge. The
Sox have five good ones In Wood, Be
dlent. Hall. O'Brien and Collins, while
the Giants will hnvo to depend on Mn
thowson, Tesrenu, Wlltse, Mnrqunrd
nnd Crnndall. The writer wishes to go
on record ns saying thnt Matty nnd
Tesrenu will prove equnl to the tnsk
of stopping the speed boj-s desptto the
fnct that Manager Stahl intends to use
Joe Wood ill three of the games, If pos
sible. Tesrenu has been twirling grent
ball of late, and "Big Six" will be nble
to hold up his end ns usual, even
though he hns been in harness many
years. I bellevo thnt in Tesrenu the
Box will run up against n big snag, one
thnt will prove to be their undoing.
Tho Sox have the best bunch of hit
ters nnd hnvo n much better fielding
club than the Giants, but the latter hns
the best bnse runnqrs nnd are more
aggressive thnn tho Sox.
Granting that the Red Sox have the
better pitching staff, tho classier out
field nnd tho hotter batting nnd de
fensive nggregntlon, there is one big
ndvantugo thnt the Glnnts have, nnd
thnt is the managerial side.
Muny timus during tho series Johnny
McGraw and Jako Stahl will match
their wits and baseball knowledge.
The winner of tho world's tltlo may
depend upon -which leader is tho more
clover baseball general. History tells
us thnt tho world's honors hnvo been
decided before by the sudden shifting
of one player 'nt n crucial moment In
an important battle. Once a team Is
thrown off Its balanco when things
nre apparently going Its wny its stead
iness can seldom bo restored. Then
the other team sweeps through the
balanco of the series.
Thero Is no quicker thinker in base
ball than Johnny McGraw. He is al
ways thero on tho coaching lino, ready
to tako advantago of mi opportunity
to win. He has shown tills mnny
times by clover jockeying of men when
a sltuntlon looked hopeless and hns
pulled his team out n winner.
He Is one of the greatest manngers
In the history of tho game. Ho will
force his players to overcomo any nat
ural handicap under which they may
:abor during tho series.
With all dio respect to Stahl nnd tho
mnnner In which ho handled the Sox
this season, it must bo stated that ho
hns yet to provo tho equnl of tho Glnnts'
lender.
Pitcher Wood Uses Few Curves.
ritcher Joo Wood hns rellod on
speed, control nnd support for his ro
cent victories. Ho doesn't uso his
curvo unless ho has to.
Lewie Always on the Job.
Outfielder Duffy Lowls of tho Boston
Red Sox hns not missed a gnmo or nn
inning In any gnmo this season.
Catcher Wilson Great Thrower.
Arthur Wilson of tho Glnnts is ono
of the grentest throwing catchers In
tho business.
After winning two world's cham
pionships with nn outfield which really
never possessd major league class,
Connlo Mack has finally como to tho
conclusion that ho will havo to Im
prove this department of his team If
Ka orrwia tn Ita a onntanriar In fiitttra
campaigns. So long ns ho had Danny
Murphy In tho game his hitting mndo
up for tho shortcomings of tho other
fleldors on tho team, but with tho In
Jury to Murphy Mack found hlmsolf
with n great Infield, some good pitch-
