BIRDIE CREE IDOL OF FANS Three-Base-Hit Kid - Popular In New York for His Hard Slugging and Clever Fielding. Hardly a day passes but Birdie Cree gets more popular than ever, with the New York fans. Some of the fans on the hill call Cree the “Three-Base-Hit Kid.” That is not a bad title for the Birdle Cree. forest expert. For a little fellow La joie doesn’t hit them any harder than Cree. When a hit is needed in the pinch, why, let Cree do it, and he does. Taking him on his present form he looks to be as good as any outflelder in the business and that doesn’t bar any one. He hits, runs bases, and has the arm with the good fielding, so he has- n't any weaknesses. What 18 more, he is getting. to be a difficult batter to pitch to. He will hit them in left fleld, and then hit them in right. He can smash the ball down right fleld harder than any in the business. Cree’s batting eye has been sprouting since the season opened. It's getting so with him that the base hit column looks strange when he hasn’t twa marked up alongside of his name. Taken as a whole Cree is a finish. ed outfielder right now. Not alone in New York have the fans been loud in their praise of Cree, but in th& other eastern cities in which he has been playing his grand game. Pirates Make Record. The box score of the Pittsburg-New York game the other day shows that the Pirates hung up a total of 28 as- sists for the day—one more than the total number of putouts. This is a world’s record for major league baseball. Twenty-seven assists were made a couple of weeks ago, but 28 were never made before. This record was made possible by the fact that Pitcher Hendrix kept the Glants from sending the ball out of the infleld. Not a putout was regis- tered by the Pittaburg outfielders. Taylor Refuses to Sell. John I. Taylor turned down ag af. of $10,000 for Charlie Wagner from m Dufty, but wi he ocould get Wi one or | dollar in a public bank.
