The Yankees, leading the St, Louis | Browns by three and a half games | need but a single victory to} reap all uncertainty of the outcothe of the race, Should they win today, | but lose all the rest of their three games, while the Browns capture all | three games yet on their schedule | the final standings would be: | | Team L Pet.

This honor usually is decided on rqsults attained, Such being the case you can’t overlook Eddie Rommel of the Ath- letics. With a club that has been seventh or eighth most of the year Rommel has a great chance to win 25 games. He already has 23 to his credit. Rommel is a pitcher who, perhaps, doesn’t impress the average specta- Tn, ROMEL. tor, simply because he does no one particular thing that makes him stand out, When a pitches has great speed, that naturally impressed the fans, If he has a big, sweeping curve, it makes them talk. Rommel is noted for his knuckle ball. It is more difficult to hit than curves or speed, but docs not-im- press the fan, simply because it is thrown without muchh seed, It drifts | lazily, to the plate, wobbling hither and thither on its up, Rommel is a great pitcher. He has good speed, which he uses only rarely. He tries to make the bats- -men hit bad balls, He attempts to make them swing at his curve o| wave at the slow ball or knuckle fooler, Now for ‘Rommel’s forte. If the| batsman refused ty bite at bad balls, and gets Rommel into a hole, he can come over with“his fast one. Great \control, a most necdssary asset for every pitcher, belongs to Rommel. When it is. necessary to get them over he invariably delivers. In addition to his ability to pitch, Rommel is a great’ fielder, There are five“men on the infield when he is working on the rubber.

A year brings about come funny changes in baseball. kees were coming down the home stretch, Carl Mays and: Waite Hoyt were carrying the burden of the pitching, Mays finished the season of 1921 with 27 victories, Hoyt with 19, New York, in order to win the American League gennant registerel 98 triumphs. Mays and Hoyt scored 46 of. the wins. Some pitching! In the world ‘series these same the day. Each pitched {three re- markable games, Hoyt winning two and Mays orfe. The two defeats suf- fered by Mays and the one by Hoyt were ‘heartbreakers. Different This Year. There,'was every reason to believé that Hoyt and Mays would -be equally ‘successful this year. Thus, when Sam Jones and Joe Bash, the stars of the Bosto: ‘staff, were sold to New York, it was only natural that the experts should concede the pennant to the Yankees. Things have been mighty different this year with the two star pitchers of the Yankee staff. With four weeks of the season to go, Hoyt had 14 vic- tori@s to his credit, Mays, on the other hand, had only 12 wins. . It is possible that Hoyt will come close to his 19 victories of last: year, but Mays is ‘certain to fall far below, his mark of 27 wins for 1921. Luck Needed Too. ‘. They do say, that to be a winning pitcher; you must be blessed with luck ag well, as ability. Last year the Yankees made plenty of runs for Mays, this year they seem to, leave their bats in the club house when he performs, Hoyt’s luck has been much the same. Failure to get, the breaks often robs a pitcher of much of his.confi- dence. That, to a certain extent, has played havoc with the Yankees’ pitching this year. { I can see very little difference be- tween Carl Mays’ pitching this year and last. He seems to have just as much stuff, but he can’t win with any degree of conisistency, Hoodoo Worries Him. Mays is high-string, temperament- ; he lacks the poise that would en- atts him to throw off the hard-luck Instead; he worries over his failure to win, which, in turn, naturally affects his pitching. Last year Sam Jones, pitching for Boston,.won 23 games for a club that finished fifth. This year, with a month to go, he had only won 11 games for the Icague-leading Yan- | kees. Joe Bush has carried the Yankees’ 1922 burden. With four weeks “of play remaining he had 22 victories to his credit. He should reach the 25 mark easily. Bob Shawkey, who failed in. the series, and was counted out by many of the experts, ranks- next to Bush in effectiveness, Three Best Bets, Thus the three best bets — Mays, Hoyt and Jones—have not run true to form, while Bush and Shawkey have bettered past performances, However, despite the disappoint- ments that have crept into #he Yan- | kee staff, I rate it as the equal of jany in the major leagud:. Hoyt, Mays and Jones have all. their old- time stuff. Their failure to win is simply one of the many mysteries with which basebail is filled. If the Yatikees ggp into the big | series the opposition certainly will be forced to look at -some- mean | pitching. i | In preparing breakfast a woman takes 446 steps; in Preparing lunch 651 steps, and in preparing dinner 411 Broadway |990 steps—unless she lives in eects apartment.

MAY MEAN IN A WORLD SERIES By Eddie Collins World’s Greatest Second Baseman While trying to ‘figure ‘out the dope, on the chances of fle Giants, Yankees or Browns’ being the 1922 world series champion, the ‘thought occurred to me, how.much of ‘an up-. set in the calculations would ‘the Joss through imjury of a man like Sisler, from the Browns’, or Kelly from the Giants’; or Pipp from the Yanks’ lineup mean? Er Rather odd, but a fact neverthe- less, that-just, previous to a great rmany world ‘seriés, some member of fone-of the contesting teams has been réndered hors de combat.

Teamwork Counts What of it? Just this? The suc- cess of every, championship team, I believe, is due primarily to team- work, There are lots of good ball teams where teamwork\is not so obvious, but very few championships are won without it, I know that the absolute harmoni- ous co-operation of the Athletics was the secret of their success from 3909 to 1914.0 2128 A good ball team might be likned to a well-oiled: piece of machinery.
