Johnson once hurled three successive shutouts against the New| York Yankees, causing Kid Elberfeld to remark on the fourth day: “If that blankety-blank from Idaho pitchés again, none of us will have any job left.” ‘Ty ‘Cobb, too, was at the zenith of his unparalleled career as an all- around st with the Detroit Tigers. Starting in 1910, after the introduc- tion of the cork-center ball, Cobb burned up the American league with | Mat @ five-year streak in which he aver- aged .400 at bat. The great Georgian hit his high mark with .420 in 1911, when Shoeless Joe Jackson, then just | Carolina rookie with the Cleveland ‘Naps,” pushed him by hitting .408.! ‘The Boston Red Sox had a great ar- ray, featuring the remarkable fielding of Tris Speaker, Harry Hooper and Duffy Lewis, as well as a fine pitching | staff headed by Smoky Joe Wood. The Sox were the only club able to check the championship run of the Athletics in their own league, winning the pen- nant in 1912 and thereby preventing the Mackmen from setting a record of | five in a row. | ‘The year 1912 produced the most astonishing set of pitching perform- ances any baseball season has known, with records for consecutive victories being achieved by three moundsmen. Topping the last was Richard W. (Rube) Marquard, left-hander, who came up to the New York Giants from Indianapolis ~* the American associa- tion highly touted, only to be labeled “the $11,000 lemon” when he failed to show anything in 1909-10. He struck his stride in 1911, leading the league's pitchers with 24 victories, and in 1912 started the season with 19 consecu- tive triumphs. The Rube was unbeaten from April 11 through July 3, and he equaled the all-time record of Tim Keefe, made in 1888, and established @ modern mark. The American league subsequently witnessed a thrilling due) between Joe Wood and Walter Johnson. It ended with each winning 16 straight games for a new league record. John- son was unbeaten from July 3 to Au- gust 23, Wood from July 8 to Septem- ber 15. The Red Sox ace led the hurl- ing list with a final total of 34 vic- tories and only 5 defeats, for a win- been touched in either major league. Chief Bender nearly equaled Wood's and Johnson's records when he won | the decision over Bender in a sen-| sational 2 to 1 opener to the 1911 se- | |ries, but he was beaten twice after-! ward. Two home runs by Frank Baker | were contributing factors to the vic- tory of the Athletics, who finally won | four out of six games after the series | had been delayed a solid week by rain. One of the early incidents of “player-writing” complications devel- oped in this series. The first of Baker's home runs helped beat Rube Mar- quard in an early game, whereupon tthewson’s “ghost writer,” in the pitcher's signed newspaper article, took the Rube sharply to task for pitching improperly to the slugging third baseman of the Athletics. Marquard was “sore,” but he had ample revenge. It was Matthewson’s | turn to pitch the next day, and Baker | again connected for a homer to decide Tomorrow—Starting Over Again. ; their prospective rivals and the last- | CUBS THREE GAMES. ‘BEHIND WITH ONEY 4 SKIRMISHERS LEFT Giants Beat Robins, Eliminating | ¢; Them From Mathemat- ical Title Chance MACKMEN WATCH ST.

The Brooklyn Robins dropped out of the race yesterday as they took an 8 to 2 beating from the New York Giants while the league leading Card- imals again triumphed over the last Place Phillies 19 to 16.

Just as the Athletics surpassed rivals, the Cardinals now appear to be the do- minating team of the elder circuit. Yesterday's victory put them three ful games ahead of the idle Cubs and brought the record of their climb up to 29 victories in 36 games. The Giants gained a virtual tie with Brooklyn for third place and today the four clubs stand as fol- lows: Club Won Lost Pct. GB a st af : 61 . As the ‘American League had a day of idleness, the Athletics spent the afternoon watching the antics of | the contest. Another incident in this series gave eloquent testimony to Mack's fine! sportsmanship. It happened after the} Giants had won a tight game, Larry | Doyle racing home with the winning! run on a sacrifice drive to Danny Murphy, whose throw to the plate was \too late to catch the New York second baseman. It was unnoticed by the time by players, but Bill Klem, umpire behind the plate, later told a newspaper man Doyle had not touched the plate at all and could have been saint, out, if the A’s had been more ert and protested. ‘The story was quickly@carried to Mack. It was suggested he file a pro- test. He replied: “The Giants won that game fairly and squarely. I won't protest. The Athletics do not want to win any games on technicalities.” The Athletics, after their slump of 1912, were back at the top in 1913 with a slightly revamped lineup. John (8tuffy) McInnis had replaced Harry Davis at first base, Amos (Billiken) Strunk and Eddie Murphy were in the outfield, Wally Schang behind the bat with the veteran Jack Lapp, and Joe Bush a useful addition to the hurling staff, along with Bob Shawkey. Herb Pennock was just a rookie. Again Mack outgeneraled McGraw in the world’s series. It took the A's only five games to win the champion- ship, Matthewson scoring the only triumph for the Giants in a 10-inning duel with: Eddie Plank. When the Athletics won the pen- nant again in 1914 it looked as though 15 straight for the Athletics in 1914.
