ALaN J.GouLp You hear mainly about Grove and ‘Walberg, the southpaw speedball fl ,stars, when anyone is discussing the pitching staff of the Athletice l Jbut if the House of Mack bucks into the House of Wrigley in the sforthcoming world’s series, it is not unlikely that Old Jack Quinn and Big George Earnshaw, right- handers, will take over a _good share of the attempt to check the heavy-hitting Chicago array. Along baseball alley, they think the portside stuff of Grove and " »Walberg will be soft for the Bus- i tin® Bruins, most of whom are | Pright-handed hitters. With Wil- E son, Hornsby, Stephenson and Cuy 'ler coming up in a row to swing from the starboard side, it is any- thing from an encouraging prospect for a southpaw artist out there trying to hold his own against a crew that has been putting fast ones out of the park all season. ¢ Earnshaw, a horse for work, may »ing the Cubs furnish the apposition Biz George got under the wire with phis 18th victory of the season weil ahead of Lefty Grove, who had a sizeable start on the right-hander. Quinn has put on another come- back after slipping earlier in the campaign. Old Jack, the Mike McTigue of baseball, still has a lot of deception in his moist-ball pdelivery. He can't stand as much work as Earnshaw but after 25 #years in the game and at the age of 44—if the record books are right *—he can outsmart the best of them. The last time the Cubs and A’s mingled in the world’s series, Mack used only two right-handers to win, Colby Jack Coombs won three games and Chief Bender gct an even break in the other two ‘action ¥ At the rate he has been going so far this season, it is difficult to see how Eric Pedley can fail to win a place on the new American polo “Big Four,” now taking shape in anticipation of a renewal of the International Cup series with Grea® Britain next year. Right now the stocky Californian s one of the most improved play- ers in the galloping game. In high epoal competition, he has turned in a number of smashing perform- eances, adjusting himself skillfully to any one of the first three posi- tions on the field. The only post k2 has not taken a whirl at is back but so long as Winston Guest is available, there is no need to vorry about that place in the Ameriean line-up. Pedley was an international sub- stitute two years ago but he had fittle chance then, with Stevenson, Webb and Milburn still in the *pame. Now these three veterans are in the background while the new American team is being built around the onc and only Tommy Hitcheock. be Connie Mack’s best bet, assum- | played.
