If first impressions, therefore, are as lasting as they are advertised tn be, Connic Mack’s able and agile ils will have no difficulty what- in winning the pennant again the first d t least, the nm\‘ edition of Yankees, under Bob Shawkey's leadership, had neither the brawn nor the brains to cope with Lefty Grove and the A’s. No longer do the Mackmen, Grove in particular, manifest any inferiority complex when they meet Babe Ruth end Company. The confidence aroused by gaining supremacy over the New Yorkers last year is re- flected in large quantities by the Philadelphia ‘cast” {n™ géneral and expressed in loud tone of voice by Jimmy Dykes, the peppery third baseman, in particular. ¢ The championship qualities the Athletics are obvious in the way they rise to emergencies or to the dramatic possibilities of spec- ial occesions. Spectacular proof of this was evident in the last world’s series. In the opening game of the 1930 campaign, Aloysius Haryy Simmons put aside the fountain pen with which he had_just signed| his, contract, grabbed a bat and| knocked the ball out of the park on his first turn at the plate. . . . of | If a few predictions on the A’s are, warranted, outside the expec- tation that they will repeat, two of them are that Grove will have his. greatest year and that George (Mule) Haas, in centerfield, will b2 one of the most improved players| cn the club. Grove's opening performance em- phasized he no longer relies solely upon tremendous speed. The slim| southpaw can throw bird-shot in the direction of the plate when! he needs to but his curve looks bet- | l, a(\N_H"-L STUDIOS | Y or.wlmno e Learn the Modern Way |ting form of Al 1 Portland lCleveland | Boston ter and his change of ?).;ce more effective. Babe Ruth missed one of Grove’'s curves by a foot for the third strike and two of the Yan-| kee newcomers, Cooke and Chap- man, probably aren't sure yet ju: what it was the southpaw was buzzing by them. Haas, youngest of the Mack regu- lars outside of Jimmy Foxx, has developed fast. He hit .2380 in 1928, his first season as a regular, 313 last season and should move up closeto the .350 class this sea- son. The 26-year-old centerfielder caught the eye of Ty Cobb, as well as a number of others, by the way he performed in the world’s series last year. He is one of the fastest men on the club and a ball-hawk on defense. The effect of Ty Cobb's tutor- ing has left its mark on the bat- Simmons. The great left-feilder of the A's looks for all the world like a right-hand- ed Cobb at the plate, In the crouching ease of his stance, sharp swing and even to the wide, loose sleeves that Ty affected. Simmons, !ilke Cobb, is a dangerous hitter to all fields. Al hits impartially over the right-field wall or into the left-field stands at Shibe Park. g GAMES YESTERDAT Pacific Coast League Oakland 5; Los Angeles 4, Hollywood 5; Portland 6. Ten in- nings.
