One of the Philadelphia old-ti good starts in the race for the | ers, Johnny Rowe, ball player, fire- | Hutchinson, is declared to over- come which has next cack. The two ace pitchers of the Ath- letics are noted for their seeming | carclessness in watching men on the bases. In the ordinary game, perhaps, they feel they need not worry about a runner or two on base. They are seldom hit hard and, be- | ides, the A's usually come through with enough tallies to absorb any damage due to opposing activities on the bases. In the world’s series, where each e is putting its best and fast- est foot forward the situation is slightly different. Two stolen bases by Martin de- feated Earnshaw in the second game. Another helped to unsettle A4Grove in the third contest. On each of these occasions Martin’s lead was such that Cochrane would have needed @ rifle to bring the runner down. The fact that the backstop's, throws were a trifle off the line served to point the finger of blame at him, but old baseball men did not hesitate to criticize the pitch- ers. “Bases are stolen on the pitch- aer, not the” catcher,” said Harry Davis, old time first baseman and captain of the Athletics 20 years ago.
