If they can only canter a bit faster than they have been speeding, the stage is set for them to burn a barrel of redfire On their western trip they made by far the best showing of any eastern team. Pittsburgh did pretty well at home at the same time and held its Jead for that reason. Since they have been on the Atlantic seaboard the Braves have not shown any inclina- tion to stop. They are still moving along on their toes. While they have been home in the east the Braves have won a series of three from_Cincinnati, three out of four from Philadelphia, have broken even two all with Brooklyn and have split three all with the Giants. While doing this since June 19 their per- cen-age of victories has been .647. Meanwhile the Giants in the same have won eleven and lost That is a winning per- interval seven games. centage of .611. Pittsburgh has' not been traveling any too well. The Pirates have played 25 games in the same time that the Bostons figured in their 17, and have| won 15 and lost 10. That gives the, Pirates only .600 per cent. Moran Likes Braves' Chances. BOSTON, Mass.. July 13.—The Bos- YOUNG TOSSERS ACTIVE Battling for Titles in Various Base Ball Classes—Nines Would List Games.
