' GIANTS MUST BRACE | T0 REMAIN IN FRONT n slump, with their last six games chalked in the losers' column, the New York Nationals today face a serious problem to maintain their position as league leaders. Their swing through the western cireult, which gave the world champions their first serious opposition, has found them xomewhat wanting in the final drives to win In falling before St. Louis yester- day by the score of 4 to 3. the Giants lost their fifth consecutive game to the Cardinals and placed themselves in a vulnerable position for the f climbing Pittsburgh team. Pitts- burgh, idle yesterday. meets Bostc today in the resumption in the battle lagainst the eastern invaders. Supporters of the Giants, however, decline 1o become pessimistic over their slump, declaring that, like their habit of winning championships. it is becoming perennial. The first trip of the New rk Nationals through the west last year met with consist- ently poor resul The total was but four victories out of thirteen starts. With thoughts over their new stadiu New York Amerfcan team has shaken itself from a loser's rut back into the stride of a winner. Their blank- ing of Detroit, 9 to 0. before a crowd of 50,000, was an impressive perform- ance. Joe Bush was responsible for the shut-out, and it was the third such victory by Hugmen in five games, The drive of western teams, which seemed well under way a week ago, has been somewhat checked by the easterners.

BASE BALL:=55 AMERICAN LEAGUE PARK SPORTS, Game Series Here Today : No New Super-Pitchers Nowin Sight AMERICAN LEAGUE BETTER OFF THAN PARENT CIRCUIT /g |Adolfo Luque of Cincinnati Reds Appears 1o Be Best Twirler in Heydler’s Organization —Bentley a Disappointment. BY JOHN B. FOSTER. WO solid months of the Naticnal League have gone into the sere and the pitcher of great stunts has not materialized in that elrcnit. The American League is slightly better off in that respect, bhut j not much. s National League batting has been far more effective to date .thap American League batting. The National fielders are not far less effective ']h"." those of the American, so the logical deduction is that the National -eague pitchers are being whaled around the lot more than Americin League twirlers—and the deduction is correct. £ The .\_auonx! was none too good in the pitching department lu:t year, and it hasn't acquired much more strength this season. The hunt for the man with the poisonous curve still is on, and the days of thc dpmmatmg_ Mattys, Alexanders, Three-fingered Browns and other famous pitchers of the past have gone and not returned so far. A valiant American League man says the National League managers are not good coaches of pitchers. He won't even except Robby of Brooklyn or Moran of Cineinnati, both of whom have always been held very high in respect by the multitude. He points out that both managers have good pitchers and have gone nowhere with them. ~According to his theory, they haven't even got the best out of them that is possible Adolfo Luque an Exception. Luque of Cincinnati would seem to be an exception, and yet the record of Luque is one that savors of the in-and-outer. He is punk one sea- son and wonderful the next, He couldn’t win a coffin nail last yes and this season he has been the best the National TLeéague has shown Twice he has blanked the Giants, and he has lost but a single game out of nine. In the spring there was talk of trading Barnes for Luque, and if the Giants lose out thiz vear those who argued against the trade should pause and reflect on the manner in Which Luque has treated the Giants while serving them over from the mound. Luque has no love for the Giants because of the airy persifiage with which they alway surround him when he pitches against them Yet. the traditions of the game are such that he probably would have pitched his head off to win for those same Giants had he been traded for Barnes _Of course, the game that Vance pitched against the Reds ves- terday, when Sammy Bohnes' single in the ninth robbed Dazzy of a no-hit game, makes the latter stand out, but only ‘momentarily. Vance will have to do more to be classed among those “other days” boys mentioned ahove. @ happened in 1922, so it is again in 1922 The Giants have a pitching staff that requires the most delicate manipulation if the most is to be had from it. It is necessary, almost, for the Giants' generals to forsee the future and tell when the man who is pitching is going to blow up. Bentley Is a Disappointment. The Giants are having far more of that blow-up trouble than the Yanks, although the pitchers of the American League champions are not what they used to be. The National League! champions, with two .667 pitchers would be well nigh invulnerable. The $65.000 Bentley is not likely at| the finish of the season, to have any better record than the green Wol- | berg. The habit that the two New York teams have of running on from das to day and every now and then! rounding up at sunset with identical | percentages is one of the marvels, of the present season.
