The pitchers to be used for toda game—assuming the prospects for | good playing weather panned out proved considerable of a problem for | both managers. Neither Hornsby nor Huggins cared to announce pitching selections definitely in advance. Hornshy's problem was to select a pitcher who could stay the bats of the | slugging New York team as Alexander stayed them Hornshy had whom to choose—Rhem, Haines and Teinhardt. For each of them there was much to he said. but offhand the best pitcher of- the three, laying aside all physical aqualifications, is the pitcher who can best stand the strain | of making the first appearance on the | home grounds. Haines, who hys never overworked this season, has much in his favor. To this wrifer he appears to he much the type of Aldridge of Pitt=burgh, who fs a tip-top money pitcher under heavy strain. Reinhardt, with a aplendid curve ball, ix a good het to fuddle the Yanks: as Alexander did, and Rhem offers possibilities of pitching a winning game anv time. But should Haines get the call and win the Cards would he more dangerous than at any time since the series started.
