TEAM FUNCTIONING " INGREAT FASHION Philadelphia Pilot Has Three Star Hurlers Ready to Throw at Cubs. BY CONNIE MACK. HICAGO, October 10.—For the second straight afternoon, the Atheltic team came through nobly and defeated the Cubs in a game in which they massed hitting power with competent pitching. Our pitchers have be:n so good that they have fanned 26 Cub players in two straight games. I was sorry I had to take George Earnshaw out yesterday, Dbecause I think he would have won had he stayed in the game, but I have so many pitchers '-hl! I was justified in making the switci ‘We heard a lot of advance talk about how the Cubs would murder Grove, sim- ply because he is a left-hander, but ‘when he went to the peak yesterday afternoon he showed a display of high- preuure pitching that was unmatchable. the short time he served he fanned xlx opponents, while Earnshaw crushed seven on strikes. Ehmke was a wonder Tuesday and both Earnshaw and Grove came through yesterday and deliv- ered the kind of pitching that & team needs in a world series. Athletics on Their Toes. ‘The Athletic players were .on their toes and played n wonderful game. Jimmy Foxx put us out in front when he wrecked Pat Malone's afternoon by thum the ball into the left field bleac] for a dramatic homer, with Cochrane and Simmons on the bases. ‘Thet hit galvanized the whole Ath- letic team into action. It was just what we to make it two straight over the Cubs. After Foxx showed what he do there was never any question lbout the result. In the fourth inning we scored three more runs. Dykes started us off with a single and Earnshaw got a break when English fumbled his grounder. Bishop walked and Cochrane and Sim- mons hit singles that gave us three Tuns and put Malone out of action. Blake took his nuee but a pineh-hit- ting switch removed uickly, and Carlson was on duty -nd t It the sting of Foxx’s and Simmons’ hitting skill. With two out in the el‘hth inning, Cochrane walked and Simmons poled the ball into the crowd in right fleld for a homer. 1 “Hartnett . *Blalr .. *Tolson Philadeiphia (A. L)... Chicage (N, L).....

HICAGO, October 10.—In each ries of two games on two succes- sive days 13 batters of the cuh have been struck out. That is l wm of 26 strikeouts in 70 times at ba Without l-k into consideration any baneful mfluence that the num- ber 13 may have exercised, or m‘i’: believed to have been exercised, there is no ball team in the major leagues of this vintage or any other that can hope to get into base ball nirvana by | having 26 batters fanned in two games. Championship teams in this city, ex- cept the hitless wonders of the Sox, have been famous for being smashing hitters. They have not been famed for being the strikeout champlons of the universe, and the Cubs are heading that w|¥ with no one to block their race. 'he Cubs are u frank disappoint- ment. The canker of sorrow and envy is eating into the vitals of National League owners because their representa- tive teams have lost 10 successive games to the American League in 3 succes- sive world series. 'SPITBALL PITCHER HOLLYWO0O0D’S HOPE By the Associated Press. FRANCISCO, October 10— Frank Shellenback, veteran right-hand spmnll pitcher, is to take the mound tot or the Hollywood Stars in an ltwmpt to stop the winning ltretk of the Mission Reds for the 1920 Pacific Coast League base ball championship. Ths Reds won the first two games of the post-season series. Shellenback, le-mn( pitcher of the league this season, probably will be op- posed by Herman Pillette, Mission’s right-handed hurler. Bert Cole pitched the Missions to an 8-t0-16 victo: yamd-{m.uowmfi 12 hits. ‘The Hollywood s} son and Wetzel, allowed 14 hits, Includ- ing home runs by Baldwin and Scott.

CHICAGO, October 10.—Howard Ehmke, who lulled the Cubs to sleep with his slow ball Tuesday, was cheered lustily yesterday. He cavorted about left fleld during the A’s practice. “I think I could tame the Cubs again,” he said. ‘Two rajahs, one of them of swat and another of & royal household, were present. “Rajah” Hornsby of the Cubs was one; the genuine one was rajah of Kapurthala, India, who said he had often heard of the Cubs’ second sacker. Gabby Hartnett, ailing Cub catcher, is the l}rlk!out pinch hitter of the se- 0 far. he batted for Blake and whiffed. He did the same thing Tuesday.

Many wra) eir legs up Wi ewspapers lnapthen tossed them on the field and seats, as park attendants frowned. English, the goat of the first game because of his two bad errors in the ninth inning, got a big ovation when he came up to bat in the first inning. He got & hlgflar one when he got the first hit of the game. Capt. Grimm stood the crowd on its head by standing on his own in the sec- ond inning. English fielded Foxx's roller and tossed far wide of first base. e Cub “joker wild” snatched it out of the dirt with his mitt, touched first and rolled over on his own head. Catcher Cochrane sat on his haunches and glared at Earnshaw for almost half & minute when “Big George” got into a jam because of his wildness in the third ning. It had a steadying effect on the big fellow, too, and he got out of the hole. Hornsby, who had struck out four of es he had batted in the two es, was booed roundly when he came up in the fifth inning. He re- nded by whacking the first ball to ight for his first hit of the series, It wu the first time the “Rajah” was given a bu boo on Wrigley Field this year.

HICAGO, I, October 10.—In| the opening game of the world series, I might have said that| the Athletics got some brem 1 that the Cubs did not, and won the ball game.

The Athletics slmrly outclme the Cubs, and that's all there was it. They had superb plkzhln. in all save one inning, when Rogers Hornsby started a rally that drove Earnshaw off the hill. They had great pitching from Earnshaw, especially in the pinches, up to then, and “Lefty” Grove, who succeeded Earnshaw, was good | enough to beat any one the rest of the | way. ‘The Cubs had more hitting yesterday than on the day previous, but they got going in only one inning.
