SPORTS Mack Lauds Spirit of Athletics : “Our Best Was PUNCH A'S NEEDED BAVE CLUB SERIES Ability to Turn on Base Hits| Almost at Will Great Factor in Victory. BY CONNIE MACK, | Manager Philadelphia Athletics. N another irresistible show of bat- ting power, the Athletics, hopeless- ly beaten for eight innings, came through in the ninth and quickly | tabbed the runs that beat the Cub: 3 to 2, and gave them their fourth vi tory and the world base Lall champion- ship. Tean't recall a serles in which the winning _team put forth two such theatrical late rallies in consecutive games to win the big title. It was not | enough that the new champions made | a record rally of 10 runs in the seventh | inning to win Saturday's game, 10 to 8, but yesterday they gave another ex- ample of their grit and fighting qual- | ities by making another heart-leaping | demonstration to win. | nings it didn't seem possible that we would break through his guard. I eight innings he had held us to lean singles and in only Outlook Was Not Bright. How could you expect to break through pitching like that? We were all set to try to do something in the | ninth, but the outlook, frankly, was not | ht. It is asking too much to expect a | team to_do miracles twice in a world | serles.

Max Bishop, Who has been a great | re in this series, gave us an opening | Miller, Boley, when he slashed a single to left. You always felt with a man on base in a Close game that one of the strong-backs on the team will drive the ball out of the park. T "Was hoping that Haas might get on some way to give some of the home- run hitters a chance. Haas solved the problem for me himself. It is nothing Tew for George to hit a homer, but I tell you I was delighted when he hopped on a Malone pitch and drove it out of the park, tying the score. I felt then that we would win, possibly in extra innings. I know what effect a hit like | that has on a pitcher who has been air- tight for eight innings. | All His Work Undone. All of his work had been undone by that one devastating blow. At the min- ute, with the bases bare and the play- ers clustering around Haas like madcaps | and patting him on the back, we had to start all over again. When Cochrane | was thrown out by Hornsby, it rather looked like we 'm:lld have to walt for extra innings to win. Yet knowing of Simmons’ ability to hit when a hit was needed, we waited expectantly. When he hit that roaring two-bagger there was a_chance to win the game right there.

I knew he would try his best and when the ball left his bat I knew the series was over. What a timely two-bagger that was. The ball fairly streaked out to the score- board and Simmons came 'home with the run that made the Athletics champions for the fourth time. 1 confess that I had the biggest thrill of my life. President a Mascot. I felt all the more joyous because President Hoover was in a box near our dfll! and was able to see the signs of e sy that follows the winning of & world hcampionship. I felt certain that he knows much better now what base ball means to the masses. It looks as if I ought to appoint the President our official mascot, for he saw us win our first and last games of 1929. I will always, in the future, be gias when I sce him in the presidential box It was a grand thing to win a world series with two humming finishes. The Athletics have proved beyond a doubt that they are a gritty, fighting and skiliful team. They took the jump on the Cubs by beating them twice in Chicago. That was a tremendous feat to do when you consider that, because of the physical condition of that park it is extremely difficult to beat the Cubs. When we won these two games, 1 never had any doubt of the ultimate result. To my players must go full credit for the victory. They won the American League pennant brilllantly and didn’t lag & bit in the world series. ‘They kept their heads up, fought to the last and won the big title with the most amazing display of courage, in winning games apparently lost, that was ever seen in the classic. . Praise for Every Man. 1t is no use singling out certain play- ers. Every regular on the team played his best and held up his end. Give every credit to Bishop, Haas, | Simmons and Miller, whose hits won | the final game. Then in Saturday's | game nearly everybody on the team played his part in scoring those 10 runs. This serles was won by the team, not by_one or two individuals. i When this series was ready to start 1 gave a great deal of thought to how 1 would work my lefthanders. I heard | stories that the Chicago batting order, loaded with sturdy righthanded hit- ters, were poison to the southpaws. | Now, while I had every confidence that either Grove or Walberg could start games and win, I decided to play it safe and use these two pitchers solely s rellef curvers and open With righthanders. Lefthanders Did Well. The plan worked so successfully that the scores show that Grove relieved twice and was not scored on, while Monday Walberg came in after Ehmke left and was just as effective as Grove | had been. Walberg never faltered, but mowed the Cubs down like a reaper cutting ripe wheat. He blanked them with two | hits and made victory possible. The | Cubs_may be able to hit southpaws, | but Grove and Walberg proved quite | impressively that they couldn't worry | them. ! It was a wonderful series, wonderful ; crowds, and played in bright mid' weather that carried no_discomfort to ' players or spectators.

BY JOE McCARTHY, Manager, Chicago Cubs. HILADELPHIA, October 15.—The Athletics won it. They took the best we had yesterday, and our best wasnit good enough. They are the champlons. For the second time in as many games the Athletics reached out and hauled back our Cubs when it looked as if we had victory just about completed. I'll say one thing in_congratulating Connie Mack and his ball club on their | victory—the Athletics know how to fin- ish something once they start it. Pitched Fine Ball. Pat Malone pitched fine base ball for eight innings yesterday, and his sup- port, save in one instance, that didn't natter greatly, was of the best. He had control of his fast ball right up until the ninth inning. He didn't get a | pitch right to Haas, and when the ball was last seen the score was tied. That sort of a wallop, delivered at| such a time, secmed enough to unsettle Malone, but he continued to have his stuff and got rid of Cochrane without trouble. Simmons, one of the best right-hand hitters I have ever seen, had been con- necting with Malone all day, though he had hit safely but once. His final con- tribution was a pip, though. His double ut the Cubs in the spot where they ad to pass Foxx and gamble on getting rid of Miller. But Bing was aroused, like the res hit settled things for us. Felt Sure of Ehmke. We felt certain that Ehmke would be unable to last out the game when he started, and we were not mistaken. Mack got him out of there as soon as two runs were across, and Walberg's sweeping curve kept the Cubs down the rest of the way. Even though we were not hitting Walberg very much, the way Malone was working out there it seemed as if the game would go our way. But it wasn't to be. We have no excuse to make. The better ball club won. Any time a club | can be held in check for eight innings, as the Athletics were today, and still have the necessary aggressiveness to bat out a victory on solid hitting in the ninth you have to hand it to them. And that I do. The Athletics are a great ball club, | though I'll not sey, taking the results | into consideration, that we were happy to have made their acquaintance.

Not Good Enough, ”Says McCarthy Series Big Shots By the Associated Press. Here's how the big guns of the Ath- letics and_the Cubs fared in the final game of the world series: Rogers Hornsby—First inning, popped to Foxx; fourth inning, rolled to Boley: fifth inning, fanned; ninth inning, lined to Miller. Hack Wilson—Second inning, singled to left and was forced by Cuyler; fourth inning, fouled to Cochrane; sixth inning, lined to Miller; eighth inning, fanned. Al Simmons—Second inning, singled to left and was doubled up with Foxx: fifth inning, filed to Cuyler; seventh inning, popped to McMillan; ninth in- ning, doubled to center and scored winning run on Miller's double to center. Jimmy Foxx—Second inning, lined to Hornsby, who doubled Simmons at first; fifth inning, reached first on Hornsby's fumble; seventh inning, hit into a_double play, English to Hornsby to Grimm: ninth 'inning, drew inten- tional pass. S sy ook HACK WILSON, GOAT, LED SERIES HITTERS By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, October 15—Hack Wilson, considered by many the goat of the world serles, was the leading slug- ger in the matches just concluded be- {ween the Athletics and Chicago Cubs. Wilson, the center fielder, who lost three flics in the burning rays of the sun on Saturday, which ruined the morale of the National League cham- pions, batted 471, far surpassing every other player. He made eight hits in 17 trips to the plate, seven singles and a triple. For the Athletics, Third Baseman Jimmy Dykes, the handy man of Con- nie Mack’s ensemble, was the star. though the fans can never forget the thrill that Howard Ehmke's pitching gave them in the first game, Nearly all the sluggers were up to par, with the exception of Rogers Hornsby, ‘who batted only .238. Hazen Cuyler hit .300 and Stephenson batted .316. Catcher Mickey Cochrane of the A's swatted at a 400 clip and Al Simmons hit an even .300. The A's batted .281 in the series and the Cubs .235. HARASSED UMPIRE KILLS PERSECUTOR PAULDING, Ohio, October 15 (#).— Persistent heckling of an umpire’s de- cisions in a game for the base ball champlonship of Paulding County cost Jack Straley, 17, his life, Umpire Clyde Crone, 45, felled Stre- ey with a blow to the face during their third encounter of the afternoon, and a doctor pronounced the youth dead. Crone was held in the county jail pend- ing an inquest. Witnesses said Straley, who was standing behind the base where Crone was working, hooted the umpire con- tinually. " Twice during the early in- nings ‘the two were pulled apart by spectators. In the last haif of the eighth inning, the umpire suddenly whirled on Straley and struck the blow which knocked him to the ground dead. Paulding won the game, defeating Oakwood, 4 to 2.

P HILADELPHIA, October | The pitching strategy of Connie- Mack in the 192) series was very different from the type of cunning he_ displayed in the days when he had Bender and Coombs and Plank to send after ball games. Seldom did anybody but a member of this immortal trio take the mound for the tall tactician in world title combat in the days of old, but no fewer than six men toed the rubber in the 1929 classic. Of these only Howard Ehmke and George Earnshaw pitched complete games. Prof. Mack’s decision to establish his two star left-handers, the Messrs.

By the Associated Press. | HILADELPHIA, _October 15 Despite the absence of Bal Ruth and his big bludgeon from | the world series this Fall, 24 records were broken or tied in the clash between the Athletics and the ‘ubs. Most of these went down whea the Mackmen staged their record rally for 10 runs in the seventh inning last Sat- urday to overcome an eight-run Chi- cago lead and pull the decision trom the fire by 10 to 8. y-odd marks fell last Fall. | Howard Ehmke, the elongated right- | hander, smashed the 26-year-old mark of Ed Walsh of the White Sox by fan- ning 13 Cubs in the opening clash at Chicago. Walsh struck out 12 mem- bers of the same team in the Chicago intra-city world series of 1906. Ehmke was admirably held up by Mickey Cochrane, tsar catcher of the Mackmen, and Mickey thus st:pped into several new fielding records. He |broke the record for put-outs with 14 in the first game and added an assist to top the mark for chances accepted. As Earnshaw and Grove came back with 13 strike-outs between them in the second game, Cochrane tied his own put-out mark and had a running start toward a new total put-out mark for the series, which he set at 59. He added two assists to send the record for total chances accepted to 61. ‘The Cubs set a new mark for strike- outs, with 50, registering 26 of them in | | the first two games. Other near records and things which should have been records, figured in the series. Connie Mack set a' new mark for world series managers to shoot at by winning his fourth title.
