Fraternal Bowl- next New | Coe Y We come once more to the case of Ty vs. Tris, or Tris vs. Ty, as you may care to put it. For August is waning and the pun- gent odor of burning leaves is only a drift or two ahead when the full count will be in, and when, for first time in ten years, Cobb looks to be in dangers of running down with pack. Ten Years Ago. Cobb had his soul set the league ten years in when the 1916 campaign . He began his first great drive in 1907, with a mark of .350, and has never been headed since at the finish. He has had his share of close calls, for in 1910 he beat Lajoie by only a single point and in 1911 he had to beat a mark of .408 to finish first. But close calls are forgotten, and for nine years Cobb has not only led his league, but his margin above the next regular has been, on an average, at least 20 points. In the last four years, for ex- ample, Cobb has averaged 23 points a season heyond Jackson and Collins, who have been in second mlace. on leading succession opene | The New Danger. The two White Sox sluggers given Tyrus Raymond the greatest battle. Joe Jackson ran second to the Georgian in 1911, 1912 and 1913, When Joe had exhausted most of his ammunition, Eddie Collins took up the charge, running second in 1914 and 1915. But comes a new danger, the & danger of #hem all. August is moving along, and the wide gap between Tris Speaker and Ty Cobb remains unchanged In 1910 Speaker was 40 points back of Cobb. In 1911 he was over 80 points away. In 1912 Tris finished 27 points to the r Tn 1913 he was have now 1test and PORT MANY PLAYERS ARE For | LIGHT Grantland Rice moment, but I haven't been able to develop any batting such as I have had in the past. I haven’'t been able to develop a batting streak long | enough to last out any one series, much less a week or two. “Why is this? Well, if any one can explain a batting streak or a batting slump he has something on the rest of the world. There isn't any answer. | You are either hitting or you are not, and that seems to end it.” Past Years. It has been seven years now since Cobb dropped below .368, and in five of the se#n years he has been above .375. d On the other side, Speaker has batted over .340 but twice in the last seven years; but 1916 is/another dy nasty. The Texan has played far greater ball for Cleveland than he ever played for Boston, and this cam- paign so far has heen easily the ban- ner season of his fine career. Whether he will slip as Cobb shoots forward, just as Jackson slipped _and Ty romped forward in 1913, when Green- ville Joe had a big lead, is something | for Destiny to grapple with, not the | other player for price not to exceed dope of the day. ‘i SUBJECT TO RECALL | Yanks' With 27 Reserves, Lead Both Leagues | 24 points behind; in 1914 T lagged 30 points, and in 1915 the margin was 48 poin So in points the range 1911 to 2 X years Ty season hehind the being from 82 points 7 points in 1912 has ave But No Longer. But Tris is no lagging. He rted beyond first week of the campaign, and he has never dropped back since. At the end of four weeks he was 40 points out be- yond the eminent Georgian. Week by | week the fanatical bystander has waited to see Cobb close in the gap, or for Tris to slip and drift down hill But weeks have passed along into months, and there is still no change. At the end of the seventeen weeks’ play Speaker is still over 40 points beyond Cobb. And there are now only seven weeks left A number of longer Ty the things can happen in seven weeks. m unless Speaker slips badly Cobb up against the roughest proposithon of his career. For if Speaker insists on sticking around .390, as he has done nearly all year, Cobh to beat him out must bat at least .420 for the rest of the season—must average around two hits a game for about fifty games. Against Joe Jackson in 1911 or 1912 Cobbh caught up 30 points and added a good many more from late August to the finish. That rally superhuman. Tt may be that Ty can "| se to such abnormal heights again. | No other man would have a chance. | But Ty is a tremendous fighter against rugged competition and yvou an gamble that he will be working | his soul out. even though in vain, to | the end of the scrap.
