Had Coveleskie turned in his usual number of victories, the In- dians would have finished a good sec- ond, and incidentally would have made it far more interesting for the New York Yankees, The pitching ace of the Indians failed to reach the .500 mark, winning only 13 and losing 14 games. Is was by far Coveleskie's poorest year of his major league career., ? o » Despite his inability to win with consistent regularity, the American league pitching records reveal the fact that €Coveleskie was the most effective twirler in the organization from the angle of earned runs. P Coveleskie was the only pitcher in the American league to hold the op- position to less than three runs per game, Usnally if a pitcher is effective | enough to allow only three runs to be | made off his delivery, he is almost certain to be returned the vietor. Yet Coveleskie, with sugh a record, failed to break even t season, and his work is classed as decidedly disap- pointing in the matter of games won and lost. As pennants are capturcd by winy games, that stands us the finul decision On every ball club there is o | pitcher who is regarded as the inx | twirler of the team. When that pitcher works the batting is invariably light and when some player makes an error | it usually costs the game, v e 0 | Coveleskic has for years occupi d | such an unenviable position on the Mary West, famous swimmer, in three poses of new dive.
