ALL THE NEWS OF Feecssticrs HIGHLANDERS’ BATTERY. | BILLY GILBERT ON THE CHANCES OF THE GIANTS While no player on the New York team can be induced to say outright that the Giants will win the champion- ship this scason, there among the players that the aggregation hes better chance than any team in “the National League to land the coveted bunting. ‘The race is too long to make it safe to predict anything regarding the result.” says Billy Gilbert, the élever second laseman of the Giants, in a letter, “Dut we feel from the way we line up now that we have as good a chance as any team in the league to come in first. Our pitchers are not in the best form yet, ant when they come around to doing’ their best we will have much smaller scores against us than we have been naving up to dete. is a foeling | SEG Wun?

It \ seems that our men never play so bard and with such good judgment as when the odds are against them, and that Je the time when the true ‘mettle of a laseball aggregation comes to the sur- face. Take a majority of teams, and they are beaten as soon as thelr oppo- nents go (o the front With us it is different. We are at our best when we ‘are carrying a handicap, and I predict that we'll win out many a game thie reason, after it looks hopelessly lost for ws.’ One quality BASEBALL NOTES. MoIntyre 1s doing some great fielding for Detroit. He was a star in thelr Boston series, Ferris bas been fielding finely for the Boston Americans this year, but has not beer hitting hard. Philipp showed returning form when he shut out Brooklyn, Pitcher Faulkner, who was awarded to Detrott, is still working for Roches- ter. Some Western critics think tt may be | that Mathewson 1s on the slippery push, the way they are hitting him of late. With Waddell and Plank in shape, Connie Mack has a couple of hard prop- ositions to give to the Western teams, Gilbert, the Gian second bagman, j@Faws more passes to first than any on the team. He has a way of damon ip to the plate and making harder for opposing twiriers cieginnlty. Kellum, Harper, Wicker, Corrigan, Dunleavy ‘and Thatcher are the National plichers who have not lost ® game, Somehow sone peonla think that Ten- acy, Lowe, Long and Greminger would be a better infield for the Boston Na- tionals than the present one. The vet- erans are far from olayed out, as thelr work this season has shown. Greminger, the Boston National third |bareman last year, now with Detroit, has made twenty-three alts in twenty- jone games, thirty-one putouts, jtwenty-five assists and made but one error, He 1s the leading third baseman of the American League. Yrank Bowerman, the New York entcher, who left for his home in Michi- gan Thursday to nurse an injured knee, will rejoin the Giants in Chicago. The only effective ball that Mathew- won had during the entire game Thurs- day was his drop. All his other styles of delivery were tapped with tndiscrim- inate heartiness by the Reds. The big fellow is evidently not “right” yet. Manager Kelley looks better on first base every day.
