ae UP-TO-DATE AND NEWSY BEST THE EVENING WORLD, ‘FRIDAY, | SEPTEMBER BER 29, Oe ar SPORTING PAGE IN NEW YORK EDITED BY ROBERT EDGREN CHANCE THINKS GIANTS | 5 WILL WIN WORLD'S TITLE AF MARQUARD'S IN SHAPE Manager of Cubs Believes Outcome of Series Will Depend Entirely — BY BOZEMAN BULGER. (Bpeciel to The Evening World.) Chicago, Sept. 29. IN the opinion of Frank Chance, I manager of the Cubs, the chances of the Giants defeating the Phil- Adelphia Athletics in the world's se ties will depend entirely upon the condition of Rube Marquard. If the dig left-hander gets back in shape he thinks the Giants will win. “Basing my statement on the gen- eral belief that Mathewson and Mar- q@uard are New York's two strongest pitchers,” said Mr. Chance, “the con ition of Marquard will tell the story. Nobody need to worry about Mathew- | pou. He will surely beat the Ath-| Jetics, and if he has a strong twirler| to help him out, the Giants ought to win. The series will depend entirely upon the pitching. “If the Giants and the Athletics had whole season igainst each Giants would beat them out but in @ series of seven with ease, games it is such @ short sprint that the ‘Dulk of the pitching strength will have, to be brought into service at once. The | Athletics have two great pitchers in) Coombs and Bender. Of these Lender | fe the detter. While Coombs beat us| three games last fall, he should have won any one of them. In one game he allowed us eleven bases on balls, | but the luck broke #0 that we could | not take advantage of It. No pitcher in the world can give the Glants eleven bases on balls and beat them.

The Athletics are strong as hitters, fair as flelders, fair on bases, fairly strong in pitchers; Giants are fair hitters, good fielders, fast on bases, fairly strong in pitcher's box.

I really believe the coming world's championship series between the Giants and the Athletics is going to result in one of the greatest tussles ever before witnessed. I would Ike to see Connie Mack and his men win. I believe the Giants are going to give them the hardest kind of a rub for the possession of h mame. If Mathewson and Marquard are in good shape the Glants are very dangerous. Then, again, Manager McGraw knows baseball from A to Z, and is he i sure to put Into execution every clever trick he knows.
