THE SAME. fi H i nk nee By John J. McGraw, Manager of the New York Giants. ONNIE MACK has said that the Athletics will win the American League pennant. Mack was never one to boast, and they only smoked him out with this prediction after several American League agers had said the Athletics would not be able to last.

As a rule, 1 do not pay so much attention to the world's series games until they are right at hand. There are ny reasons W! 1 want to be sure to get into this fall, In the first place Mack and I have each won number of pennants, four apiece. Mack hae taken two world’s champlonshib decisions while I have only one to my credit. Here is my chance to tle him this year. We have each taken one series from the oth Another impori- apt reason is that an American Leagus team has won the dig series ever since 1M0, and 1 am eager to land it in tne National League again. I believe I have the best team in the league to accomplish this purpose now. The Pir- ates brought the last world's champion- hip to the National League in 199. If the Giants could go into the series to-morrow I would consider them to be @ much stronger club than elther of the teams which have played for the world's ohampionship under my management in the past two years. The club has not ny place because none 3 is aging yet. Mathew- for it. f how a man can stick in the ‘tain precau- always saved tions. himself carefully.

Injured stars can impossible to guard against injuries, that I called a meeting of all th hb if thi methods of reaching him, Adams was the crowa te beat, he carried the club into extra innings before the Giants finally got the decision. It was only excellent pitching of Matty and From: that saved us that game, TESREAU WILL BE FACTOR IN WORLD'S SERIES. When you come to figure it out, the pitchers have done a great deal toward, carrying the Giants to the front. We have been winning games right along in which the club has made only a few runs, Mathewson and Marquara have been in top form ever since the Giants Jumped into that winning streak on the last Western trip, Demaree has done his share of the winning, too. The youngster showed his stuff when he dropped several hard luck games early in the season, qnd thege defeats @14 not discourage him at all, He dust | kept right on plugging. | Tesreau has not been able to get going | steadily this year so far, but I believe | it is just a Httle hard luck combined with @ certain lack of the right condi-| tions. He will be pitching consistently | winning ball before the world's series and be a big factor in those games, ta@® it from me.

Wait until you the work of some of our ‘onfidence was all ostled out -| of them when they got a look at the work of the New York pitche: “That fellow Matty is @ wonder,” said Carey after the series. “He is the greatest man 1 ever saw to save him- self, You can tell he is not using much until things get crowded, and then he puts on the ‘stuff.’ He makes you feel @ little something on you ali the th Philadelphia 1s the team we have to fear now If any one of them is to b feared, Pittsburgh, after being dumped by the Giants, broke b: grounds.
