By John J. McGraw. HAVE a chance to size up the Boston team in my article this week, since we have just concluded a series with Stallings's gang. The manager from Georgia and I have always been friends, and he had nothing to do with the Kauff incident when the World's Champions refused to take the ficld at the Polo Grounds and I had my discussion with Gaffney. Therefore, we conducted several fanning bees while I was in Boston. “The Boston papers have been after you pretty hard, John,” Stallings declared to me one night I met “You made the statemefit that my club was the one you Some of them have been kidding you. writer allowed there were several other teams you could afford to beat besides the Braves,’ “I guess I can stand some kidding,” I told him. since I eased into baseball.” “I'm going to have the best pitching staff in the big leagues in another month, !f I haven't it already,” continued Stallings, ‘ knows more about handling box talent than any man in the country.
