Phillies in a Position Where Dodgers Will Have to Play| to Win) Phenomenal Ball Pennant. By Bozeman Bulger. ALLED upon to deliver a punch, the, Phillies have cut one loose from their shoetops. They have shown the class. If either Brooklyn or Boston beats them out now they will have shown a grade of baseball such as the National League hus not seen. With pitchers lke Alexander, Mayer and Chalmers to carry them along, the Phillies ought to breeze the rest of the way, They have thirty-four games to play, while the Dodgers | have but thirty. There is nothing to show where Brooklyn has any ad- vantage in pitching or hitting, and if both keep up their present gait there will be nothing t6 it. Moran will have bis club under the wire before the end of September. In other words, the Dodgers must play phenomenal ball from now on to win, while the Phillies can take it comparatively easy. The loss of two games in succes sion has given the Bri blac eye, and there are few of their sup- porters who have not lost confidence. The expected spurt has net material- |halted several times by the gallery | ized. To New York fans, playing the role of innocent bystanders right now, it is the pep and ginger of the Phillies that makes them look like winners, Every man in the club is up on his toes, and the pennant bee has stung them so hard that they can see no chancé of losing.
