By Bozeman Bulger. R two months 1-~ we've heard much of the prowess of the Hersogs, but the hittingest Giant of them all—a bird who has been under cover—is this young man Holke. If you don't think #0, just look at the score. It was the bat of t's new first base- man that whipped in four of the five runa made by McGraw’s club In the opening slaughter of the Dodgers, and that same slab stick was also respon- sible for putting the fifth man in) »- sition to score, Taking it all in all @ stunt like that by @ ma. comparatively new to the leaguo may be considered @ fairly g00d day's work. Last fall . .on the name of Holke @ppeared at the top of the National 1..gue hitters experts were inclined to emile, and did. Nobody gave th boy @ tumble at all, They figured bim one of those accidents who lead the hitting list by virtue of being in 1% You often have hea: || the league, but how many of you ever recall that it was really Walter Holke who topped the list, Technically, it te true, but re just the sam ‘And the funny thing about 1 eaid McGraw jubilantly last night, that the boy has been busting that 111 t along this spring and no- ly peared to notice p3 Holke’s first wallop y day was ® three-bagger with two on basen, His second was @ single with three on. But tn raving about this wonderful lad let us not turn completely away from Ferdinand Schupp, the Loula- ville left hander, Here is another young man who cut quite a shine last summer but was laid aside in the fan mind for a longer observation, Then, right out of a clea: sky he bobs up with one of the jrettiest pitched games of the year, or any other year for that matter. No veteran ever pitched a more careful and skilifui game of ball. The Dodgers, reckor. | as the hardest hitting gang in the \elreuit, caved in and were helpless, They had no chance of scoring. And atill some of our enthusia.‘e express fears about the probable failure of the Glant pitching staff! McGraw has worked Anderson, ‘Tes- reau and Schupp now and the net result is three nice fat victories to be saved for next . Believe us, they will always come in handy. The opening defeat of the Dodgers was a bitt pill for last year's champs. ,They were absolutely con- fident of beating the Giants, even it they do realize a waning of their champtonship strength, “Other clubs may beat ue,” eaid Wilbert Robinson the other day, “but something tella me that McGraw’ club is made to order for us.” | true Benny Kauff showed gamencss when he refused to leave the game after suffering a aplit finger while going after a long fly. A minute later he led off the batting rally that won the game, And, even in a later inning, the bandaged finger did not keep him from beating outa bunt, Cold weather ran the Yanks and Senators right out of the park in the morning, and then they began to re- gret it in the afternoon, The cold winds of noon died down and it was a clear afternoon after all, At that, it's mighty nippy up on that con- and pneumonia comes cheap. We don't blame Harry Spar- row or Capt, Huston at all. Cicotte of the White Box ap- pears to have rushed the season @ bit in palling a no-hit game during the first series.
