i i? ‘ NO HOPE OF NEW YORK TEAM IN NEXT WORLD'S SERES | ——¢2—__—___. Yankees Eliminated in American League Race Several Weeks Ago, and Judging by Manner Cubs Outclassed Giants, the Latter Are Out of National League Pennant Hunt. By Hugh S. Fullerton. Ooorright, 1918, Prem Publishing On, er ‘vork reais World.) AREWHLL, a long farewell, to hope. Our Yanks slipped & fortnight ago, and those who! watched the Chi- cago Cubs put the) skids under the| Giants yesterday | gave up the last) hope of a pennant for New York this season, The ma- jority of the speo- tators departed sadly, having de- cided that World's Series are not worth while any- how, In plain, un- adorned Enafish, the Cube made suckers of the Giants, broke their vaunted defense and breached their lines by hitting the weak spots. Outguessing and out- gemeralling them at every potnt, they beat them 6 to 0, and put themselves four and a half games ahead, so that if the World's Series is to start about Aug. 20 the Glants have about as much chance as the Dodgers have of beating out the Cubs, If only the Giants or Yanks could finish Ifke the Brooklyne or the Brooklyns start like the Giants and Yanks, there might be some hope for « New York pennant. Brooklyn kept right on winning yesterday, and tho Yanks, by calling Caldwell from the outfield, achieved another victory over Detroit, tut the Giants were tho centre of interest, and their failure made baseball leas essential in New York than Secretary Baker ever dreamed it to be. AL HERE {8 a lesson tn yesterday's game for every boy in the United States, whether or not he is interested in baseball, The game {llustrated the fact that @ dub who {s willing and in earnest, and will work hard, is better than the genias who tries to get by on his reputation, The Cubs are not a good ball ctub, taken as individuals. But they are working. ‘They are trying and hus- 6, taking the chances and keeping | their minds on their work. The Giants, even now in thetr crippled| condition, mechanically superior to} the Chicago outfit as a team, playing careless, lackadaisical base- ball and do not seem to be putting thetr best efforts into the work. For| a time, during the earlier stages, the Giants spurred themselves to greater efforts., ‘The punnant, no matter how hollow an honor it may be this sea- son, was within reach. The series that was starting was the most im- portant of the entire year. Bo it was a contest and a matching of two different styles of generalship and the more shifting and versatile style of Fred Mitchell overthrew the system by which McGraw has won so many honors, Mitchell outguessed, out- generalied and outplayed the Giants at every point. McGraw decided upon that elashing, first ball hitting system by which he has crushed and beaten so many clubs, but the superb pitch- ing of Hippo Vaughan blocked the system. Vaughan held the Giants to one scattered single—that by Heinie Zaamerman, He allowed two bases on balls, one of which was a gift from the umpire and one because ho tried to put too much stuff on his fast ball, Two men got as far as second base and that was all, Only four batters realty Lit the ball hard, and Toney’s artve to centre, the hardest of the entire game, was cleverly captured by PModraw had chosen Fred Toney, his newest acquisition, to stop the Cubs. Toney is a great pitcher, with consid- erable limitations. He has a corking| me che, | the effort to stop them, meaning that Idiers and Sail HELP WANTED—FEMALE. 6 ty Wiel | .

Mitchell ordered a bunting attack. The Cubs started bunting and rushed the attack. Now, if there is one thing that no Giant team ever has relished it is to be attacked after their own man- ner of warfare. The Cubs pressed them hard. In the second they came near breaking through, when Paskert walked and Merkle almost bunted a two-base hit past Zimmerman, being thrown out at second by inches. Thea Paskert rushed and tried to steal home, losing a questionable decision at the plate. It was evident that the Cubs were the aggressors, and the Giants were forced back onto the defensive all the way. They bunted home @ run in the fourth and tm the fifth smashed the Giant defenses all to pieces with bunts, and scored again. The Glants were in panic, leaving bases uncov- ered, and the Cubs were laughing at them. That style of attack upset Toney. He was so uncertain as to what the Cubs would do that he was following his pitches forward and not attending to the business of hurling the ball. In the ninth the Cubs dropped their bunting and commenced cracking the first bali, and @ single by Hollacher, Mann's ‘double and aitigles by Paskert and Merkle (the third hit for each) settled all doubt as to the result. HE onty hope that I can see for the Giants now ts that Klll’or be called to the army at onos. He is tho strength of the Cub defense and the strength of their pitching staff. But he expects to remain at least two weeks longer. ‘The Cubs scent the pennant, and are fighting for every point. The way they played ball yesterday was a re- lief after the carcless and seemingly indifferent work of other te: that have shown at the Polo Groundg in the last fortnight. But while the Cubs see a champlon- ehip looming, they are not too hope- ful. If there is any world’s champion- ship with them in {t the games must be played prior to Sept. 1, for the Cub players are united in their deter- mination not to play after that date Naturally, they are a dit anxious 1s to the result of the various meetings tc be held this week. They have almost earned the right to participate in the profits of a world's series, and they admit that their chief hope now {8 that the National Commission may and decide to |play the series before September | starts. HE @efeat of Cleveland by the Athletics and the victory of the Red Sox practically ends the Aieri- are|can League race, if the closing is to come as many of the magnates seem to desire, No one knows what the club own- | ers and officials will do in pheir vari- ous meetings which will be held on Saturday, unless one follows past dope and figures that they are certain to do the wrong thing, whatever that is. There were no fresh outburscs yesterday except sporadic abuse of each other. The American League, the National Commission and some of the Cleveland. President Tener, who has refused to meet with the National Commission, and some of his club owners are going to meet in New York.
