CHICAGO, IN, July 13.—Out here in the Middle West, and in fact every city west of the Alleghany Mountains, the opinion prevails that the New York National League Club is taking things easy in the senior league pen- nant race. Collecting and amassing most of the expressions of the base- ball authorities in the different cities that the Giants play in they sound somewhat convincing. For instance, they state collectively that Manager McGraw set to work after the winning of the World's ies last fall to build up an invin- cible machine. New York, the great- est baseball city in the country, de- manded the best baseball, would pay for it, and must have it. Owner Stoneham would go the limit finan- cially, would outbid any of the op- posing magnates in their quest for players, McGraw secured Groh from the Reds, giving him his so-called “million-dollar in- fleld.”” This added punch to the club on the offense and gave them a stone- wall defense in the inner works, vjsomething MeGraw has — alwa: dreamed of, George Burns was taken out of the outfield, yet Burns has not been missed m ) to speak of. Weat- ern critics think MeGraw can secure new material or pitchers any time he cares to.’ A few twirlers like Lee Meadows or Pete Donahue fromf the Philadelphia and Cineinnati elubs would add to the present strength of the World's Champions, McGraw, they say, does not want either of these men, at least not just yet. Neither docs he want Eddie. Roush or any other player. He feels the Giants are too strong now, re- marks one of the experts of the Mid- die West and the acquisition of either of these men or the strengthening of the New York club further might prove disastrous to the national pas- time McGraw's men are so strong to- day, sthe Westerners allege, that they have to "dog" it to make it a race with any interest attached. ‘The pitchers that were supposed to be notoriously weak are to-day twirling the best ball in the National League ce, That includes Douglas, Ryan, Nehf und Jesse Barnes. What perhaps profipted the critles here to pass such judgment on the World's Champs was their showing here in the first game of the present series when they defeated the Chi- zo Cube 4 to 0. The Cubs were cutting quite a figure in the National League race They had worked their why up into third place and had won the Inst nine out of ten games they played. They could not understand why the Cubs could fall before the same club that could only take three out of five from the downtrodden Pittsburgh Pirates. The Giants played super baseball in the first game here and appeared really much better than they did all season.
