Pitcher Who Intentionally Gives Batter Base on Balls
'Should Be Puiflshed for It Think Many Fans; Prac-
tice Tends to Reduce Thrills of Game is the
Argument Made Against It.
nr fb-uoi c menee.
THE fana who are opposed to th prac-
tice of pitchers giving Intentional paw
es to batten seem to be perfectly In
accord with the anffgoetftOD male re-
fnt v that a batter be allowed two baaea
- enei. er the pitcher purposely gives him a
lja.s on balls
The opponents of the Intentional paae idea
e idxe that this practice robe the eama J
seme of us thrills. They feel that whenever
a L.eay hitter comes to bat In a pinch they
axp robbed of possible tlnklinffs within thttr
ve ns If the slugger is given a base on balls.
Thei ant to see him have a chance to hit
to ball.
The trend of baseball recently has been
to make things easier for the pitcher and
t-ardtr for the batter and this antf-tnten-Tiuna.
pass clan think that the adoption of
tb two bases suggestion would about equal-
ize things It is certain that if a rale were
made allowing a batter two bases when he
-n as walked purposely- It would change the
e. -pect of things somewhat.
Lnder such a rule It would mean that if
the team had runners on second and third.
tle man on third wonld score and o one on
c (und would advance to third to make room
fur the passed batter at second. If the teati
had only one man on base -at third -of
i.oure he wouldn't adancc but If the tvoJe
run n err happened to be on first at the time
the pas was given he would move on to
th rd while a sole runner on second ould
gt along to third. In ether words a batter
would accomplish the equivalent damage of
a two base hit if a rule allowed him two
bases on an Intentional pass because it
ould mean the scoring of one runner If two
were on bases and the moing up of two
bases by a runner on first.
Charles Herat? who leads the Cincinnati
Beds hopes fae'V get another chance at the
job next ear. He feels that with his reor-
ganised team he will be able to keep In the
National league fight all the way.

from the cellar to within a few games of
the league leaders. ...... .
And the strangest part of It all is the fact
that the uplift work has been carried on
very largely-by three pitchers Tyler. Ru-
dolph and James. Not one of them ever has
been heralded as a pttchlng- wonder Tyler
has been given credit for being a ftrstclass
pitcher but James and Rudolph have been
figured as In and outers.

In which men here have gone tnto the game

long Block is the only one who has sup-
plied San Antonio with baseball continuously
for 10 years with any degree of success and
he is certainly entitled to every cent he has

Pirates are showing positive indications of

The Skippers had easy sailing with the

admirable pluck and Paul Santelt an utter
stranger in the Texas circuit is now eligible

BBckley Is a fctayer.
Umpires may come and go. but there Is
one who has been a stayer on president Da-

leaders of the older circuit. It ho doubt
was an awful blow to the Giant fana to
tee Big Six" shutout to the tnne of 1 to I.
The Mctory of the Boston Braves Satur-
day cut down the lead of the league lead-
ers. The Boston club is now only three and
one-half gamea behind the McGrawites and
ar playing sensational ball while the
Gotham clnb is still slumping. While the
Xen York supporters of course have a
big adantage with a lead of three and a
h4lf games it looks like the Beaneaters
have as equal break when It comes to cop-
ping the rag
Looking over the dope for the season any
Impartial fan would shoot the bank roll on
Boton. Why' Because the Giants got off
well and assumed a big lead at the be-
ginning of the season. The Braves got
away badly and Jury found them In last
place. But despite this handicap they
fought for every game and last week got
up in second position and have been playing
brilliant ball ever since.
On the other hand the Giants were away
in front and have been in first place for
weeks. But when challenged they have
quit like the crab did in all the series with
the Athletics It looks as though the New
Torkem have not the heart to stand a Gar-
rison finish.

out the game Saturday. He was never In

The Cardinals won from Chicago Satur-
day and they most be recognised as run-
ners np tor tbe rag. The club Is within
striking distance and with any kind of
luck will be in at the finish with New
York and Boston. But H looks righ now
aa though Boston fans will again see one
of their clubs fight it out for the world's
series. .
There seems to be no question but what
the Athletics will cop the flag in the
American league. On Saturday the league

that he la m rare form. He allowed the

seem Xo be in form. They will enter the
world's aeries duel In the pink of condi-

gave an exhibition drill that showed
the most splendid training. The horses
executed many difficult figures In right
and left passage forming circles and
figure eights to music one particularly
excellent feature being the evenly
gaited turning of the horses. The
troop swing and platoon swing about
the guidon were beautifully done. Ex-
citement of a mock battle was added
when tbe troop charged in platoon
formation the men firing their pistols
as they rode and stopping with almost
machine like accuracy with tbe horses
toucbing noses with those of the op-
posing platoons.
Another charge was made with sa-
bers in troop formation with the men
yelling at the top of their lungs. CapL
LeRoy Bltinge. commander of tbe troop
