Last season the “iron men” of baseball, considering the number of games pitched, were Eddie Cicotte of the
White Sox with forty-one, Jim Bagby of the Indians with thirty-eight. Babe Ruth of the Red Box with thirty-
six and Alexander the Great with thirty-five. Rather remarkable records in this day and age, but nothing note-
worthy when the achievements of the ancients are considered. Back in 1884 Charles Radbourne worked in
eventy-two complete games and finished the season with a mark of .838. In 1876 A. G. Spalding pitched sixty-
three games for a mark of .899—a winning percentage which has never been equaled., in 1904 Jack Chesbro
pitched fifty-three games. In the same year Joe MeGinnity curved fifty-one games, having a winning record of
5814. In 1908 Ed Walsh participated in fifty-four games with a winning percentage of .727.________________

A battle royal from start to finish,
the Texas-A. and M. baseball game
finished up in true championship style
when in the tenth inning yesterday as
the Longhorns put across the neces-
sary run to win the game, 2 to 1.
The game this afternoon, however,
will have to be won by the Texans in
order to have the undisputed cham-
pionship over all teams. Should A. and
M. win, her contention would be that
A. and M. was tied with Texas, the
record of games won on either side
being two-all. Today’s victory would
give Texas the 3 to 1 record of games
won over A. and M. and eliminate all
contention of a tie.
A squeeze play won the game for
Texas yesterday, Gillett, pitcher, bunt-
ing one out In the tenth which brought
Helnie Bolanz scampering across the
plate for the winning tally.
The game yesterday was a brilliant
affair, the fans seeing play after play
executed with unusual skill and abil-
ity. Long drives to the outfield fea-
tured nearly ever inning. The speedy
work of the fielders kept the drives
from counting. Many close decisions
gave the “umps" an opportunity to earn
his money. Both Gillett and Higdon,
the opposing pitchers, gave an excit-
ing example of what a pitchers’ battle
ought to be. Gillett had the better ot
the argument, allowing only one hit,
MoMurray’s two-bagger, while Higdon
allowed four. An error and a sacrifice
allowed the A. and M. crowd to put
across a tally’ in the eighth inning.
The visiting team was a machine of
perfect running order. Rigney, the
shortstop, furnished the features by his
exceptional fielding. He accepted four
chances that looked like sure hits and
fired the ball across to first for outs.
The Longhorn team was likewise in
excellent working order, only two er-
rors being registered against Bolanz.
The team handled a total of eleven
chances.
The pitchers ha.} thp situation well
in hand the first four innings, the sides
being retired in short order. Ross, in
this inning got the first hit of the
