Poor Miller, trying with all the gameness of a real fighter, found himself up in every pinch and he was almost useless. The Setu'ors. of course, finally beat the Giants hut it was luck more than class that dropped the Giants in the last game. Eucky Harris learned his lesson from that experience and he got busy this year and collected some veteran reserves. He got Mike McNally from from the Boston Red Sox but Mike didn't hold up ami was passed to the minors. He secured the veteran Reacon Scott front the New York Yankees but Scotty is not good for many games and he has slowed up to a walk. He picked up Joe Harris from the 'Red r Sox also and found him very handy when Joe Judge was hit on the heart with a pitched ball in Detroit and vas forced to the bench for weeks. Harris is not the best of fielders but he is one of the most dangerous batters in baseball. Harris also picked up Bob Veaeh from the Red Sox to use him as a pinch hitter and for occasional 'duty in the out field, lie also has Nemo

haps the best utility player In basehall broke his ankle late In the season, His work ut second base during the fluid drive of the Pirates was a piece of art and without him the Pirates certainly would have had more difficulty it they did not actually lose the pennant. As utility inflelders the Pirates have the veteran Stuffy Mclnnia, who >un still bat even it he is us slow us n truck, nud Kus and Thompson. The team would ho In u serious plight if anything happened to Trajnor or Wright. \. In the outfield the Pirates have as reserves, Parson Uigbee," a good re lief man and Haas, a youngster. Dig bee has slipped a lot in the last two years but he Is still good for a game or two. Tile Pirate catching staff has a ijood reserve In Spencer and two alternating regulars, Johnny Gooch and ‘'Oil'’ Smith. Compared to the brilliant reserve staff the Giants had in tiie world’s esries last year the utility men of the two champion teams this year is decidedly ordinary. It Is not .fair, how ever, to compare any team's second ary strength to that of the Giants because John McCraw has recruited more high class reserves than any other two teams. In baseball. The Pirutes, however, will be much less hable to need reserves than the Senators. The Pirates are comparatively a young club and the players can stand the wear and tear better than the veteran Senators. If anything should happen to Peck during the series, the Senators probably would blow their chances. *♦* + + + + * + * + + **« ♦ BASEBALL STANDING 4 #**++++++ + 4 + * + 4 NATIONAL LEAGUE W.
