ABOUND THE BASES

Tesreau leads the New York pitchers in shut-out games. Bed Doom seems to be able to break anything but his streak of bad luck. Marsans, the Cuban, is the find of the Cincy team this season. His hittipg is wonderfully good. Eddie Collins thinks Stahl has one of the greatest pitching staffs ever assembled on one big league club. Harry Tuthill, the trainer of the Detroit Tigers, is back at his old job training the West Point football team. It is said that Joe Wood, the star pitcher of "the American league, butted into baseball just to keep from starving. McGraynor, the Reds’ recruit pitcher from the Ohio State league, had a try-out with-the Yankees two years ago. Veach, the recruit outfielders of the Detroit Tigers, is the first big leaguer qf that name since the days of the famous Peek-a-boo. No truth in the report that the Pittsburg club is going to change Hans. Freddy Clarke will keep him kt the shortstop meadow. It has been rumored that Bill Donovan, ex-Tiger, now managing the Providence International league club, wifi manage the Brooklyns next season. This is Hugh Bedient’s second time with the Red Sox. He was drafted by Boston two yeark agp and later was sent to the International league for a little seasoning. ’j.— There are a lot of teams in tha National whose players express the nans that Eppa Rtxley’s “paw” will keep, him out of baseball next season. He’s likely to get pesky then. * Frank Chance Is quoted aa saying that he believes Mathewson is still oae of the greatest pitchers in the game. That is a compliment that means much coming from the Cub leader.
