PITfSTHR! SCARE IITOI. i Ell ANOTHER WIN Pittsburgh Cuts Giant Lead to 3|/ 2 Games, but Pennant Chance Is Slim. By WESTBROOK PEOI.ER United Seta Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Sept. 22.—The, Pirates clipped another full game off the Giants’ lead when Earl Hamilton who was waived out of the majors five i years ago came right back by waving ] his educated left arm, let them down with a half-dozen discreetly salted hits on the minor end of a 6 to 1 score. This left the Giants with only 3% games remaining of the proud sixgame lead which made them so confident a few days ago and it is conceivable, though unthinkable to John McGraw. that Barney Dreyfuss will have belated use thts year for the temporary stands which he bought and had to put away in mothballs a year ago. The lfs of the situation are these: If the Giants should lose five out of their remaining 11 and if the Pirates win their outstanding eight there will be only a half portion, if that much, of a world series at the Polo Grounds, where Signor Coogan runs the bluff. The Yankees have seven more games to play and they need take only three of them, which is less than .500 baseball, to place themselves be yond the menace of the Browns even though the Browns should snatch six straight victories In their six remaining games.

Playing the Field

With Eddie Ash Mike Kelley’s Saints are "in” with the A. A. penant, mathematically and otherwise. The Apostles are twelve games to the good over the secondplace Millers and only eleven more gomes remain to be played. It didn’t take a mathematical cinch to convince the fans the Saints were champions. The team’s final trip around the circuit put it across. Strange things happen. When Mike Kelley managed Indianapolis in 1913 the Indians finished deep in the cellar. Ted Jourdan and Tony Defate negotiated a triple play against the Senators. Almost any sort of an unusual feat can be pulled off on the Senators. The "Pullman twins" certainly hit together Thursday. Bob Meusel crashed the ball out of the Detroit lot! in the sixth w,th two mates aboardj | and Babe Ruth lifted the pellet over j ; center field fence in the seventh with ere mate on. It was Babe's j thirty-fifth homer. That New Yorle-Detroit game was a thriller. George Dauas. Indianapolis boy. struck out Witt. Dugan and Ruth to start the game. Later Dana* was injured and had to retire. All in all the Yanks used three pitchera and the Tigers five. In the ninth Detroit had runners on second and third with none out. but failed to score. How many tames has Everett Scott played in consecutively? Nearly a thousand, we believe. But what we were going to say was that Everett was caught on ! the ancient hidden ball trick Thursday. Indians and Brewers remained idle in Milwaukee today. The scheduled 1 game will be used as part of a twin ! bill Sunday. Milwaukee is not the c.ty it used to be to pass a holiday :n, j however. Nelson Pott hooked a basket over; Ir.t.ians’ heads Thursday and shut j them out. 3 to 0. Brown got two of [ the three hits off the Brewer south- i raw. Jess Petty hurled for the Tribe | and was poorly supported. Mellilo j got a home run as first man up In I the opening inning when Hamel mis- ! , judged his line drive. There is said ! to be a trade brewing between the | clubs that would make Nemo Gearln I i itn Indian and Jess Petty a Brewer. I Both players are rated strong Class AA performers. The Giants are not so smart. Worry is looming far John McGraw as the end of the National league schedule nears. The Pi- j rates beat his elan again Thursday and drew within three and j one-half games of tile leaders. Time is short, but the Buccaneers are still dangerous. How those Pirates and Giants love: each other! Maranville took a punch j at Rawlings Thursday and was put ' off the field. Later Coach Dolan of j the Giants was banished. ■ Dan Tipple, who was developed by Indianapolis and sold to the New York Americans in 1915, pitched a peculiar no hit, no-run game lor Omaha against Des Moines In the Western League Thursday. He walked eight men. It i was a hitless shut-out pitched for Indianapolis that won him a big league trial. He didn’t remain In the ! majors long because of lack of coni tiol. i

Here and There in Sportland By Dick Anderson THE New York Giants have crowded their brother citizens off the speculation map now and pencils are busy figuring Just how close the Pirates can come to the National League e. Only three and a ,? p'--half games in the Py" ' lead the clan of iL. ,j- : McGraw will have ■/ to step. The Plrates have been 1 when everything " Is set for an “All ANDERSON 1 Gotham” series. It works all right on paper. The Yanks are blazing their way along their last tour of the big league cities. The Tigers went down three : times before the slugging Hugginstnen ; and they have moved over to Cleveland for a crack of the war paint of Tris Speaker's Indians. EORGE SISLER has been ac- -• claimed the most valuable player In the American League. A committee o feight, a sporting writer from each American League city, did the choosing. Rommell, Athletic pitcher, came next, and Ray Schalk, Chicago White Sox catcher, was third. The St. Louis Brown first sacked rightly deserves the honor. He comes irom Michigan nr.d has delighted baseball fans throughout the country by his capable and sportsmanlike manner of playing.
