Major League Comment
vßv United Press . Eddie Pick joined the Chicago Cubs within the week and rapped out the single in the eleventh inning Tuesday that gave the Bruins their fourth straight victory over the New York Giants, and their tenth win in a row. The score was 4 to 3. Pick’s single scored Beck. Hack Wilson hit his thirteenth home run in the sixth. With Flint Rhem and Grover Alexander pitching, the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Phillies, 6 to 4. Cy Williams of the Phillies scored his eleventh home run of the season. Jakie May. Cincinnati Reds’ pitcher, blanked the Boston Braves, 1-0. He allowed only four hits, struck out nine batters and whiffed two in the ninth when the Braves had men on the paths. Only 900 persons saw the game, believed to be the low attendance record for the big leagues this year. Rain prevented play in the American League. Hornsby went hitless for the secohd successive day. He was at bat four times. Ruth, Cobb and Speaker, were idle. „.. AB H Pet HR £ ot >b 181 70 .380 2 Hornsby 191 70 .366 10 Roth 194 66 .340 21 Speaker 188 61 .324 0

He has brought up half a dozen players from the minor leagues, whence he himself sprung, and has built up a baseball club which has stood the National League on its head the past two weeks. Win With A. A. Stars When McCarty took over the Bruins a year ago, he acquired Hack Wilson, who has become the bane of pitchers. To date this season he has hit thirteen home runs. Wilson was obtained from Toledo. McCarthy took Clyde Beck from Milwaukee and Riggs Stephenson from the Indianapolis club. This year he brought in Clifton Webb, from his old club, the Louisville Colonels, and Elwood English, an expensive shortstop from Toledo. And recently he secured Eddie Pick, third sacker, from Kansas City. i From this aggregation of youngsters. peppered with such veterans as Grimm at first base, Hartnett and Gonzalez, catchers, and Sparky '

Two Jacks to Meet in Elimination Tex Announces Sharkey, Dempsey Scramble for July 21 in New York. Bu United Press NEW YORK. June 15.—The longrumored matching ©f Jack Dempsey and Jack Sharkey in a bout to decide which will meet Gene Tunney for the heavyweight title was confirmed by Tex Rickard today. Dempsey a> . Sharkey will meet July 21 at t .£ Yankee stadium before a crowd which Rickard confidently expects will pay $1,000,000. although no champion is on the card. Each of the principals will get 25 per cent of the gate, it was understood. Dempsey, -who has been training in California for several weeks, will come east and take over his favorite Saratoga training quarters, Rickard said. United Press dispatches from the coast quoted Dempsey as confirming Rickard's announcement of the battle. Sharkey’s remarkable showing against Maloney probably will make him at least an even money bet in the Dempsey bout, and if the fight is won by a knockout by either battler, the victor will find many backers when he meets Tunney. The championship fight is tentatively set for September.
Adams at second, he has welded a .fine baseball team. The Cubs have come from behind in many games to win extra inning contests. Several times this occurred in the string of ten straight just chalked up. The players he bought and developed are now leading McCarthy's batting order. Get Hits in Pinches Despite the fact the Cubs are perched in the middle of the ladder in club batting, the hits have come -when they were neded. Fine pitching has helped the Cubs Sheriff Blake and Charley Root, two aces of the staff, were laid up for a time, but arc now back on the firing line. Percy Lee Jones, star left-hander, is still out of the game, but rookies John Brillheart. a southpaw, and Bob Osborne have filled the gap. Brillheart started out as a relief pitcher, but has started three games in the past nine days. Osborne also has shown to advantage, and with Carlson to pitch regularly, McCarthy feels he has a well rounded out hurling staff.
