PTCHER BAN

UNWMuNG

IN THE LEAGUES

(BY JAC K KIOCK) STAFF CORRESPONDENT 1. N. SERVICE! NEW "ioUK. Al'ril . I'he ban on freaks and the new- pit chins rule have had no noticeable effect to date on the work of major league pitchers who are In condition. With the season entering its second week today it arrears that the pitcher? still have the upper hand and that any batter who amasses a fat average will have to work Just as hard for it ascer before. The leading; box men, no doubt are farther advanced than the batters, but the work of such twirlers as Cicotte. Williams. Vaughn. Tney. Carlson, Bush and Oeschrger and OovelesMe indicates that the ait of pitching is just as fine as ever. Cicotte's performance asainst the Petroit Tigers when he shut them out with five hits was the. most significant p'trhinsr exhibition of the. current base ball week. The veteran Chicago star, reputed to have invented or perfected the "shine ball" which is nontaboo, has apparently lost n"ne of his cunnln?. Oescheirer of the Brave who whitewashed the Oiants in their recent series came back in his regular turn and pitched ten scoreless inning's against Brooklyn before he was beaten in extra frames. Such pitching leaves little for the batter to gloat over. As the feason grows? older the work of the batsman will improve rapidly, but when hot weather arrives the effectiveness of the pitchers will increase So there is no particular reason to exFeet the annual crop of .300 hitters will be much larger this teason than in past years.

SHIFT TO NEW FIELD East Meets East and West Tackles West Attendance Encouraging.

N'E'W YORK. Arpil 23. Half of the big-time baseball fans who couldn't sit iton the opening games last week will be accommodated today. The sme teams, with the same scenes reversed, will appear in the yards that have been dark this season. The Eist will fight the East and th "West will fight the AVest In a three-day engagement n the National League, while Ban Johnson has booked a fourday scries for his valiants. The Giants will put themselves liable to another mauling from the Braves in Boston; Brooklyn goes to safe and sane Philadelphia.; the Cards will help in the exemplification of the baseball degrees for George Gbson n Bit t shurhg. and the Reds will try to make Orovcr Alexander look cheap before his "home-town fans" in Chicago. Ban Johnson, having let his wrath against the, Yankees subside, apparently wished Col. .Huston's boys to win their opening game in Harlem, so he booked them w ith the Athletics. Mirk has been

doing things to the Yar,ks. however, and

he may not be bluffed out by a few- thousand rabid Gothamites. The Red . Sox take their clean sl.ite, to Washington, where there isn't much d inger from ,'dirt." Gleason takes his two pitchers. Williams and Cicottee. ani his other players to Detroit, and the Clc eland Jndians journey to S?t. Louis. Attendance at all the games so far this season has indicated another reig-n of prosperity for the national pastime.
