REDS NOW HAVE SHOW
For First Time Cincinnali Club
Picked as Winner.
Joo Tinker Will Strengthen Infield
Where It Waa Weakest Good Haul
Mado Vhen Seals Becker Wta
Secured From New York.
Cincinnati, for the first tlmo In
years, is picked to bo an acute con
tender for the National league base
ball championship. Its selection is
due to its having a now and versatile
manager in .loo Tinker, formerly of
tho Cubs. Cincinnati is said to havo
had a missing link in its llnc-up over
since Tommy Corcoran left tho team
In 190C. Corcoran played short and
tho ex-Cub Is now expected to supply
tho missing link that has kept tho
Kcds from winning a pennant.
It Is generally conceded thnt with
Tinker at short tho Reds will be at
least CO per cent, better than last
year, when they put Up a romorkable
fight. Basoball men in President
Lynch's organization say tho club
would have finished bniter, and possi
bly would havo won a flag, If Garry
Herrmann had had an lnfleldcr of
Tinker's caliber. They expect tho for
mer Cub to place tho club in the
thick of tho battle with Chicago, Now
York and Pittsburg. Their contention
Is that ho has men who can hit the
ball with any other set In the organi
zation, who can field as well, and
who havo tho speed. If ho can ob
tain better than fnlr pitching, It is
thought ho will give the first division
teams a lot of worry.
Tinker's Infield, taken at a glance,
is not tho worst in tho league. It was
only medlocro last season, and In
spite of that did remarkably well.
Tinker's presence will mako It ono of
the fastest in the league. No club
in tho organization, except Brooklyn,
can boast of a better first baseman
than Hoblltzell. His Hue nblllty has
not been brought out yet, but It will
bo with Tinker at tho helm. Egan Is
a sterling second baseman, but waB
handicapped by not having an 'experi
enced shortstop to help him. Assist
ing Tinker at Second, Egan is expect
ed to be a wonder.
The right side of Tinker's Infield
nnd half of tlio left can be compared
with any of tho other seven teams.
Third baso is a perpelxlng problem
for tho new manager. He has a com
petent man in Eddie Grant, but the
latter has lost much of his aggres
siveness and hitting strength. It is
thought, however, with Tinker at
short Grant will play as ho did with
tho Phillies. Should ho do so, Tinker
will havo a good lnfleld. He has fair
utility men in Esmond and McDonald.
Tinker's duties aro light when it
comes to choosing men to play the
outfield positions, although ho did lose
a good man In Mitchell. Some say tho
Reds will profit by tho Mitchell trade.
He had been with the Reds so long
that ho lost his enthusiasm. Marsans,
the Cuban player, is an excellent man
to take his place. He Is assured of
playing regularly In right field, as he
ts a natural .300 batter, fast and show
ing development In his hcadwork.
Reseller will bo In loft field and to
day rankB aa tho leader of the league.
That takes into consideration his Held
InK, batting, throwing and base run
ning. Ho fell below tho .300 mnrk
last summor, which should not havo
happened, experts say. It is expected,
though, that ho will climb abovo this
flguro this season under Tinker's sys
tem of playing. Hescher nlso ought to
be better In base running and field
ing with the spirit and ginger Tinker
plans to Inject into the club.
A fairly good haul was mado when
Beas Becker was secured from Now
York for tho wnlvor price. It Is not
likely he will play center field, as
Tinker has a better man In Bates.
Becker Is fleet, but is only a fair
hitter and fielder. "Bates possesses nil
theso requisites and llko Bescher is
assured of a regular borth. Ho In
jured his leg last season and played
In only oighty-nino games for an aver
ago of .289. Cincinnati's outfield Is
to bo ranked with tho best, critics say.
Goldlng Finds His Successor.'
George Goldlng, tho champion heel
and too walker of tho world, now liv
ing In Toronto, Is of the opinion that
tiiore Is a walker In Denmnrk who
sooner or later, will succood him as
champion His namo Is V. B. Gylke.
He competed In tho 10,000 meters
walk at tho Stockholm Olympic
games, making a good showing. Tho
Dane Is a natural walker, with a
tinooth and finished stylo.
DcPalma Gives Up Racing,
nnlph DePalma, winner of the 1912
Vanderbllt cup, has retired from tho
racing gamo. DaPalma has not fully
recovered from the- Injuries ho sus
tained In tho collision with Calob
Bragg at Mllwaukeo, and ho doubts
his nblllty to "como back" as a
