DOPE ON THE WORLD'S SERIES
Giants and Athletic Compared Man

CONTRAST OF THE LEADERS

rritm , a Style Peculiar
to Himself.
NfcW .TORK. Oct. lk.-The world'i
ebAmp-ontilp base ball aeriaa about to
begin, marks the. climax of Interest In
tbu great American same of base ball.
Tha, championship contest comes every
year, but Is ever new In the Intense ex
citement. over, tha crucial series. Last
year. Philadelphia and Chicago were the
centers of this championship storm, .tha
Philadelphia. Athletics of the American
league wiriiilng the coveted title.
With the world a pennant still flying
over, their magnificent base ball borne
at Shi be park at Philadelphia, and with
another .American league flag freshly
won, Connie Mack and his Phlladelphlans
now meet John J. McGraw and his Q.anta
of the National league. It Is the second
Ume that these .two generals have clashed
over the same great Issue. In the war of
IK. McGraw won tour of the, five bat-
world's pennant.
ence In the generaif-hlp of their forml
dable, base ball forces, these two base ball
leaders now meet again for the .champion
ahlp.,struggle. Two more divergent type
than McGraw and Mack cannot be plcked
in the base .ball world. The contest be
twe.n the two chief may be summed
up br.efly aa follow:
markable an achievement, he is expected
to render good account of himself.
' Mathewson is a native of Pennsylvania,
and for one brief period was a member
of the team ha now opposes, but tor the
better part of ten year he has been with
the "Giants." He first attracted atten
tion at Bucknell university, and his first
professional berth was on the Taunton
nine of the New England league. Twice
the big fellow haa pitched no-hit games.
In 190$ he was credited with thirty-seven
of the "Giants' " victories. He won more
than two-thirds of the games he pitched
this year. He la U years old.
Notwithstanding the confidence still
placed In him. It la likely that he will
have less of a chance to figure a a
hero In the present aeries, as his big
left-handed pitching mate, "Kube" Mar
quard, and Matty's Junior by eight years,
ha won championship distinction. The
young "southpaw." whose services cost
McGraw 111,000, proved a good Invest
ment, for It 1 mainly due to his phe
nomenal pitching that the "Giants" are
in a pdkltlon to face the "Athletics" for
the title. 4He ha won twenty-four and
loft only lx games this season.
Mafquard'e first professional play was
with the Waterloo team of the Iowa State
league. Later he was with the Canton
club At the Central league and was
drafted by the Detroit, who turned him
over to Indianapolis. He proved the
sensation of the American association,
and it took the big price named to bring
him to New Tork in 108. While he
possessed all kind of speed and a varied
assortment of curves, he was almost a
complete failure In hi first season, but
McGraw stuck to htm and has been well
rewarded.

"Giants' " pitching staff since he jumped

EXAMPL OP BASE STEALING BY T HE GIANTS.
Manager John J. McGraw of the New
York National league champions, has
drilled his players so thoroughly In the
use of the "hook slide" that every mem
ber of the Giants Is able to "hit the dirt"
In McGraw's favorite style In approved
fashion. McGraw has Increased ution hu
players the value of perfecting this
method of eliding, as It will save them
from a sure put-out In nine cases out of
ten when the play la close. McGraw haa
put his men through a spoclM oours of
instruction In sliding to third base, for
he realises that a man on third will do
a gr&at deal to upset th pitcher and the
opposition.
In this photograph Is forcibly shown
how the McGraw method nets result.
Becker is seen sliding into third, beating
a tosa from the outfield by th scantiest
of margins. The ball reached "Red"
Smith of Brooklyn, simultaneously with
Becker' sliding Into the bag. In (rop
ing around for th slippery base runner.
Smith dropped th ball and Becker was
safe. He scored immediately thereafter.

actly the same height at his pirchtng
mat, "'Chief" Bender, 6 feet 1 inch.
H I a bolder of records one Of them
being the famous 24-lnnlng victory
over' Boston in 1907. During the 110
reason he . went bi Innings at one
stretch without letting an opposing club
core on him.
Bender and Coomb will be called
upon It Is believed to do most of the
pitching In the series at hand but as
the Giant are said to be weaker be
fore left-handers it 1 possible that the
two "south paws" Plank and Krause,
will be given a chance to distinguish
themselves. Plank was One of a trio
of twirlers who won for Philadelphia
it first test of . league championship
in Mack' second year.. Veteran though
he is. at the age of 36. he I still able
to do effective work.
