that he was rooting hard for the
New York team and was anxious
once more to wield the bat that made
him famous. Aaron Ward, who is
now filling the gap made by Baker's
absence, is playing a sensational
fielding game, but his batting has
fallen off. A man who can drive
a ball as Baker can is a big factor
these days in winning ball games.
Pennant Race In
Major Leagues
Draws Tighter
Dodgers and' Giants Both Gain
Points . hy Winning Games
While Pace Setters Are
Idle.
New York; Sep;. 9. The pennant
races in the National and, ' nerican
leagues tightened up auo'lrur notch
as a result of yesterday's games.
In the senior circuit the Cincin
nati Reds, who are setting the pftce,
were idle, while Brooklyn, in sec
ond place, defeated Philadelphia, and
New York, in thirdplace, won two
games from Boston. The Superbas'
victory put fhem in a tie with Cin
cinnati, so far as games are con
cerned, but the Reds have a lead of
4 percentage! points. The Giants'
double victory over' the Braves en
abled New York to gain four points
on Brooklyn and seven on. Cincin
nati. In games he Giants are one
and one-half behind Cincinnati and
Brooklyn.
, Cleveland and Xcw York did not
play in the American league, whils
Chicago defeated j St. Louis and
thereby gained three points on the
first and second teams." As a result
there are only 11 points ' between
Cleveland in first place and Chicago1
in third placer The Indians have a
half game lead over the Yankees and
the latter have the same advantage
over the White Sox. The final in
tersectionat series of the . season
opens in both leagues today. - "
Cincinnati in the National league
and New York in the American have
the hardest work cut out forthem
among the contenders. The real test
for the Reds will come next week,
when Manager Moran's team will
face the Superbas in Brooklyn for
three games ariekthen come to New
York for four fames with the Giants.
The Yankees also will be obliged
to meet their nearest competitors
Cleveland and . Chicago on Voreign
soil. The New York team will start
under a decided disadvantage be
cause of the accident to Ping P.odie,
who fractured his right ankle ii the
exhibition game at Pittsburgh, and
because the Yankee owners have de
cided not to use Pitcher Carl Mays
in the Cleveland series. .
Duffy Lewis, thercgular left
nclder.-has not entirely recovered
from an injury o his leg. It is be
lieved that ftam.Vick. utility out
fielder, will lie pressefl into -active
service to fake Bodie's dace.
