Telephone 1081 BRINGING UP FATHER AGAINST THE GIANTS Cicotte and Taber Will Do the Twirling Against Mc- Graw's Team. ---- | The statement made by Clarence | Rowland, manager of the White Sox, | that his real pitching™"staff" consisted | of two men, may Le a prediction that | only that many men will be used by| the erstwhile "busher" in his battle to | trim John McGraw for the world's| championship ! It is certainly a fact that Eddie Ci- | cotte will start the first game in Chi- | cago Saturday, but there is nothing | certain about who will pitch the sec- | ond If Cicotte should win it is| probable Red Faber another right- | hander, will be sent against the Giants. | If Cicotte should lose, it is safe to pre- ! dict that Reb Russell will get the as- | signment. Taking Rowland at his| word, then, it is equally safe to say| that Cicotte w.ll work the third game | --in New York---and that his succes sor on the mound for the fourth game ! | will be the man who pitched the sec- | {ond game in Chicago. | There is a certain degree of uncer- | tainty in such deductions, for the man | | to pitch the second game might take | { such a drubbing as to make it certain | he would not come back for the fourth | | game There .s no such uncertainty | in the case of Cicotte, however I: 1s | { almost a foregone conclusion that the | | veteran righthander will pitch a good game, and, even if he should lose, it | is easy to see he will go back again. | The man who pitches the first game i --both for New York and Chicago | will have a chance at the third con { test, for there will be Sunday and | Monday intervening between the first | and third games. | John McGraw's statement that Slim | Sallee will open for him must be taken at its face value. Rowland and | his men believe Sallee will give them the toughest opposition. However: the Sox have been successful against | southpaws of Sallde's disposition, | while right-handers of the mould of | Poll Perritt have been reasonably suc- | cessful against the new American | I.eague champions In New York| there is a feeling that Perritt or Rube | Benton will open the series, with the other of the pair to pitch the second | It is not seriously believed | that Ferd Schupp will start a game | until the home crowd is rooting be-! hind him. . | The White Sox wind up their sea- | son to-day in New: York, and will | start west, pausing at Cleveland to | play an exhibition game, and then go- ing to Chicago to play another with | the same, club. Season Was a Failure. Montreal lacrosse club and follow- ers have evidently begun to realize what a blunder they committed when they forced the Ottawa and Cornwall teams out of National Union this season. Commenting on the final game between the National and Shamrocks teams, the Gazette said: "This match brought the local lacrosse season to a close. The sea- son has hardly been a success as far as lacrosse goes, owing to the drop- ping out of the Ottawa and Cornwall teams, when President Lally, of the National Lacrosse Union, tendered his resignation, through his orders and rulings being unheeded." > WORLD'S SERIES FIGURES # FROM PAST YEARS. % The National Baseball Com- mission took charge of the world's Series in 1905, formulat ed rules for it and has been in charge of it ever since. Twelve series have been play- ed since that time, of which the American Léague has won seven and the National League five. Sixty-six games have been played, of which the American League has won thirty-tliree and the National League thirty- one, There have been two tie games. The length of a series has averaged five and one-half The National League has scored 223 runs and the Amer- ican League 222. This is a total of 445 runs, which gives # an average of about 6 8-11 % runs per game. # The winning clubs have * scored 273 runs, or an average + of a little over 4 runs per game. 4 the losing clubs have scored # 172 runs, or an average of # about 2 5-8 runs per game.

Then he added: "The White Sox constitute the greatest Short series ball club in the world to-day. They have proved this consistently throughout the season. They are playing better ball right now than at any time during the season, and every man on the team is in the best of con- dition." Rowland admitted the Sox fear Sallee more than any other Giant twirler, adding that "the boys will be disappointed if a left-hander does not start the opening game for the Giants." He inferred that Cicotte, the best twirler of the White Sox would hur! in the opener, "Buck" Weaver will absolutely be in the line up," said Row- land, but he would not say whether he would replace Ris- Perg at short or McMullen at third. "The Giants are certainly a great ball club," he said by way of parting. "They had proved this by the way they walked through the National League." SASS AEE SSE Cup offered For Race Between Thoroughbreds. dt is practically settled now that Omar Khayyam and Hourless will clash again during the Laurel, Mary- land, race meeting, which will con- tinue until October 31st under the auspices of the Maryland State Fair. E. B, McLean, a wealthy Washing- ton owner, has offered to put up a $2.500 gold cup and the Fair Aseo- clation will add a stake, The dis- tance and date have not yet been set, but the big contest may take place on Saturday, October 13th, over a mile and a half course. It will finally decide the three year old championship, now claimed by both Wilfrid Viau, who owns Omar Khayyam, and August Belmont, whose property Hourless is, Pension For De Oro.
