MACK’S CHOICE.
If asked to pick the five greatest
ball players in the history of the
American League. Mr. Van. whom
would you select?
In matters pertaining to baseball
IV have the greatest regard for the
.‘opinlon of Connie Mack. Al the. tes-
timonial given to Ty Cobb by the
city of Detroit on the occasion of
his twentieth altllivcrsury as an
American League player. Mack
spoke tllusly on the. subject:
“Ty Cobb is not only the. greatest
player in the history of the Ameri-
can League. but of all time. His
achievements on the diamond have
been so notable that I doubt if the
game ever' produced his equal. cer-
tainly not his superior.
“For a close second choice I would
name Eddie Collins 01' the Chicago
White Sex. :1 must renulrkable play—
er. who scents destined to be as
great a manager.
“Tris Speaker comes next in my
estimation. then Walter Johnson.
followed by Giorge Sister.
“There you have my opinion;
yours is perhaps just as good. My
rating of" the players is based on
performance and length of service."

Certainly Mr. Muck's‘selections
have in no way injured his l‘t‘pllillv
lien for being an authority on all
matters pertaining to baseball.

Scores of famous players of other
days Were gathered around the fes-
tive board at the Cobb testimonial.
It was only natural that they should
. reminisce. .
Great. feats and players of the past
were discussed. Likewise the “bone-
head" plays were gone over. Funny
quips of the scribes that had been
pulled at the expense of many of
those present were recalled and
laughed at.
Jimmy Callahan. great player in
his day. was voted the “'Brown

the next day when he read the fol-
lowing caustic sentence on Bodie's

('obli Delivers.
Ty Cobb believes in liling up to
precedent. lie likes to finish any-
thing just as well as he started it.
On August 30. 1905. Cobb nu-IJ
his American League debut as a
member of the. Detroit 'l‘ygnrs. He
played his first game against New
:l'ork with Jack Clieshro. famous
spitballer. doing the pitching.
He celebrated the occasion by
making a twwbaso hit.
It was a peculiar coincidence that
oil the twentieth anniversary of ills
big league career. he. should again
be facing one of the few remaining
spitball pitchers. Jack Quinn. of the
Philadelphia Athletics. ‘
Now union has a most. deceptive
spitball and 'l‘y has always admit-
ted he had no particular love for
that style of pitching. .
However. just to prove that he
plays no favorites and the old bat-
ting eye is as good as ever. he hit
for two bases on his first trip to the
plate. it was almost an exact dupli<
cation of the lift with which he
started his major league career.
I t ‘
Cobb's batting record. covering a
period of 20 years. is a. font that will
probably never be equalled in the
.ll‘istory’ of the game.

ii‘rom a sprint for the championship.
the American League pennant race
within two weeks has turned iltto a
triumphant Washington march. The
dazed Athletics now flail in the dust
of twelve straight defeats. nine full
games behind the leaders.
Mack's team on its home field yes-
terday lost to Washington twice. 2 to
1 and 7 to ti. After a masterfully
pitched-opening game by Walter
Johnson, the Senators measured
blows with tho Athletl8a in a slug-
ging bee and cattle out on top when
the Quaker infield. crumpled.
The Pirates, riding in front of the
Giants with a lea-J of 8 1-2 games,
maintained their advantage by split-
tlng with the Cubs. The Corsairs
outbatted their foes in a morning hit
least. 8—5, a total of thirty-two
safeties being amassed by the two
clubs. but. in the afternoon the Cubs
made 16 hits and won. 9 to 8.
The Tigers obtained a toe-hold on
fourth place til the American League
by clawing the Browns. 7 to 6. in
the morning brush. but. Sislcr's club
in the afternoon drove Detroit back
into the second division again after
eleven innings. 4 to 3. The defeat
snapped Detroit's string of ten
straight victories.
