Jimmy Callahan. who won fame
as a. pitcher. outfielder and manager
in the 11111101'3. was known in base-
ball circles during his big league
career :15 11. smart player.
Callahan first achieved fame as a
pitcher. Then, because of his great
batting ability and smart basema-
ning, he turned outfielder. 111s ca-
reel was not unlike that of Babe
llu h.
j'hile Callahan lacked the slug-
gi g power of 1111111. 111-. was just as
valuable to his club in other de-
partments of play.
When Callahan retired as man-
ager of the White Sex, he quit the
game, went into the contracting
business and is now said to be “dis-
gusting ly” wealthy.
Callahan. by the hay. in recalling
his departure irom the game for
good. doesn't say "when I retired
as manager" of the White Sox." He
puts it this way:
“When L‘mniskey fired
manager. etc."
Despite the! fact that wealth has
i o a
lllC {I}?
come his way through other chan-
nels than baseball. he has pevcr
lost his great interest in the game.
GREATEST PITCHERS
Recently. while discussing. with
Callahan the batting spree that the
major leagues have been experienc-
ing'for several years and a. corres-
ponding decline in pitching. I‘asked
him what pitchers be regarded as
the best.
Haring umpired for Callahan as
a. player and manager, and knowing
his oplnlng would be interesting. I
anxiously awaited his sizeup.~
"You lnust dl'.ide pitchers into
two classes." replied Callahan.
"First. pitchers who haw: good stuff
but are exceptionally nnart. Sec-
ond. pitchers who have so much
stuff that it. is not necessary for
them to worry about the strength
or weakness of the opposition.
“I place Christy Mathewson and
Clarke Griffith in the first class;
\‘Valter Johnson and 'llubc‘ Wad-
dell tn the second.
"To my way of thinking Clulsty
prion wu the smartest pitch-
er that ever tried to feel a batter
or umpire. Griffith was a close sec-
ond and probably had a. few more
tricks in his bag than ‘Matty.’
“These two pitchers catered to
your weakness only. In a pinch they
always had something in reserve
and better yet had the courage to
take a chance in a. crisis.
"In a tough spot you never got a
cripple. 'Matiy' would give you his
fadcaway or slow one with the
count three and two and the bases
loaded. Griffith would hand you his
sharp-breaking curve.
“Walter Johnson and Waddcll
had so much natural stuff they
could throw them by even the
greatest of batters."
O 0
Most managers would be willing
to take a chance on 11. pitching staff
of Mathewson. Griffith. Johnson
and Waddell.
O .1. O
FOOTBALL SHIFT.
Jumping from baseball to foot-
ball, I feel that one recent change
111111113 by the rules committee is go-
ing to make many more thrills this
fall.
I have reference to the kickoff.
lnstcad of putting the ball in play
from the 50-yard line. as was the
case last season, it will again be
kicked from the 4U-yar line and
without a. tee.
Kicking from the 50-yard line
ca lsed a majority of the boots to
pa 3 over the goal line for a touch-
buck. Instead of making for the
running back of the ball as hoped.
it did just thh opposite.
A: a matter of fact most of the
time the referee was putting me
ball in play from scrimmage on the
20-yard line after the touchbnck.
The kickoff really didn't mean 11
thing.
This year kicking from the 40-
yard line without a tee, inuchbnck
rrlnys should be greatly in the min-
ority. hence I look for a revival of
plays pulled from th kickoff.
No play in football carries :11
greater thrill than a lung runi
through a broken field for a touch-

Up to that 111111: Alciv’cchnic's co-

of .1132. 0f the victories. 49 were

teams and 30 1n brushes with clubs
representing the west.
The 46 defeats were divided

division. The Pirate success in
games with eastern units was .645
and with those in the west just .612.

Against the Giants the Pittsburg
machine grabbed 1! wins against
scvcn \vhipplngs. It repeated the
performance in clashes with the
Braves. Cincinnati was distanced
11 times in 18 starts and the Phil-
lies 11 in 19.
Only one club—~Chlcago—was
able to outplay the Buccaneers up
to the first of September. The Cubs
won nine tilts while dropping eight.

Giants and Reds—they came

top heights by using only the second

In holding the Cardinals to but

The Pirates at the start of the
final month of the chase still had
five tilts to play with the Cubs. And
by winning {our of them would
have a pretty good chance of com-
pleting the season without losing a
single series to any other team over
the entire campaign.
