THlfr WASHINGTON TIMES, 8UNIUY, OCTOBER 13, 1912. 19 Marquard Is Giants' 6Wy Salvation JOHNSON THINKS MARQUARD SHOULD ASCEND MOUND TO SAVE SERIES FOR GIANTS Collins Will Probably Be Opponent of New York Southpaw. By WAITER JOHNSON. NEW YOIIK, Oct H.-Rub Marquard vl tmv ColllnH should be the Ditching battle tomorrow, and It would not sur-j prlso me at all to see Collins aereat me Glunta' southpaw. Unless It li a raw, chilly day, Collins should provo himself closer to what the experts figured he was before this series began, lie Is one of the steadiest left-handers In the American League, and, unless tied up by the cold, should bother the Giants tomorrow more than ho did last week. Marquard Is the logical choice of the Giants for this game here tomorrow, lie rrtW start, though, wlh one day's rest less than Collins. This counts for a lot, too. In a series like this. Stahl will have Wood wormed up and ready to ko In In cas of need, but ltlilnk that the confidence and aggressiveness of the ned Sox will be enough to carry Collins through alone. Warming Up. Since the setles began In New York last Tuesday Manager Jake Stahl has Ilcdlent down In the narmlng-up pit ready In case some pitcher went bad. Jake did not think that It was good baseball to send Bedlent In to start one of the early games of the series. Bedlent broke Into the series last Wed nesday when he relieved Hall at the be ginning of the eleventh and last Inning, and the following day ho replaced "Buck" O'Brien at the end of the eighth. Although only six men faced him In the two Innings he -pitched. It cannot be stated that his twirling was anything; but mediocre. He hit tuo men. Issued one base on balls and allowed one hit. After tno such Innings. Jake must have known that Bedlent had tho confidence In his own ability, and the nere to go through and make trouble i or any team in ine Dusiness. During the American League season the players on the circuit would all alt on the bench and tell vou that this Ilcdlent did not have anything, but the majority of them went up to the bat and either popped to the infield or fanned, for there were only Tew men who hit Bedlent' offerings on the nose nil season. Bcdlent's success as a tnlrler Is due to tho fact that ho looks easy to the batters that hi: had balls and therefore do not get a good hold of the ball. Bedlent has a nice, fast ball, but his curve Is very ordinary end Is usually wlda of the plate. Nothing ever bothers Bedlent, for he Is even harder to hit with menon tho bases than when they are clear. The Giants went to the bat with the Idea that they could knock tho ball out of the lot any time they Baw tit and: Just as the batters In the American League, they fell down. The llrst man up In four of the nine Innings reached first but MoGraw illd not believe that Bedlent was capabto of fooling the nrxt Giant and the hitter was Instructed to lilt straight away, and with me excep tion mo Datter railed to move amng the man on base. McOraw'i Fault. After Murray had walked, Merkle sent a swinging bunt down tho third base line and while Gardner was throw ing him out Murray took second. It was McGraw's failure to lU've hit men sncrlltce that lost today's gnmo for the Bedient Ready to Enter Box in Case Stahl Needs Him. hard to put Bedlent up In the air, but the Bed Sox twlrler remained cool and seemed moro effective alter the alanU had started their talk from the bench. Bedlent's pitching was by far the best seen in mis series, even Better man that displayed by Joe Wood or Mar nuard. He was In serious holes and there were few balls hit hard off him and the team naa but few hard chances. Bedlent had something an every ball he pitched, and he knew what ha was doing with every ball ha threw, pitching a very cool game, from start to finish. Hugh was especially effective against tne men wno nave Deen doing the hit- ttnn alniiA la.l 'Pit asuau niiaMalH T! Giants, and It was his utter disregard , snodgraBS. Murray, and Herxog. The" for the "suicide" play fiat lost him rrlday's game In New York. McGraw was expected to "pull" things in this series that would send tho Bud Box team crazy trjlng to "dope" out what was coming off next "lip to the pres ent he has not shown anything; In fact neither team 'has shown unythlng out of the ordinary. What proved to be the Red Sox win ning run was sent ovr the rubber when Larry Doyle nulled i boot on Speakers' grounder In the third Inning. The ball took a bad hop and went between Lar ry's legs, but as errors are Just as much a part of baseball as the bats, the real cause of the loss of the game reverts back to McGraw on account of his failure to sacrifice. Snodgrass had a run In with the crowd In center field before tho game and the entire bleachers "booed" him during the entire game and this greatly affect ed his batting, for no man Is capable of doing his best when the crowd Is "tiding" him as they did Snodgrnss to day. The game was not as spectacular as the others of the series, but It was an Interesting one from the spectacular point of lew. Both pitchers had lino control and very few balls were pitched. The Bed Sox hit the ball hard during the whole game, but were unfortunate In driving them directly at ome fielder. Every time that Harry Hooper has faced Mat how son, he has hit the fa mous pitcher hard and safe and today was no exception. "Hoop" came through with a single and a triple, both last named two popped up weak Infield lllcs. three of the four times they went to bat. and lin made Snodgrass look like a "busher." At the finish the, number of hits made by the Giants totaled to but three. The wonderful ef-ficthenc-M of Mathewson was that ha hud absolutely perfect control at all limes, and that he continually out guessed the Bed Sox batters. The two triples which broke up the game were made off Matty's fast ball, but after that he did not put his speed across the plate. He kept his curve In tho right place, and could neither break u hook across tne ruDDer or outside. Curve Breaks. Many times ho put tin Bed Sox In a hole by shooting up a curve on the first ball. Matty used fine Judgment on Gardner, breaking his curve at the bat ter ond low, while when Lewis and Stahl were up he broke the curve on the outside corner of the plate and about knee high, with the result that neither of these men hit the ball past the Infield. With Speaker up. he used a high curve. During the last Ave Innings Just three men went to bat In each Inning, but every Bed Sox batter with the excep tion of Wagner, who struck out In the fourth, hit the ball. Mathewson put tho ball over at the right time, and when tho Sox thought he wai going to put It across he "crossed" them and broke It out or on the Inside. The Giants, aside from Doyle s trror, gave Matty won of which were solid drives. Mathewson ilerful support and cut down many has always made the mistake of pitch- drives that were labeled hits Inc Hooper high balls on the outside. Bnv Collins and Rube Marquard -will for Hooper's weakness Is a low ball battle at the Polo Grounds Mondat uft and high ones on the Inside. ' ornoon, and the Giants arc confident McGraw and his tribe got a trifle too that they will be back In Boston next noisy for "Silk" O'Loughlln. and he put Tuesday doing business at the Fenway a quietus on them. The Giants tried Turk. I IN STEEPLECHASE AT LAUREL TRACK Scratching of The Welkin Takes Only Classy Entry Out of Race. The J1.000 Chevv Chase Steeplechase, the feature of the event in the running of yesterday's card at Laurel, had but four starters, and these of rather mod erate caliber. The scratching of The Welkin took the only high class animal entered, out of It and left your Uncle William Garth, of Charlottesville. Va , who is First race Two-j ear-olds; selling; gettlnp his share of the KOod things lnirBe goo; five and a half furlongs stable connections were sunremoly con fident. As In his palmy days, the old fellow took the track at the rise of the barrier and set a merry pace. In the stretch he was challenged by Amalfl, and though he struggled gallantly, was compelled to succumb to his younger and fresher rival. It was youth against old age, and. as usual, youth tri umphed. It Is probable Superstition has seen his best days. Johnny Pangle, whose Grovcnor won tho opening race of the afternoon, was a happy man yesterday. In addition to tne victory or ms gooa con, ne was felicitating himself on the news thut a daughter had been born to the house of Pangle. Charlie Hayes, one of the best-known of the old guard of bookmakers, died yesterday In Philadelphia as tho result of an operation. Mr. Hayes was noted for his quiet manners and politeness and was much esteemed by the public and his fellows. His last appearance on the block was at the lute Havre de Grace mretlng. Bounder showed a nice performance, and finished a fast-going third. This horse Is getting back to his old form, apd jvill bo dangerous from now on over a distance of ground. Tomorrow's Race Card.

Ho allowed Idle Michael and Black Bridge to race themselves to death n front and then came on and ran over them at the end Idle Michael was, perhaps, the best horse In tho race, hut his chances were ruined br Mr. Glasscock'B weird ride. Bob Taylor brought Shannon River up with a rush at the end and got second money for Colonel Parr. Many Surprises. The day was full of surprises and up sets. Not one favorite won during tho afternoon, and the talent was badly worsted. There were Borne reversals that caused much comment, and. In general, the afternoon woe not at all Ailpms Express, satisfactory to the wise brigade. Hedge's performance In the all-ages handicap was an eye-opener. This filly won one of the fnstest races of the meeting, running tho mile and a six teenth In 1M1 2-5, the first mile In 1 37 1-5, beating the favorite, Dr. Duen ner and a classy field. Last Saturday Hedge, with the came weight up was beaten by Colonel Ashmeade and Amalfl, and that day the first mile was run in 1:39 1-5... The meeting between Sprite, rrog legs, and Worth was one of the notable happenings of tho afternoon. The win ner, Froglegs, was much the best, and had something In reserve at the end. Sprite showed a lot of early speed, but faded away at the finish. It was whls. percd about In the paddock thut the filly hod ben bleeding In her work. Worth Is rounding to, and ft may bo that he will get back to his best form tiffnrn the season closes. Onn of thu big disappointments of the afternoon was the defeut of Bight llusy in the heiond lace.
