The pennant aspects of the present National League race have befogged
even the dope of the umpire?. We were talking? over a few details of this
famous flag hurly-burly with one of the leading arbitrators of the game, who
has operated among the zig-zag fortunes of the different club? and has had
unusual opportunity to make observations. His comment outlined the ritua
tion thoroughly.
"I have seen a number of pennant races In my day," said this arbiter,
"but nothing like the present one. I change my mind ns to the October
winner about four times a week. In one series I will be certain that
Pittsburgh will land the prize. They will furnish every mark of champions.
In the next series against a weaker club the Pirates will look like tail enders.
! The same dope is true of all the others. The Braves, Phillies and Dodgers
will look almost unbeatable for three ?r four game?, and then will cut in
with a series of Class X baseball. In one series one of those contenders
1 will look strong in the box, at bat and in the field. In the next the pitching
will be bad, the batting weak and the fielding ragged. I've never Been any?
thing even nppproaching these sudden ghlfts from good to bad form and
back again."
Lack of Consistency.
"The lack of consistency this season," he continued, "has been beyond
any past turn of the game. Only four clubs have shown any consistent
striking strength and these four for only short distances. Tin? Phillies
played grand baseball for the first three weeks of the race. They have
barely broken even since. The Cubs had one drive for ?hree weeks that made
them look formidable. They have never been anywhere since. The Dodgers
had the longest stretch of all when they won twenty-one out of twenty-six
games playing pennant baseball for a full month before they slipped. And
the Braves had their turn in July, when at one stage they won aomething
like fourteen out of six*een games. But outside of these few instances no
club has been able to hit off any consistent pace and hold It."
Picking the Winner.
When wc put up the proposition of attempting to pick the winner the
umpire balked. "
"There are too many 'ifs' In the way," he ?aid. "In spite of Pittsburgh'*
bad showing against the Reds, if it she can put away a fair record on this
trip I believe she has a fine chance with those twenty-three home games
through September; for with Mamaux, Harmon, Adams and McQuillan Clarke
has a line pitching staff, and he also hr.s the fastest club in the circuit. In
order to crowd Pittsburgh out Brooklyn, Philadelphia ami Boston must hit
a fast clip st home between now and September, The club that doesn't is
out of it. There i :.'; ? no Ifh room now for any club to have a home slump
and make up the gap later on. Of the three it wouldn't surprii-.e me in the
slightest to see the race come down to a final clash between Brooklyn and
Philadelphia, with Pittsburgh close behind. I'o.non doesn't look anywhere
near as good a.- she did back in July."
The Tip-off.
The main tip-off as to form, dope and the twist thereof in the National
League is shown by the records.
The two clubs that leiul the batting are St Louis and Cincinnati, the
only tail-end contentions.
The best fielding club, by the records, Is Cincinnati. Here we have the
Reds second in batting, first in tielding and last in the race. Yet batting
and fielding ore supposed to be two fairly important point? of baseball as tha
game is played.
No One-Man Reign.
There is no one-man reign now in either golf or tennis in this country.
Last ?vimmer McLoughlin beat Brookes and Wilding, but Williams beat Mc
Loughlin and Church beat Williams.
So far this season Clarence Griffin has beaten Williams; McLoughlin
! has beaten Williams; Bi-hr has beaten McLoughlin and Willisms has b taten
Behr.
The leaders have all been beaten both last season and this. McLough?
lin, rated as the greatest of all living tennis players, has been dropped by
two of his countrymen in two important matches and tho?e who beat him
have fallen before the charge of others.
The same hoi.Is for golf. Ouimet beat Travers/ at Ekwanok last fall,
but Travers countered by beating Ouimet at medal play in the recei I
where the Massachusetts star was supposed to have the winr.irg edge. Travis
beat Travers at Apawami* in June.
?- will happen ? .' 'Is in lawn tennis nnd at Detroit in
within the next fortnight should add many interesting pages to the history
of American sport. I- or in neither sport is there any one entry whose
prowess is all prevalent.

John \V. Schorr's Lindenthal, after
havin-* J. T. I.ooney's The Grader
