the tacJoma times
where tlie critics declared t"hey
belong, and growing etmnger
Branch Rickey, college man
theorist, and sportsman has the
Browns above most of his high,
priced fompetitors. and so cloae
behind the Athletics that a week
of luck might bring about the
mlrai le and place the Brawns st
the top.
Miller Muggins, with a team
which at the start of the season
seemed doomed to last place, is
keeping away from the bottom
and 'laying the best bail af an>
of ths Western teams barring tha
rejuvenated Reds.
While it is hardly probable
that the Browns caa stay In the
first division, or that tha Car
dinals can hope to remain a
their present station, their sue
cess thus far is a distinct tri
umph for the managers.
Ia the spring Rickey, himself
an untried manager, had about
the worst looking bunch of ma
terial of aay leader in either Jt
the old leagues possibly except
lag Chance and Hersog. His
pitchers had shown strength. H*
had four that in fact ware of
championship caliber if with
strong teams. He was wlthon 1
aa Infield, had tae remnants . ."*
a broken outfield, and a exieri
neotat catching stsff.
Rickey took l.eary. a proaiis-.
Ing recruit, snd made a Oral
baseman of merit. He wortseal
Wares, who waa laat fair oa tha
Coast and gave little promise ot
major league strength, lata a
good man. Ha made a ball play
er of Del Howard, manager of
Baa rraaeiseo. But his moat
surprising success haa been with
Clarence Walker. This boy wa*
with Washington when oaly aa
Immature youth. He had apeeil
and little else—and now he is
up there with Cobb In batting,
and is fielding better than ever.
There you are outside of pitch
ers and catchers ths Brown i
have scarcely a man any other
team in the league would want
aa a regular—and they are near
tbe top and still fighting. The
answer Is that brains aud hust
ling count.
INS AND OUTS
Boeckel waa la the grand
stand yesterday. Ha Is out
temporarily with a alight attack
of blood poisoning.
Some race we're having. Van
couver jumped to the lop yester
day with Spokane and Seattle
only a game or so behind.
I.enaett who played three
games on first base for the Tiger*
the last time Vancouver was hen
is working for an uncle in Spo
kane.
Stokke has played good ball
i In left field, at first base and on
tbe keystone corner, in the shot*
time that he has been with the
Tigers.
Which Is the best third base
man. Ouigni or McMullln?
"Over the garden wall"—a
three-act tragedy staged by Ben
der and Ouigni. These two play
era have knocked four fouls over
the left field fence this week that
have just missed being fair by
inches.
Evidently there Is another
pitcher on the Tiger staff. Man
agerial worries you know.
Tacoma and Portland will play
a double-header at Athletic park
Sunday afternoon. The first
game will start at 2 p. m.
