Its natural that Tho query a sport writer should hear a dozen limes a Flay Down hero is do you Thinh of the chances of this Toam or that. Team or individual and the natural query in this fair City is will Tho giants on my first trip Here this Spring i. Intentionally refrained from making Liny predictions along the line of answering Yuch a query. Tho giants have been champions so Lone that in is to see them As Sulci. They feel natural in the role. They themselves with the Confidence that years at thy top will brin.5 to men in any profession or business. So much has been writ ten about and around most of their members that Ono is too prone to accept every member of the team As i Star. So t decided to withhold any opinions until i had seen More of he other clubs in these parts. I had seen but part of them then. ,-5incn than t have studied the other clubs. I feel that i have a saner slant on things. And now looking Over raw s team for a second time my feeling is that the Law of averages is the main stumbling Block to Weir Road to their fifth National league Pennant. The club retained Tho Reserve in Field strength it built up in the last two campaigns. It has added re serve batting strength needed at times last season and the pitching staff has been strengthened. This Story is not going to Deal with the comparative amount of strength added by the various clubs. Suffice it to , the a iavits who were too Sood for the other seven clubs last season have strengthened their weak spots. Only Tho season will Tell How added strength is to help them. The same holds True of the other clubs. But the Law of averages is against Mcgraw. No club has Ever won five straight pennants. Only two clubs in the history of the game have won four Stra Light. Boston won that j cum Oer in a Row in the old National association. St. Louis performed the feat in the old american association. Crew managers have even flirted with three straight flags. Connie Mack has never won three. Miller Iggino made the Only to fall five consecutive times. Get the judge Doe Salt at the Barrier a Hen lie tried to make it four straight. The Law. Of aver a pcs was against Mcgraw when to won his fourth. It seers almost impossible that he can repeat that feat the league in Check for live Gruel in campaigns. Yet Why should he the Pittsburg pirates loom once Riore lust As they always Onn Atit possibilities. But it is the history of the last four years that they have indeed the punch when it Vas needed. The cubs have had a Rigley millions in past years in their frantic efforts to halt tiie Al Coral machine. This year they have been hit hard by the in jury to Rabbit Maranville. And to it goes through the contender.1. And this team on which Mcgraw ,.ls counting for the drive hold his throne presents something new in baseball. Usually a team is at the Peak of its play when it wins us first pen Nant. The very next season sees one or More of the main cogs in that machine crumbling under the Pace. Teams repeat though because the machine As a whole clings together. They carry on under the impetus of cd lariats 1021. He is now the first Campaign. Then the machine cracks. That is the history of the same. A Mcgraw however has carried spare parts All through the four years last. He finds him Sec now with a Young Ball a club built the stress Pennant play. The Young team of today a formed of men. To threw into the breach in seasons past to Stem the defeat. Frank i o Frisch. Rosy Ryan. Travis Daclison. Lack Bently. A Rudelle Lindstrom Lew Wilson. Bill Terry. Virgil Barnes. These men stepped in. When his Outfield Liis infield or his pitching trembled and cracked. Now they have integral parts of his machine. Frank Frisch his first full year in. The infield the first year the just approaching the Zenith of his career at Twenty seven. Virgil Barnes Young brother Jess was finding himself in the first couple of campaigns. He is Twenty eight.
