Chandler Egan and Jludolph Wllhlm agreed between themselves that they would abolish the stymie as far as the roommn daIon agreed upon admitted This simply meant that either player had tie rlxht to

made might have resulted In their both being disqualified But of course no protest was made Nevertheless It wa not good example for the two leading players on the Pacific Coast to take the lair lato

Angeles but who Is now in New Tork thus compares the majors and minors In Just what re pact does major and minor league baseball differ 1 a query likely te propound Itself In th mind ot th averags fan es pecially th fololwers ot a big or aranlnatlon Ilk th Coast League wham mast nt the nlarsrs ar either just going tip or nave recenuy come back At tlma In any miner league you feel that vou se as rood baseball as It 1 possible for human hands and head to produce superlative dlxsy fielding and all else thet goes to make a finely balanced baseball classic But immediately you witness a major league gam you eense a differ enee very pronounced but not at first easy to define This difference Ilea chiefly In tbe speed and the character oi tae hitting Not only do the men hustle more on th bases and la the field bait they are continually prodded up by tb umpires in taking or leaving the field or In coming to th plat Then I would say th men average from on and a half to two stride faster getting down to first and gaining th subsequent bases Playera Tk Long Chances Thl speed1 and the fact that they must bold thalf beads up to bold their Jobs enables them to take an extra base on th slightest faux pas by a fielder Let an outfielder mishandle a ground ball tor tbe fraction of a aac ond and th runner bears down on the next bass with a burst of Speed and often makes It The result I flash after flash ot brilllsnt and almost blinding action One Is able to Sstigs this speed somewhat by the Inference in scoring On must more attentive to the game in the majors or he I liable to lose aplay entirely for the unexpected predominate This had of speed in th majors also is seen In the field where the sverage man probably will go from three to five feet further to eaca side after a ball On the basis of the larger figure the four InfleUers win cover an aggregate territory of aiproaimnieiy iorty leer more man the corresponding men In the minors although the difference In a league cf the Coasts caliber nrobablv will not average as great by more than nail Play MecWcalJ Perfect Mechanically baaebali probably I aa perfect In the minors now or at least the larger ones and frequently more smooth becaus a great chances are not taken ran best describe major league baseball as both better and worse than minor Batting If anything ha the edge up here The pitcher must use everything he ba en the ball all the time As a rule there are no soft spots In tJe batting order Once he begins to weaken It Is plain murder Tbe men step Into the ball and the cannonading Is on This explains the high average of change In the box her When they begin hitting a pitcher the manager cannot wait In the hope that he may come back In tb next round Owing to the severity of the batting the game un TONT

the courage and ability of that young man Dempsey Is apparently going to make New York city his headquarters while pursuing his campaign of eliminating aspirants It Is more than likely that the first
