The A's have lost their first three games of the season.

The Athletics have been talked of as the club that would defeat the Yankees, especially when the American League champions were performing so badly during the spring exhibition games. Naturally, they were not pleased by three straight defeats, while the Tanks were winning three in a row to take their accustomed place at the top of the heap. -Most of the remarks, it is said, hate been directed at Ty Cobb and Tris Sieaker, veteran outfielders, who are no longer able to lake care of their respective outfield positions as they once did. And unless the Aa find a wiuuing streak and Cobb and Speaker bit far above the U500 nark the goiug is likely to be rough for them.

The wildcat has been tamed. "I suppose people will say I'm crazy for suggesting a match between Sid and Garcia. But didn't they say the same thing about me when I signed my boy to fight Billy Grime? And they we're to sure that Grime would beat him they offered odds of 3 to 1 against Sidney. And whether Sid was fouled or not in the third round the fact remains that be came back and won.
