Bresnahan s Only Break ie as Trader Was When He Sent Is Roger Bresnahan good trader? This question suggests itself as a . gequence to Mrs. itton s recent re- fu al to sanction a deal Bresnahan had all but closed with Cincinnati. This particular trade involved the transfer of Miller Huggins and George Ellis to Redland for Mike Mitchell and Charley McDonald: When Mrs. Britton vetoed swap, Man- also ager Bresnahan promptly announced his intention of making mo more deals, Now the fans are wondering whether the St. Louis elub will suf- fer by Roger's threatened inactivity in the trading market. s Bresnahan's record as a trader since his ascension to the manager - ial throne at Robison field would tend to prove that he is capable of looking after the interests of any club in this department. There's just one deal on the books, put there by Bresnahan, that does not now stand out as. an advantageous move , for the Cards. That's practically one of the first made by the Cardin- al manager: Bobby Byrne to Pitts- burg. for (ap; Batten, sud ABen Storke, Barbeau has been shuffled into ths discard, Storke is dead. Byme still is one of the premier th rd sackers of the game. But there was an angle when it was made that many of the fans didn t see pro- perty at the time... Byrne was not a5 good when 2. St. Louis as he, later proved himself in Pittsburg. It was an old case of a change of scenery making a much improved played of the man involved. But for this one trade, which on its lace now looks like a bad one Bresnahan made many that rebound- ed to tHe success of the local club. For instance, he swapped Fred Beebe, a second-class pitcher, and Allan Storke to Cincinnati for Miller Huggins, Rebel Oakes and Frank Corridon. Roger turned over Beebe, who was a favorite, for the three dis- cards: They played great ball Hag- gins and Oakes. Later Bresnahan palmed off Chap- py Charles for Mike Mowrey. Char- les was relegated to the American Association, but. Mike, of the titian hair, still is guarding the far cornor at Dobison field. Byrne to Pirates Then Bresnalian claimed Steve Evans from New York, and converted the Cleveland comedian from a first- baseman to one of the hardest-hitting outfielders in the parent body. Mc- Graw had turned Evans down. Later Bresnahan claimed Hillis via waiver from Cincinnati after Rube hi passed up by Griffith. Ellis widelivered. Bresnahan is responsible for the presence of-Ivey Wingo on the Cards. Roger went down to Greenwood, S. C., to purchase Claude Derrick, now of the Athletics. Connie Mack beat: Roger to Derrick, but Bresnahan got. one peck at Wingo and bought him for 500. Wingo now is a 7,000 as- set. However, the deals that Bresnahan idn t make are far,more interesting than those he put through. While the Giants were in St, Louis on their last western trip the details : of the trade which McGraw and Bres- nahan engineered in 1909, only to have it blocked by the late Stanley ee were given out. It came up right after Bresnahan bad taken eom- mand. McGraw wanted Koney, and Bresnahan coaxed the little Napoleon into Parting with Fred Merkle, Fred Snodgrass, Art Fietcher, John Devore and Leon Ames as payment for the Big Train. Roger took the deal to Stanley Robison and asked him to 0..K. it, Robison refused. He wan afraid to part with Koney, although Bresna; han was getting all the better of the deal. Merkle now is Koney s closest rival in baseball. Snodgrass is a ood outfielder and a dangerous hit- ter. Fletcher, Devore and Ames were good enough to help win a pennant last year for the Giants. It'is said that Stanley Robison wept alter he realized that he had blocked a good trade. A year later he turned his elub over to Bresnahan and let him do all the swapping. Then it was that Roger put through deals for Huggins, Mowrey, Oakes, Evans and Ellis. Ho built up aclu that created a sensation in. 1917 and did it with practically cast-of play- ers. He made over 200,000 for a club that previously had been a fin ancial failure. * et eee tee Tt bd + BIG LEAGUE + + SCORES + + ae We oe ho ea ob ob ob oh hs AMBRICAN New York ; o24 Boston .. 6606 Schultz. and Willies.

A tall slip of lad of 17 suminers blew into: Hutchinson, Kansas, in the spring of 1907, He was seeking em- ployment and cared not what he Janded, as long as it fed his hungry jstomiach.

Why. not go in abd) ask for a job on the ball team: Hadn't he been the best, outfielder, at high school? Hadn't he been considered the best semi-pro. player m his county Through the gato right mt onto the field this youngster walked; went up to the manager and asked for a posi- tion. Why, you're only a kid; get out there and chase flies. ordered the manager. Thix was just the chance that the boy wanted. To the right, to the left, far in front and far-over his head did Mis lad of 17 summers chase the ball and not-une did he miss. He had made good ina halt -hour and that noon, when practice was over, the manager signed him as an outfielder.

But Smoky Joe dld not remain long as an ow The Hutchin- son team at hae for pitchers, iibritetes and finally Manager Andrews taceda crucial game with no slabster to work. He happened to see Wood warm up out in the field, and noticed that he possessed terrific apeed. A bappy inspiration sefzed the diahear- tened manager: Why not let Wood oon the slab in batting practice and use some of that great speed against the home batters? If he made good against .them he could easily baffle the opposition, So Joe*trotted out to the box. Ning men faced him. Bight of them fan- ned, while the other popped weakly In front of the plate.

But it is my opin- fon that he Is also tht best pitcher in th country. There was a time when Mathewson, occupied the pedes- tal by his lonesome. Even now some critics claim Walsh is the leading Pitcher of all time. But Matty's fame fs fading, and even Big Ed will be forced: to acknowledge, from his-sea- 80n's showing, at least, that Wood is his master. Walter Johnson alone can be rated anywh re near Smoky Joe.

TURPIN BROS, MAIN STREET Dall that saved, Walsh's refutation, Just when Walsh seemed on the verge a few years ago of sinking into the obscurity of the minors, he tried his luck with the spitball, mastered its control, and leaped with suddenn into the very front rank. His size and strength, ability to work every other day, if necessary, has earned him Teputation in this line that brooks of no rivalry. But it is to his strength and size that this reputation is most- ly due, Ed Walsh has but the faintest of curves in his repertoire. He never Fesorts to a drop or to hooks. It is first the spitter and then a fast one. His matyellous control makes to- wards His effectivenesd, and it is gen- erally conceded that whem. Walsh is right he is absolutely invincible. But there are lots of days when Walsh is not right, and his exper- fences against the Red Sox team this Season will show that h was often caught napping. Joe Wood, on the. contrary, everything. He has never resorted to the spitter in his whole career. With tremendous confidence: in his speed, iis ability to guage the bats man s weaknesses, his absolute on- trol and his change of pace, he has shown skill that even those Who con- ceded his greatness never really ap- preciated before. Unlike most of the leading twirlers Wood does not rely upon his back muscles, Hig terrific speed depend: almost entirely gabon the strength hie sood right arm.
