T BOILS IN PREPARATION FOR TOMORROW Battery Strength May Give Athletics Margin "Lefty" Grove Will Be Able to Participate In! "Three Games if Series Goes Limit New York, Sept, 30.--For two very good reasons a sensible comparison of pitching and catching strength of the Philadel- phia Athletics and the St. Louis Cardinals'is one of the toughest tasks ever wished on anybody. The first reason is Robert Moses "Grove; the second Is "Mickey" % Cochrane. As long as those two are hale and hearty and playing for the Athletics there is little to be 'gained in trying to compare the . Mackmen's battery strength with any club they mizht encounter fn the World's Series. The Car- dinals undoubtedly have the finest pitching corps in the Na- tional League and perhaps the second best in either league, hut they do not have a hurler in the same class with "Lefty" Grove. They have a capable catcher in "Jimmie" Wilson, but he i= not & 'Mickey' Cochrane. In other words, it. is a top- heavy arrangement. Grove, who won 31 games this season and lost only four, {s the greatest southpaw of nfodern ('mes DPer- haps he is the greatest of all time. Cochrane is the greatest catcher in the game today, Take those two away from the Ath- letics and they still would be a tolerably good ball club. With them they are favorites to win their third straight world cham- pionship, something never hefore accomplished. g Schedule Favors Grove Thanks fo the schedule, Grove Playing Today "Their Mad | 'Moment" With Dorothy MacKail and Warner Baxter Thursday and Friday | likely [1920 classic | will | heen on [yn be able to start three games in the forthcoming World Ser- jes, providing it goes the limit. He might in addition be able to get in a little relief work. It takes only four victories to win the title. 'So you get an idea. To make the case of Grove versus Cardinals even more com- plete, the records show that the National League champions have heen particularly weak against left-handers this year. Manager Gabby Street has heen drilling them for several dave against smart left-handed pitching, bor- rowing Bill Walker of the Giants for the purpose. It is not to be inferred Grove will not have plenty of help. There is big George Earnshaw, the right-hander, who beat the Cards twice last year and was the individual pitching hero of the series, allowing only 13 hits in 25 innings. There also is George Walberg, another south- paw, winner of twenty games this vear: Leroy Mahaffey, crfick young right-hander, who deliver- ed fifteen victories toward the Athletics' victorious march, and Waite Hoyt, the veteran of six World Series while with the Yankees, who has pitched super- lative ball since Mack obtained him from Detroit in midseason. Derringer Is Cardinals' Hope Azaingt this great a of mound talent, "Gabby" will pit practically the same that failed to make the grade a vear ago. The only important ad- dition - to the Cardinals staff is Paul Derringer, the rookie from Rochester, who comes near being the outfit Winner of eighteen out t wor ty-six Derringer looks like the logical nominee to face the A's in the opening tilt, des- pite his lack of World ox- perience.
