Vance has passed the crest of his career, while Grove is perhaps at his peak, but the Old Dazzler still has plenty on his "high, hard one" when he - chooses to' bear down: Grove has more "swift'" than any other American league twlrler. The ace of the A's Was unable to start a game against the Cubs in the last world's series but he had them swinging earnestly In two ap pearances as a relief man: . Grove pitched only a fraction over six Innings but struck out ten a.Td allowed only three hits. The Cubs may have prejudiced ' on" the spot, because of their Inability to con nect, but several of them exprcsser, the opinion that- Grove was faster than Vance or any other National, league moundsman.
