Stanley Coveleskie
pitched such sterling ball yesterday
- the twirling question is more perplexing-
than ever. Coveleskie was touched
for one hit in- four innings and his
spit ball had the Darkies guessing in
the first gams for the season.
Tha Beavers unlimbered their heavy
artillery and bombarded the curves of
Wickware and Woodworth, two husky
gunners of the colored giants, for a
7 to 3 score, i

writer as if h will be the best right

them up on a curve. He whiffed tout,

In four innings. ,!
Leonard worked his Onderhand de--li
very all he ' time and the Giants
were continually hitting under. it
is true that Hill got a home run that
" tallied two, but a portion of the cen4
' terfield fence whJch had previously
collapsed and which was being used
as a seat by impecunious spectators

Coveleskie appears to have his jo

dusky tossers like the Cove deserve
a thorough trial. .
McCredie's judgment .in nuttin
'Murphy at short was justified by hi
playing yesterday. He handled seven r
chances perfectly and covered a lot
of ground- ' Besides, he can hit the
.'bail, although his double was a scratch

Stumpf, playing alongside, also corf
raled seven chances perfectly and
showed that he ; will give ground to

Coast league pennant last year. But
I want to go on- record now with the
declaration that the Beavers as they
line up today show more class than
last year's squad. I see Where the
baseball experts are predicting that
the Seals will have a walkover this
year. They voiced the same predic
tion last year, but Portland won. I
have a nicely balanced infield and my
outfield is' composed of a trio of
heavy hitters. My pitchers are in
great shape, too, and my backstops
are of big league calibre. :

games from the White Sox and my
team is going to do as well."

Fresno. Cal., iMarch 22. Tour old
f rieind Jakey Baumgartner, who used
to lierform in the Northwestern league,
but! who said that he had to quit be
cause he couldn't stand Dave Dugdale,
umpired the White "Sox-Beaver game at
Modesto, and, is usual pulled one of
hisj funny stunts. Fred Derrick was
at bat and hit 4 foul ithat bounced into
the'- diamond. jReb. Russell threw the
bai to first and Derrick was declared
outl whereat . 4 great howl went up
from the Beavers. It was so insistent
thajt Jakey took his troubles toRus
sel and after ia conference with the.
So pitcher, reversed his decision.
"J couldn't see it very well and
asked Russell for his honest opinion,"
Jahjey explained to the scribes, '.'and
be said it was ia foul.
ifhe incident
also showed a peculiar
trait in Eddie Collins' character.- Ed
die has evidently forgotten the stuff
tha,t was handed out at Columbia uni
versity about fair play, for he de
manded the ball from Russell and in
sisted; that Reb allow the original de
cis'jon of the umpire to stand, notwith
standing the appeal from the. official.
Wej are now wondering what satisfac
tion an umpire jwould get if he appealed
to Collin's in the cases of such a palp
able foul" as the one mentioned. .
lit is said to
be the plan of the
White "Sox to
et Jack Fournier fight
it out with Quiinlan, last' year with the
Osks for the left field position. . Bunny
Brjef has crowded the Tacoma French-r
main off the first bag by his clever
fielding and hard hitting. FoiA-nier is
a j300 hitter fout a .(,00 fielder and
Majnager- Rowland believes that Brief
wiill give the j necessary strength at
firjst. John Collins, right fielder for
tli4 Sox, was overheard to say, that he
wds glad that jKournier was slated for
lefjt field instead of center, for the
aforesaid Johrji had visions of being
wrecked this summer on balls coming
between center and right. It' is said
thfre is no use to yell at Fournier,
onbe he starts frfter a ball, even though
it doesn't belong to him. It begins to
look as if Demmit will be crowded out
of I the outfield position by the three
players mentioned.
After seeing; Howard Baker In four
gajmes, it looks as if the xe-Portlander
is still a Class, B ball player. He hits
a trifle bettert now but doesn't handle
himself much
better in the field or on
the bases. It!
is said to be the plan
of j the Sox management to start 6rief
on) first, Collins, of course, at second,
Buck Weaver at short and RussiBlach-

Toung Hall, the Ma'rysvflle boy who
tried out with the Bieavers, paid a nice
compliment to them: " ."They are the
best bunch pf fellowjS that I ever! came
in contact with," he said, before de
parting for his honiie. "They are al
ways trying to help a young fellow. I
thought the experience, of trying out
with the Beavers .would do me a lot
of goo'd, 'and that js why I came to
Fresno. I am only ijj years old ahd thfe
boys- think I still have -a chance of
making good 'in professional baseball.
I realize I am a little short for a first
baseman, but being a left bander! gives
me an advantage tn .some respects.
Manager McCredie has promised jto try
to get me a job with some smaller
league.
There is considerable concern among
the southpaws, of last year oyer the
advent of young Pat Callahan.! . Pat
has control enough to keep the ball
low, which Is tho hardest kind to hit,
especially from a' left handed! slab
ster. Harry Krause and Rube Evans,
are more of the high- ball style of
pitchers, while Lush keeps, them any
where. McCredie can't carry four left
handers and he -figures that Callahan
with one game a weik as his job ought
to be a winning piticher. Therefore it
behooves Messrs. Ijirause, Evans and
Lush to keep an eye; on their condition,
when the season orjens. Of the three
H appears that the Veteran Krause is
on the shakiest ground.
