New York, Juna 17. Mai Eason Is
the meat unpopular umpire In the big
leagues. All around the Tener circuit
the natives tilngle out Mai as the par
ticular target of their hoota and jeers.
Everywhere tiiey call him "the worst
umpire." Hut Mai, ol' boy. Isn't losing
any sleep over It.
Tha fact that he is so thoroughly
honest and Just In his decisions, and
o fearless of consequences, has made
Eason hated by the home fans. In this
era there are some umpires known as
"home umpires;" fellows who occa
sionally decide a play of close nature,
In faor of the home gang;. But Mai is
not one of those. In fai;t, it often
times seems to spectators that Mai
Rives the visiting team the shade the
best of his decisions.
It requires Iron nerve and a nature
calloused to hoots and hisses to de
cide against the home team on a play
where a decision either way would
sjeem, to he fuir. Mai Eason Is such a
man.' No matter how hostile the crowd
Mai rules as his Judgment dictates,
and, unfortunately for his popularity,
he rules against the home team with
considerable regularity.
Haver Tavors Home Team.
I,-or an umpire to favor the Tiome
team on one of those draw plays when
a huge crowd is present, seems only
huniah. Hut Mai sizes up as inhuman
In this respect. Time and ugnln h lias
Tuled against the natives when it
seemed to the folks In the stands that
the verdict was wrong. And a howl of
protest went up. Some umpires, hav
ing made what the fans calle a "raw
decision" against th'e home team on
one pluy, nay ev;n it up by giving that
team'the shade on the next close play.
But Eason never does.
Soma National league managers call
Kasori a farce &3 an umpire; the major
portion of the fans agree. Maybe lnc.se
folks are rU;ht; maybe not. Kason's
umpiring Judgment, at times, may be
wrong. Uut no one can accuse Mai
Eason of being dishonest, or charge
him . with cowardice hy "playing
against a viutlUK team."
reason, aiov all else, is an homst
umpire.
Groli'a Puzzling Stance.
Heinle Groh's stance at the plate Is
the rcost peculiar of any man in base
ball. The other big leaguers, when
at bat, face either toward first or
third bnse, according to whether they
are left or right handed hitters. They
watch the pitcher Willi one eye the
optic nearest the twlrler.
But the Ked third baseman, In tak
ing bis position, stands squarely fac
ing the pitcher. His back the whole
of It is toward the grandstand. Heinle
stands that way until (lie pitcher has
completed his wind-up. Then, as the
arm swings. Heinle, who Is a right
handed sticker, wheels Into the same
position that the other batters assume
at'the start.
Heinle swings around at the same
moment that the pitcher Is about to
let loose the ball, and the sudden "der
vlrfh" of tne Redleg Is disconcerting to
the bulk of pitchers. Furthermore.
Heinle varies his tactics by Jumping
around a, bit before the delivery is
made. Of ten he leaps at the ball before
his whirl is completed and the inounds
man never Is sure as to just where to
shoot the ball to fool Heinle, because
he Is Just as likely to be at the break
ing point of the pellet as not.
Has Ilaker Gone Hack?
Did the year's layoff dim the bat
' tin orb of J. Franklin Baker?
The batting to date of the "Home
Run King" has been a disappointment
to the Yankee fans. And It has sur
prised the American league enthusi
asts. Baker was a consistent .;100 hit
ter when with the Athletics. He used
to bang them to all portions of the
Jot and frequently, cut of It.
But Baker, after a, fuir getaway this
season, slumped. He bumped into a
vacuum for a while. Since then he has
beett smashing them with a fair de
gree of regularity but not in the same
way as of old.
Bill Donovan, the Yankee manager,
Is one of 'those, however, who feel that
Baker Is still there that he is round
ing too slowly, but surely.
"Baker Is just, starting now," said
Donovan. "In another month, he will
be breezing along as of old. The old
boy la still there and he will demon
strate It before the season Is out."
Willie Hoppe Makes
The High Average
Willie Hoppe showed wonderful
form In his tour of this country and
Hawaii with Yamada extending over a
period of six months In which he played
over 66,000 points, or about 165
matches, avajauglng 59 points. Some of
his performances follow: Ran 400
points from the layoff at Hartford.
Conn.; ran 350 points, or over, five
times; ran between 300 and 400 points
11 times during the trip; ran 387 and
out on one occasion; ran 256 and out
when his opponent had only 7 points
to go to win; played one full game of
400 points In 46 minutes. His share of
the receipts clear of expenses is expect
ed. tq reach 152,000.
