Few baseball leaders had any notion that the game would become lixture, much less that within 30 yeara It would develop Into a grliu duel for prestige not necessarily second to the World Series in the desire of the two leagues for victory. It might have remained a big, happy outing but for the fact that the American League Manager Joe McCarthy and the New York Yankees! In particular quickly got the Idea that it waa more fun to win the game than to lose It, and took action accordingly, Joe laded his lineups with the best he had and. If the circumstance! warrant ed, left them In there until they had whomped the Nationals. 'the Americans won the llrat three, and Lefty domes, the Yan kee ace, started all ol them. Again, Irom 'tl through '43, tho Junior league dominated the classic, and then, with a one-year break, ran oil another four straight. By the time Ihe Nationals finally caught on to what waa happening to them and began their present surge of four In a row, they were trailing by 4-13 and felt sore all over, as though they had been beaten with a belt buckle. It goes without saying that the Nationals have long alnce dropped all pretense of playing the game for the fans, aa Iho Americans did heloro them, and are out to win It by any means within the rules. They would be happier, as would also the Americans, If a regulation adopted several years ago did not require each aide lo play the first threo Innings with the lineups vou ed by tho tans.
