KOPF ANOTHER HERZOG?
Billy Kopf, new shortstopper of the
Cincinnati Reds, is in decidedly good
with his boss, Mr. Christopher Math
ewson. And being in good with the
boss amounts to something in the
big leagues.
In his efforts to build up a winner
at Cincy, Matty has taken advantage
of every opportunity that has been of
fered him to bolster his club, and in
Kopf he believes he has covered a
real star.
Matty isn’t in the habit of peddling
praise extravagantly unless it is de
served, but he has been lavish in
handing the laurels to Kopf, and his
sentiments are backed up by Heinie
Groh, who says the youngster will
soon by classed as another Herzog.—

LETTER GREAT FOLLOWER.
Zeb Terry, of the White Sox, has
received a letter from a friend in Cali
fornia that w-as forwarded from every
city where the second Sox team play
ed, probably setting a record.
The weather man would make a big
hit if he allowed a few more days of
sunshine.
The Potter creek bunch of rooters
are coming in strong; at least 100
fans will be on hand to root for their
team.
Paddy Welch pitching and Harvey
Cline catching will probably be the
personnel of the battery working for
the City team Sunday.
The fans are getting all keyed up
to the proper pitch for Sunday’s game
and judging from the enthusiasm
around the streets the grandstand
will be packed.
The first Sunday excusion of the
year will be run from Anchorage to
Matanuska and a big bunch of A. E.
C. rooters will follow their team and
support them against the Farmers.
O. A. Kenyon says that the Com
mission boys have organized two
teams for the amateur league and
have started practice. They have ord
eren tneir suits and baseball para
phernalia through Glen Carrington.
Madame X—The Fourth avenue
| seer and fortune teller is reaping a
I harvest these days from the baseball
players. Several local stars were seeft
coming from her place yesterday and
the dope must have been right for
they were all smiles. Among them
J were Capt. Nieholls, Old Man Ro
chon .Tiffany and Jack Henry; Nick
took the palm route and learned that
he would win the first game; Tiff
pointed to his war club and got the
promise of three bingles for Sunday’s
game; Rochon is to get the first home
run of the season and Jack intends
! to lead the league in stolen bases.
_
To Increase Hitting.
Unless the crop of .300 hitters in
creases this season, it is more than
likely that the powers that be in base
ball will get down to the serious busi
ness of devising ways and means to
increase batting. The problem was
discussed at some length during the
winter, but no move was made to help
the batters out.
Many baseball men are strongly
against the idea of placing more re
strictions on the pitchers, but they be
lieve batting should be increased, and
they want to bring this about by some
other means.
The baseball “squirrels’’ can now
get busy.
MILAN SCORED FIRST HIT.
And Tillie Walker Knocked a Triple
That Counted a Tally.
Clyde Milan of the Senators made
the first hit of the 1017 baseball season
at 3:03 on the afternoon of April 11 in
the first inning of the Wasliington
Philadelpbia game.
The Senators also led off with the
first run, when Smith singled in the
Photo by American Press Association.
CLYDE MILAN.
second Inning and raced home at 3:15
on a triple by Judge, which went siz
zling over Thrasher’s head.
The Polo grounds furnished a. close
second when Hooper, the first man up
for the Red Sox, singled to right at
3:21 and scored at 3:28. A sacrifice, an
infield hit and a three bagger, the lat
ter by Walker, sent Hooper around.
