What the Cincinnatis want is better base coaching. They sadly lack in this respect. When Purcell made his three-base hit Saturday there was nobody within sixty feet of that base, and when he got there he had to stop and find out for himself where the ball was. Nor was any body sent down to his vicinity afterward to coach him in. this deficiency was been marked in the Cincinnati team, and has caused much grumbling among the spectators, who have noticed that the Chicagos and Clevelands are never without two men standing along the line ready to coach their men while on bases.
