_In July_ the new rule of management, inaugurated by Mr. Day, placed New
York in the front, and the result was that the "Giants" in July made the
best month's record of the season, over 18 victories to but five defeats;
Detroit stood second on the list in July victories, with Pittsburgh third,
the latter making a good rally in July; Indianapolis, too, played well
this month and stood fourth, Washington being fifth, and Chicago sixth,
the latter taking a bad tumble, Philadelphia and Boston being the two last
in July victories, Boston winning but five victories out of twenty-two
games, that club's worst monthly record.
_In August_ Boston rallied in brilliant style, scoring 16 victories out
of 22 games, quite a contrast to their poor work in July; New York was
second, and Pittsburgh third, the latter doing better, even, than in July;
Philadelphia stood fourth, Chicago fifth, Washington sixth, with
Indianapolis seventh and Detroit last, the latter only winning five
victories out of 21 games in August.
_In September_ Chicago rallied well and went to the front in the record
of the month's victories, Pittsburgh being second, New York third, Detroit
fourth--the latter rallying; Philadelphia sixth, with Indianapolis and
Washington bringing up the rear.
