call it sighting the ball,' nnd Long, the
Boston short stop. 10 the only man / know
who seems to like it. He is almost a. sure
of that difficult play as a man can be OF
anything. But, for my part, l avoid IT., ex-
cept in practice, when, of course, it must be
studied.
Beginners often eight the bail' this way
in a game when care would enable them to
avoid doing SO. They do not realize the
value of making a choice. or are not quick
and alert enough to take advantage of an
opportunity. There ia always a right way
20 field a ball and there are, several other
ways that are wrong. inexperienced play
ers do not carry their head work far
enough to a advantage of every posi-
bility when they see a batted ball coming
at them, / would recommend that a man
should never be satisfied with himself
because he has tielded the ball. if he has
done it in such a way as to give an
unnecessary chance of losing 1t. Garry
this principle as far as it will 60. Whatever
is worth doing is worth doing we'll, and if
you are going to play the game play every
point there is in it. There ia nothing too
small to be attended to. For instance. l
have seen Long. when absolutely unable to
handle a fnmbled ball in time. kick it into
a baseman's hands aud thus make tho play.
This is not accident; he has done it in prac-
tice until he is reasonably sure of putting
the ball pretty near where he wants it to
20. He might not have a chance to do
that in 100 games, and. again, he might
save a game by it.
In practice a man should always have a
definite idea of Improvement. He should
nov exactly where his weak spots are and
should remedy his defects by no haphaZard
work. Some young players. finding that
certain plays come easy to them, devote all
their attention to perfeeting themselves in
those points. But that is not the way to be
aplayer. Practice for your weak points, but
don't do any practicing III q game. There
the player is all for his team. II he can
guard his weakness he must do it. A third
baseman who is weak on his right side, who
isn't SO sure of a bali whom he runs to the
right ss when he runs to the left, should
play nearer to the bag on that account.
And so with every uoint of play. 1t is
study Of himself witch makes the best Of a
man.
One of the hardest things | had 10 learn

enough to say how it should be done, if the

As to training, l recommend the milder

all he must avoid excuses. Aside from all
questions Of morality. a ball player can
not afford to drink with the remotest ap-
ptoach to intoxication nor to smoke to
excess. The less OF both the better for
most men. l never smoke Immediately be-
fore a game and limit myself to a moderate
amount Of tobacco. These points are Just

want to play it as best We can and to keep
