SENATOR'S our EEL BALL.
stahl's TwirIcrs Find Delivery Tells
on " Pitchers Arm.

In the course of q little time the
famous spit" or EEL" ball will be
no more to pitcher than the ordina-
~ curves ana change of pace with
which he Is equipped now, according
to the twirlers Jake Stahl carries on
Lis stan of box artists. That style OF
delivery. they say. will gradually be
dropped, except as an occasional eel
ball will be mixed in with the others
TO keep the batter guessing, but SO
far as using 1t exclusively II will be
o thing OF the past.
The cause for this change is that
the eel ball tells on pitchers arm
and the box artist who has any re-
gard for his future in the game will
not take chance of utter ruin for
the sake of temporary advantage
Practically all of our pitchers de
veloped that spit ball this spring. -
said one of Stahls twirlers this
morning at the Lexington hotel,
"and Il was generally agreed that 4
good deal OF our success was due TO
the condition of the pitchers and the
kind of ball they pitched, But It
wasn't long until they began TO com
plain about their arms and the only
cause that could be found for the
soreness was this same effective spit
ball. We have been watching II close
ly and II is our general belief that in
a short time that style of delivery
wifi be relegated to the everyday
commonplace styles; along with
curves and change OF pace.
"Chesbro was put out of the game
through too great use OF this ball.
Case Patten, for us. was rendered
Ineffective from the same cause, ana
so 1t has been and is sure to be
whenever pitcher uses that ball to
the exclusion Of the old style OF
pitching"
