Jack Huston, the official scout of the
st. Louis National league club. IS
looking for good players on the coast.
While talking on baseball, Huston
gave some information which will
make the players sit up ana take
notice. He said: "The clubs are
gradually getting rid of their left
handed strickers. There was time
when they wanted only left-handed
batters. A player who could beat out
all kinds of short hits was the one
who commanded the largest salary.
but things have changed. Major
league clubs are now scouting for
young players who take the long
swings. The clubs have found that
these fast left-handed stickers don't
score the men on bases. What is de-
sired is a hitter that will score a run
ner from second by long single or
a man from third on a long fly.
These so-ealled fast left-handed bat
ters don't do 1t. and this is why the
clubs are replacing them with the
heavy swingers. SO many games are
won nowadays by one run that any
batter who can put man over the
plate is valuable"
