of this kind. that it is surprising
the fans have not long ago recog-
nized 1t and given the infielder
credit.
Fred Buelow, when in the ma
jors, pulled a play on Charley
Hemphill that shows what a base
man can do.
Hemp" was on third, with one
out. when the batter hit long fly
to Harry Bay. Bay hasn't the best
arm in the business, and Hemphill,
after making sure the ball had
been caught, started for the plate.
The center fielder whipped the
ball in as fast as he could. Bue-
low stood at the plate, with both
hands resting on his hipe, Dking
out toward the outfield with On ex-
preston On, his face sayings as
plainly as words. "No chance to

Hemphill must have taken 1t for
granted, when he saw Buelow that
Bay had not made the throw, and
slowed up. In the meantime Bays
throw had been hurrying to the
plate. Suddenly Buelow reached
out, grabbed the ball and put it on
the astOnished Hemphill.

There Is nothing prettier. from
the fans point Of view. than to see
an outfielder skim along the green,
grab fast bounding sphere, and,
not stopping to straighten UP, hurl
the ball to some baseman the least
bit ahead of a madly dashing base
runner.
Nothing looks so spectacular,
and the regard the public has for
plays of this kind is always shown
by thunderous applause.
The man making the throw is
the recipient of this applause, and
no credit is given the baseman who
touches out the runner.
His task, while not so spectacu-
lar, Is fully as important. About
half the time the runner and ball
reach him at the. same time. He
not only has to catch the ball, but
put 1t on the runner.

players and public than Ed Walsh.

pitching wonder. Seldom in its
years of life has base ball pro-
duced a man of Walsh's caliber.
He stands head and shoulders
above the ordinary beavers, not
only through his ability to pitch
extraordinary games. but because
he can come back day after day,
without apparently losing his effec-
tiveness.
Last summer the White Sox were
kept in race all season because
Walsh pitched nearly half of the
games played, winning great per-
centage of the contests. Time and
again he was called upon to finish
games started by others, when the
opposition was finding the delivery
easy. And Walsh made good upon
about 80 per cent Of the occasions!

but for an error by Isbell, would
not have permitted a man to score.
This year, in recognition of past
services, Walsh demanded more
money from Comiskey. Some say
he asked $4,000. Others place the
figure at $500. Whatever 1t was,
it is probable that the getaway
gong will see the Comiskey star in
