PASSING BIG HITTERS
NOT FAIR TO THE FANS

One of the reforms sure to
come with the evolution of the
national game is the adoption
of a rule prohibiting the DELHI
crate passing of a star batter
to get at man supposed to be
weak at the hitting game. Pur-
posely allowing $50 batter to
walk to first is baseball strate-
gy all right, but 1t smacks of a
cowardice that has no place in
the most popular sport in ali
the world
So many concessions have
been made to the pitchers end
of the game that the fans would
rise up en- masse in joyful ap-
citation Of a little consideration
of the batter's side of the ques-
ton.
Men like Lajoie, Wagner,
Cobb, Crawford and other slug
gers are paid princely salaries
for their batting ability. The
fans who pay their good money
at the gate to see batting"
have a right to demand that
their favorites be given a
chance to hit the ball.
1t has been suggested that
when the umpire is satisfied
that a batter has been deliber-
ately walked" he shall allow
all men on the bases to ad-
vance. Such a rule ought to
break up the practice right
speedily.
The average fan would surely
appreciate a rule that would
give every player with repu-
tation for killing the ball a fair
and square chance to hit it out.
