Whenever it happens that a playing
manager makes a failure the cry goes
up for a bench manager and vice versa,
and yet the records of base ball show that
the man who handles his team from the
bench and does not fill a position on the
team has been the most successful.
There Is no doubt that when 1t became
evident that McAleer would not remain
In Washington public clamor was for
playing manager in this city 1t
was figured that the Nationals would
make a better showing with a m&r at the
head who was also a player. and yet this
system has proved a failure so often.
The most recent instance is the case Of
Hal Chase Unquestionably a star in his
position. and a ball player who always
was classed among the Intelligent, Chase
was thought the logical man to lead his
team. But he did not make success Of
it and a bench manager is sure to sue
coed him.
There are, Of course, instances where a
player has also proved a good manager.
but they are not numerous. The great
est teams the game has developed have
been handled from the bench. Connie
Mack. Ned Hanlon and Frank Selee
have won more pennants than any other
individual in base ball, and none OF them
ever donned a uniform when he stopped
playing.
Napoleon Lajoie. who tried to manage
the Clevelands while covering an fAfield
position, gave up in despair. Norman Ell
berfeId accomplished nothing at the head
of the Hillmen, for whom he played
shortshop. Go over the pages Of base
ball history and you'll find similar in
stances of players who have failed as
managers while actively engaged in the
sport. But that doesn't mean that play
ers after retiring from the game have not
earned distinction while serving on the
bench The records show that the only
manager Of National League team who
did not graduate from the professional
diamond was the late Frank G. Selee.
