According to Johnson under the exist
ing system official scorers in both major
leagues are known TO the players and any
one else who cares 20 ask. Naturally, they
are subjected to pressure, often from play
ers themselves and more often from friends
of players. Batting and fielding averages
depend much upon judgment, which is
bound TO be affected more or less by out
side influences or opinions.
The plan of Withdrawing the oficia! scor-
ing from these influences is not new one
