You see the man on base dancing
off.
You know the club needs a run
to win.
You watch the pitcher winding
up, glimpse the ball flashing to-
ward you, draw back your bat

You feel the sharp, collision, hear
the yell There it goes! hit!

OF your legs and lungs, getting as
you turn first the prettiest snap
Shot view a base player can want
TO see-your teammate scurrvins
across the plate; the enemys out
heIder just overtaking the little
white speck away out on the green

good for second base. maybe third.

to a ball players heart as a hit;

have been fortunate enough
this year to be hitting considerably
better than the average batsman.
| have had the satisfactory expert
ence of driving in runs a good
many times. Ny work has stood
somewhat above the magical 800
which all players crave.
So l think perhaps | may be
qualified to write a little bit about
batting for the benefit of the fans
who love hit--telling some imper-
sonal things first.
What does man need to be a
good hitter?" is a question | have
often been asked
Must Have Natural Swing.
First, he should have what is
called a free, natural swing. That
does not mean twist of his whole
upper body nor a heave of his
shoulders. 1t means enough strength
and pliability in his arms alone to
be able to maneuver bat high or
low, level or on an angle, and to
swing it hard enough to drive the
ball, having met it, powerfully and
swiftly.
Second, he needs a good. unfal-
tering eye to follow the ball from
the instant it leaves the pitchers
hand until it is close upon him.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-08-13
Natural Suing Main Requisite to Good Batting
Unfaltering Eye and Confidence Also Needed

and an eye that telegra phs its mes
sage instantly to his arm muscles.
Third, he needs confidence He
needs to know this one thing: That
in pinCh"-where a hit means a
run-the opposing pitcher and out
fielders are more worried than he
is. Some players never learn that
lesson. They feel that they're I'm
the hole not the other club. But
the good batter learns II and never
forgets it-makes his opponents
know it. too.
Here's a recent illustration: On
our last visit to Cincinnati the
game was almost over. We were
two runs back; needed three to win.
McGraw sent in Harry Mccormick
10 Dat for the pitcher, with three
men on bases and two out.
Now, there's a fellow who had
been sitting on the bench all sea-
son doing nothing. The fans-even
some of the players began to ask:
What is HE for? Do they really
pay that man regular money!"
Shows Nerve in Pinch.
But up he went to the plate, say
ing as he started: 81 guess that
bunch out there are worried some"
He had all his nerve with him, and
on the third ball pitched cracked
out a long two Dagger that gave
us three runs and the game.
Harry's whole season on the
bench had been paid for by that
one job. He had the confidence
McGraw knew it-that's what Gin

mick had been given regular money
for. When the goods were needed,
he delivered them.
For my part | made batting a
study, / haven't succeeded just be-
cause I'm a big, husky fellow that
can swing heavy war club. What
success l have won has come
through hard, constant work.
When l first Joined the Giants l
watched the other fellows at bat
ting practice. One, in particular,
impressed me. That was AL Bird
well. He was constantly getting
the pitchers to serve him balls in
certain place where it was hard for
him to lay bat on them. l asked
him why.
I'm trying to overcome a weak
ness, Chief he said. After while
I'll be able to hit those balls"
That struck me as mighty good
idea. l began to ask the pitchers
in practice to throw them to my
weak point. Om not going to tell,

A plan for improving the eye,
which I've recently worked on, is
this: | try to tick" the ball-to

have been often asked which
would rather bat against, right
handler or a left handler Give me
the southpaw any time. | think
most right hand hitters will agree
with me Because of his delivery,
the right-hand hitter can see the
ball quicker and therefore follow it
longer
1t was a left handler, though, that
gave me most trouble this year
RUDE Benton. of Cincinnati. When
I first faced him this season, he
struck me out twice in succession
simply fooled me and stood me on
my head with a curve bail, that
looked awful bad as it came up,
but broke in and over the plate.
Since then, I've learned to move up
step and wade into that ball.
Another tough fellow I've faced
is young Jimmy Lavender. of the
Cubs. The boy who broke Rube
Marquard's long winning streak.
There's a wonderful fellow for a
newcomer. He mikes them up
a great spitball. a good curve and
fine fast one-as well as the most
experienced stars in the league
And he "outguesses" the most of
the hard hitters almost as well Is

N
that quick breaking splitter of his,
he'd be one of the best the game
ever saw. But he hasn't learned
yet to get them over.
Other pitchers l have learned to
have great respect for are Earl
Moore, of Philadelphia, who has
remarkable speed and curves;
Alexander, of the same club. with
similar goods; and Nap Rucker, Of
Brooklyn, with great control and
curves with amazing sharp breaks.
II Rucker were only working with
hard-hitting, winning club behind
him, more people would wake up
to what a good pitcher he really is.
