Scheme of Working Young
Pitchers Indoors a New
One to Baseball.
MANY ARE SKEPTICAL
Claim Is Made that Atmospheric Con.
ditions in Gym Work Hardship.
Other Comment.
By WILLIAM PEET.

Manager Griffith's idea of working out
his young pitchers two weeks before the
time set to report for spring training.
is decidedly 4 novel idea and results will
be carefully watched by almost every
manager in organized baseball.
If by this method the Old Fox is able
10 develop a couple of young pitchers
able TO hold their heads above water
IN the big swim the chances are that
other major league managers Will try
the same stunt next season.
The argument against indoor practice
for pitchers has been that work in a
gymnasium produces poor results, for the
reason that the difference in the atmos-
phere (the air inside SeinS lighter does
not help twirier materially, and that
Just as soon as he goes out of doors, he
has TO start all over again.
Griff takes a different view of the sit
nation He believes that under the
watchful eye of Trainer Mike Martin,
his youthful twirlers will be able to eS-
ercise for an hour or so each day, and
rot only pull the kinks out Of their
salary whips but get rid of all soreness,
50 that when they are called upon to
pitch in the open they will be so much
farther advanced than the other players
that the last named will be forced to
hat against regular pitching from the
start.
Charley Moran. the veteran ball player,
who is coaching the Catholic University
team, told the writer last fall that his
idea of getting away to a successful
start would be for Griff 10 take his
Young pitchers down South at least TWO
weeks before the others put in an APP
pearance and have them in good shape
bright and early Moran's dope would
seem to be worth considering.
Results may show that indoor WORK
- the Washington manager has planned,
will bring about the desired results. IL
so. Grirf will Re classed with Christopher
Columbus and other great diScoverers
and will establish a precedent TO be fol-
lowed by every manager in the major
leagues, but most of Us are from Mis-
souri, and would like TO be shcwn.
