Whenever a catcher cannot discover
a source, he always looks for the

the catcher.
"They amt getting them there, "

This discovering of the signs has
helped the Athletics immensely, be-
cause they wait until they have the
pitcher i'll a hole and he has to lay
the ball over. Then comes the hit

not think for a minute that / am

they are a lot of smart ball players,
and it is regarded as being perfectly
fair to take signs through quickness

Only artificial aids to detection are
against the rules And the fact that
the opposing clubs always think the
Athletics are getting the signs gives
Mack's team an edge, whether it is
true or not.
