Patrick Livingstone, Toledo catch
err and formerly with the Athletics
and Cleveland, says his greatest
trouble with a minor league pitcher
lies in his constant tendency to cross
the receiver and throw some other
ball than the one called for, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"All the young pitchers seem to do
it some time or other" says Living

dread to work out with new man for
this reason"
And this, of course, is not without
reason Half the broken fingers in
the league and many other minor in
juries received by catchers in the
course of a season can be said to be
due to the dreaded CROSSED" ball,
when the pitcher, made nervous by
the yells of the crowd or the jeers
of the opponents, throws some other
ball than the one the catcher signals
for.
When he sees the receiver going
far back of the plate for the ball he
has missed, or, worse yet. sees a
broken finger dangling at the end Of
the backstop's hand only then does
he realize what he has done.

Some of the boys who reported direct

after the big game with Brooklyn

What value, Mr.. Average Fan
would YOU place upon a half second

going to first?
Perhaps not much, but let me tell
you there isn't a baseball strategist

lie that the winning of the next

ultimate analysis, depend upon the
ability of a runner to reach first q

sstent cry in training camps this
spring. Never before has necessity
forced managers to search for tricks
to cut fraction between. bases.
The number of times half second
has been the difference between a
base hit and an out has won and lost
pennants too often to mention.
This year will be one of run-mak-
ing, not rum preventing. Speed will
decide the issue.
The day of hitless wonders is past
Fielder Jones's White Sox won be-

John McGraw won theN1912 pennant
with the poorest fielding team in the
National. He won two pennants with
poor defensive teams, showing what
can be done with hitters and base
runners. He ran his opponents off
their feet.
The game has reached the point
where managers play for runs. Men
who can hit and run bases are pre-
