Jennings Talks
oh Pitching Art

Manager Hugh Jennings. of tho
of pitching: For Ave years I have
been trying to coach our pitchers to
pitch TO the batters and make them
hit, but they never seem willing TO
do that. If the pitcher would re-
member that there are four infieid-
ers three outfielders, a catcher and a
pitcher on the mound, all paid to field
hatted balls, and be willing TO play
nine men against one batsman. we
would win more games.
THE trouble Is that the pitchers
are trying to keep the batter from
hitting the ball instead of making
him hit. AS long as q pitcher makes
the batter hit Fem where they are
YOU can count on winning ball games.
The pitcher who keep working himself
into hole is the fellow who is under
a handicap. If he would try 10 pitch
to make the batter hit instead of try
ing to keep him from touching the
bah he would not be in the hole.
You very seldom hear of Christy
Mathewson being in hole. Christy
tries to make the batter hit the ball
