Then the pitchers movements prior
to delivering the ball are important.
Why, the other day I watched a fellow
delivering the ball. and probably he had
been told to do it.
This pitcher would walk over to his
right, then amble to his left, then come
forward, make a few preliminary move
ments and then deliver the ball. That
game dragged along for more than two
hours. The pitcher was at fault Stop

O'Neill has, or is trying to make an
other improvement. He has instructed
the umpire to hurry the pitchers and
make an effort to persuade them from
losing so much time between deliveries.
In letter to Umpire Ollie Anderson,
who is officiating at Topeka at present,
O'Neill recommends that some of the
logic of Silk OLoughlin be adopted. The
following is some of O'Loughlin's opin-
ion concerning the pitchers and others
who take part in the game:
Nearly all the delays in games may
be set down against the pitcher, ac-
cording to O'Loughlin.
Speed up the pitchers and the game
will down against the pitchers, accord
ing to this veteran arbitrator. Poor
pitching and not the umpires are to
blame for delays in the game that cause
no end of trouble, he asserts.
Il have been asked why it is that
the games are long drawn out affairs
despite the many rules to shorten the
contest said O'Loughlin.
THAT is easy; watch the pitchers in
games and you will see the root of the
evil. If the pitching is poor the game
will drag.
Where there is poor pitching the batter
will wait out more. Almost all his trips
to the plate will show a three and two
count, or something like that. When
the batter is hitting good pitching and
