ABANDON HlT.AND.RUN PLAY
Teams Of Few Years Ago Were More
Adept at Scientific Play Than
They Are Today.

While the hit.and.run play Is often
used in baseball, it is really a lost art.
Nowadays when the hit-and.run Is sue.
cessful the batter usually comes
through with a clean.cut safe drive
for one or more bases, which, when
the play Is pulled of as It should be,
is next to impossible.
IIit.and.run requires scientific bat
ter. His object is to shove the ball
toward the place from which the in
fielder has moved in order to cover
the bag toward which the runner has
started. It might be the second base
man or the shortstop. The batter IL
supposed to SO place the ball that II
an infielder can reach II at all he has
to cover enough ground to make q
double play impossible, and nine
times out Of ten, II he manages to
throw the batter out at first, the play
has succeeded in moving up the base
runner.
There il chance for the ball rolling
safe. but the double play Is absolutely
eliminated.
But II Is but seldom that one sees
the hit-and.run play worked in this
way. Nowadays the batter gives the
runner the sign to start, and then he
takes a wallop at the ball. Sometimes
a three.base hit results. on which the
runner could have scored, even II he
had not started in advance, but more
often high fly goes up. and wher
the play is successful II is because the
batter gets the ball into safe terri
tory.
Conceding that baseball has ad
vanced in many respects, there Is NJ
doubt that the teams Of few year
back were more adept at the Inland
run game than they are today.

Cofey Gives Advice.

Jack Coffey, who used to play short
stop for the Braves and is now man.
aging the Denver Grizzlies In the
Western league. announces his ideal
formula for a pennant winning ball
club. Coffey wants seven parts pitch
ing, seven parts hitting. four parts
base running, one part sacrifice hit
ting and one part fielding. While
pitching and sticking have ever been
essential to the winning Of pennants,
Coffey apparently holds the fielding
end almost too cheaply. Far more
games have been lost on a wild throw
than have been won by sacrifice hit
