ure of a retiring man, veteran of many
years of baseball strife, whose insight
and knowledge laid the cornerstone
for the edifce of victory which Bos-
ton bats and pitching subsequently
built. And he is the last man any
man would suspect of having played
a role in the world series-"Pat''
Moran, the coach of the Philadelphia
National League club.
A month before the close of the
regular championship season, when
George Stallngs realized that the
Braves stood a good chance of edging
into the world series, the Miracle Man"
began building the Notifications for
his team. He engaged Moran to fol-
low the Athletics through the West on
their last trip of the season, study
ing their weaknesses and strong
points.
Making Sure
Moran persuaded opposing pitchers
to try different kinds of pitching
against the American League cham
pions. In this way it was discovered
that Frank Baker and Eddie" Collins
were uncertain hitters against slow
curves. Moran reported to Stallings
Without telling Rudolph of Morans
report, Stallings sent Rudolph to Phil
adelphia. to watch the Athletics in ac-
ton. Upon Dicks" return the man
ager asked him what he had learned.
Baker can't hit a slow ball." said
Rudolph. Il am sure of it that If he
comes to bat with the bases full will
feed him nothing but a slow curve
Stallings was convinced and he in
structed his pitchers not to give Ba
ker and Collins anything but slow
balls The answer is found in the bat
ting averages of these two, upon whom
the Athletics relied for so long. COL
Inns hit 200 and Baker $50.
While the laurel is being distributed
the Braves Pat" Moran should
not be forgotten. He was the first to
penetrate the armor of their hitting
and find the vulnerable srot.
He was the first to dissipate the mys-
terry that has guarded their bats
through these many years
