PLAYING Ball

Back In the days. when Willie
Keller was in his prime, when ball
players didn't draw the huge salaries
they are contracted for in this day

Baseball affords man chance to

never would have been able to afford
otherwise. II takes him from one big
city TO another and satisfies his every
desire for travel. He stops at the best
hotels, eats the choicest foods and it
doesn't cost him penny.
And on top of all this it affords
him daily healthful exercise, keeps
him out in the sun and the open air,
and adds to his healthy condition and.

long life. Also it gives him lot of
free advertising that he may cash
when he quits the game and wants to
start in some business that needs pub

Naturally, the question arises, what
is the occasion for so many changes
or pitchers? II often happens in a
close game. when pitcher begins to
show signs of weakening and the
whole team is more or less shaky, too,

BY EDDIE COLLINS.

Last year, before the ball season
had been under way a week, John
Ccemhs, the iron man Of our pitch-
ing department. developed typhoid fe.
YER and his services were lest TO US
fer the rest Of the campaign Imme-
diately the serious nature Of his ILL
ness became known fandom seemed 10
eayI:ss What viii the Athletics do
without him 2" Critics syentured to
predl Rander sai RlaIsl can neyeE
win penilaHt alone, and Mack has
no one else.
1t is unnecessary to say, perhaps,
that even we Athletics were bit
skepticai Of the future. Connie
Mack alone seemed unperturbed, and
although naturally he expressed sin
cere sympathy for Coombs, concern
ing his clubs future, he simply
smiled and gave this vague reply to.
the anxious queries that were fired
at him by players and others: oh.
we've get pitchers enough. Well be
all right
The first inkling Of the policy he
had resolved upon to pursue with his
pitchers we learned on the morning
of our opening game at home Said
Connie" to the pitchers in our meet
ing:
Nov, don't want any OF you to
steel bad,sor to think | am not sat
isfied with your work in the box, if I
suddenly take you out and put in
another man. But what | want you
all to bear in mind is that We have

to Bender, Plank, Brown, Houck. PEN

seated in the room-@and / want each
one of you to go at top speed and
give us all you've got when you are.
In the box. II it is only for three in
nings or only one, or even to one
man. pitch your hardest. When you
feel yourself, slipping, remember that
we've got some one else just as good
who can take your place.
In other words. Connie" realized
the important part that his young
and untried pitchers must play. with
a veteran lost temporarily. and in or
der not to break their confidence in
themselves he decided to divide up
the work rather than to go right
through with one of them and take a
chance that some club would give the
youngster severe drubbing, from
which it would take him long time
to recover.
So this, in a measure, accounts for
the many. many shifts of pitchers
that Mack made in the early part Of
the season He realized that he had
wealth of material at hand from the
splendid showing of three or four of
his young pitchers in the spring Sc
ries with the Phillies, and he decided
upon slow but sure process of ripen-
ing these promising young slabmen
for future delivery.
He argued thus:
An untried pitcher viii learn more
and gain more confidence by being in
one inning nine separate games. where
the situation is apt to be different
on each occasion. than he will If he
wereto pitch nine consecutive innings

the secretary of our club, one day
atEut the first Of May, up to which
time we had not had a pitcher go

Connie 6nfy smiled He was not
worrying. as we were in first place.
