that the catcher does the hardest
work. He has to watch the bases,
as well as chase foul tips, etc. The
pitcher is very important person in
a ball game and gets more credit
than a catcher, but when it comes
right down to hard work the catcher
is in there every day, while pitcher
on a league club works about every
fourth day.
