 ], Connie Mack was just as shrewd a ball player as he is a manager, and his 1 friends delight in relating some of the
 incidents of the bygone days to prove | their case One yarn has to do with how l Connie outwitted the nimble-brained l Adrian Anson in combat that was
 played 30 years or so ago. and so saved a ball game.
 l The Chicago team was three runs be- hind when Cap" went to bat in thd
 last half of the ninth. One man was
 out. The mighty swatsmth grabbed one
 of Pitcher Whitney's offerings and sent
 it sailing over the fence for a clean l home run. Cap ambled around to
 third and there he stopped. His team
 mates yelled to him to score. But Gap wouldn't budge from third. The umpires were nystfied by his actions, but Il l wasn't within their province to order { 1 man to score on circuit smash if h9
 decided he wanted only three bases. Seems foolish, doesn't it, that AnsoA
 would take only three bases? But i wasn't. Anson was playing for bigge stakes than one run. He wanted hi
 team to rally and figured that the on,,
 way to accomplish the rally vsea,.sse}- sr. on third
 And this is why:

 as the catcher played far back he ha been able to burn them over with light ming speed, baffling most of the Chicas batters. But as soon as the Chicagoan got a man on base the catcher woul
 move up and Whitney was forced to cu down on his speed.
 Knowing all that. Anson eelcted t remain on third, which action he figure would force the rival catcher to move u.
 back of the plate, force Whitney to de
 crease his speed. and so create the pos sibility of ninth inning Chicago bat ting rally. But the opposing catchei that day was the shrewd Connie Macs and Anson's strategic move was foiled
 As soousas Anson refused to score on his homer. Connie sensed tke motive And. from his position far back iron home plate. he signaled to Whitney tc pitch. The twirier was little surprised by the action of Mack in failing to move up behind tEe bat. but he had confidence in Comics judgment-and pitch hs did
