As Simmons came into the stretch

Quality and Quantity

Quality and quantity in pitching generally 20 to-
gether The two best workmen IN baseball Johnson
and Alexander, and it is worthy Of passing note that
these two have also pitched upon the average greater
number of games than any other contenders.
Year after year johnson and Alexander range be-
tween fortyve and fifty games season, where most
pitchers flnd thlrty-hve games entirely sufficient.
Mathewson and Walsh were two others from recent
campaigns who had trouble pitching fifty games
year, Walsh one season running up sixtyive contests
There would be great deal better pitching on the
average If pitchers worked every four days
One of the main reasons why Staings drew such
effective pitching in 1914 that he worked Rudolph
James and Tyler in turn--because he had no one 60
fill in.
The result was that Rudolph James and Tyler did
better work than they ever did before-or ever will
do again.

The Scientific Slugger

John j. Mc(iraw says that he is no believer in the
theory that all the old stars the BEST but he
still contends that Big Ed Deehanty was the most
scientific of all the suggers.
Smuggling and science are hardly synonymous terms
"Delehanty different" says McGraw. "fIe could
hit baseball as hard any | have ever seen
but even when taking terrific smash at ball he could
drive it into right left, the case demanded. |
have never hard hitter who could place his
drives as Del could. Babe Ruth Is IA mighty waoper
But Ruth has no idea whether he is going to drive
ball to right centre left. lie merely takes the old
waop and let's nature do the rest Most Of the present
dey suggcrs belong to that type. In fact don't know
of one who can combine both systems~who tear
into ball and place it ut the same time"

The triumph in the relay terminated
