preventative nine. a team which has
been playing a good brand of ball
this year, win endeavor to score a
victory over Joe Mullen's cohorts for
old times sake. Art Romer, the
pitching ace of the Tottenviile team,

ball for the Amboy team since his
return after twirling a victorious
brand of ball for the Keasbey nine.
Mickey" has already scored a win
over Hilker's tribe and looks forward
to repeating on Sunday. while the
Tottenville warriors are confident of
making up for this defeat. 1t is like
'ly that there will be several. positions
on the Tottenville team strengthened

kIIIII[IILIl

Baseball tried out a new rule this
year-the Intentional pass.
1t has been a neat fiivver. It's
makers had good intentions, but the
wise pitchers and catchers solved
1t right OF the bat.
The crowd doesn't like see q good
batter given a base on balls. They
keep posted on the dope and whom
Babe Ruth or iris Speaker or Joe
Jackson or sonfe more of the slug
gers come up to the plate smiling
they expect to see a collision be-
tween the ball and the bat.
Magnates, realizing this, attempt
ed to check the nuisance OF the in
territorial gift to the batter by re-
curing that the catcher remain in
his box until the ball had left the
pitchers hand.
But here's the joker in the plot.
The pitcher lobs a wide n up that
the batter couldn't touch with a tel
egraph pole and his catcher IL all
set to hop out and grab 1t the min
ute the ball Is on its way.
Babe Ruth Is the most intention
ally walked man in baseball. He's
called the king of baseball pedes-
TRANS. He was handed 101 compli-
mentaries last year. But with his
home-run fame on the up and up
this season he'll finish the season
around the 125 mark.
Walking a good batter to get at a
weak batting sister is a part of base
ball strategy.
The public would like to see the
intentional pass evil given a lasting
cure.
