cago. 1t was on the 4th of July. The
clubs had been playing a five-game
series, of which Chicago had won
three of the four played. Stanley
Coveleskie was Speakers selection for
the afternoon game. Cleveland got
away to a good start. For seven In
nihgS Coveleskie held Chicago score
less, allowing only three hits, two of
them rank scratches.
Going into the last half of the
eighth. Cleveland enjoyed 5-to-o
lead. and a victory for the Indians
seemed assured n the last half of the
eighth inning Chicago made eight
hits in succession, all of them ringing
drives. Like every one else, Speaker
felt sure Coveleskie would find him
self and stop the assault. because he
was not weakening in the least-the
Chicago club was simply hitting them
safe. After Chicago had couple OF
runs over and the bases filled Speaker
had two or three pitchers all ready to
take Covie's place. However. Speaker
was we'll aware no pitcher Is better In
a pinch than Coveleskie. and he kept
pinning his faith in his star. But
COVE couldn't get them out. and be-
fore the inning was over Chicago had
scored six runs and won the game.

in his selection OF pitchers" said one
of the National League critics.
If Brooklyn is trimmed Robbie can
take some of the credit" remarked all
other writer.
On this point 1 shall not express an
opinion, other than to say there are a
lot of critics who expressed similar
opinion. Brooklyn was supposed to
have an invincible pitching stan,
which, after rather good start.
proved to be far from invincible. Anx-
ious to know why the critics had not
agreed with Manager Robinson in his
pitching selections. 1 broke into the
conversation thusly:
Looks to me as if Robbie did well
enough. Perhaps his pitchers were
facing a little sitter opposition. Per
haps the Cleveland pitchers were bet
ter than given credit for.
Starting Marquard was like picking
soft spot for Cleveland" replied one
of the critics. "Left-handers without
great speed didn't bother Cleveland
to any extent during the season.
After Grimes had been beaten in his
second start, Smith should have been
used to start the fifth game and hold the
margin for Brooklyn. His pitching, which
was beaten ] to 0 in the sixth game,
would easily have won the fifth contest.
1t might have made a big difference
in the series.'' was the answer.
Switching Pitchers Tough Task.
AS I have said it always is easy to
analyze a game or series after, it is
over and figure how it might have been
differently played. The psychological
moment to change pitcher who Is
wavering is one of the most difficult
tasks a manager faces. Place a half
dozen leaders in charge of team. have
such a situation come up, and l doubt il
any one of the six leaders would select
the same spot for a shift Picking the
pitching selections Is another equally
difficult task In a measure a teams
success depends on the luck manager
meets with his pitching selections and
his changes in a pinch.
1t would therefore be Interesting for

original pitching selections of each
manager was able to finish his game.
1t would be equally interesting to
know how many pinch-hitters de-
livered when sent to bat for some
other players. Likewise. it would be
valuable information to learn how
many ball games were won through
the hitting of players sent to bat in q
pinch, and how many were saved by
the substitution Of some pitcher when

/ must admit the query offered food
\ for thought, although / had never be-
fore given such an idea consideration.
During the base ball season the fan is
constantly offering suggestions to the
manager. The moment pitcher be-
gins to falter. the easily discouraged
enthusiasts loudly yell that he be
taken out. If batter. who is or
dinarily a good hitter, but happens to
r<be having a bad day, comes up late
Pin the game, the fans shout for a
pinch hitter to replace him. Often
before the start of game they begin
to take exceptions to the managers
pitching selection.
Many Things to Consider.
The manager always is in a peculiar
position, because he must consider the
situation at hand, and must give
have on the morale of his team and
his individual player. Often man
ager fails to make a change, because
he believes the loss of that particular
game might be less costly than the
destroying of the confidence of a
player by his removal from the game.
Not only must he use the best possible
judgment in his selections, but he
must show to advantage in picking
the proper spot to make them.
Then there is the army of second
gueSSerS he must combat. 1t is pos
sible to take any ball game after it
is over, pick it to pieces. and find a
spot or two where a slight shift
: might have changed the complexion
of the game. Many of the fans are
prone to do a lot of second guessing,
likewise some of the critics. After
the sixth game of the 1920 world
series / was thrown into contact with
several we'll known writer's who fol-
