Pitching to Babe
Costly
BY DEAN SNYDER

While It is good sportsmanship to
pitch to Babe Ruth. with men on
the bases It is poor strategy.
No less a strategist than Ty Cobb
made such a biunder when Bambino
got his 18th homer. scored two mon
ahead OF him. tied the score and
made II possible for the Yanks to
win out in the ninth.
Babe takes full advantage OF
these tactical errors.
He so seldom is given a chance to
hit when runners are on the paths
that he tries a little harder on such
occasions.
