Jim Delehanty, one of the famous
players of that name, tells this one,
which has Tim Hurst, Jack Kleinow,
who once caught for the New York
Americans. and James Delehanty as
the central figures
Jack Chesbro was doing the pitch

ball that was mighty hard to Judge.
kleinOw, who was doing the catching.
and Hurst, who was umpiring. were
disagreeing on a lot of Tins rulings
Tim called ball two with Delehanty
up, on a pitch that KIeinow regarded
a good strike. He made a strenuous
protest. Delehanty stood in the bat
ter'S box with a broad smile on his
face. jim liked to hear them argue.
The call was two balls and two
strikes on Delehanty. Kleinow was
positive the pitch that Tim called a
ball should have been ruled a strike
retiring Delehanty. Finally in des-
peratiOn, Hurst said:
well, | will leave it to Delehanty."
Tim was positive the pitch was ball.
and he felt sure Delehanty would en-
terrain the same opinion. Possibly jim
believed it was a ball, but Jim liked
to see Hurst rave, and he sarcastically
replied:
If there was ever a strike, that was
one. For years l have been hearing
stories about how blind you are. Now
I'll believe anything they tell me-"
Those cruel words certainly crossed
Tim up, but quick as a flash he came
back at Delehanty.
swell, if that was a good one, you
had better swing at the next one no
matter where it is. Something tells
me in advance it is going to be a
strike"
KleinOw knew Tim was man of his
word. He called for a waste ball that
was a foot wide Of the plate. Dele
