well TO take them with a grain of salt.

good enough to admit that they walked

| pitched balls much better than the
larger pocket of the big glove.
Position Means Much.
In touching a runner the smaller,
more compact glove enables the
catcher TO get a flrmer grip on the
ball, thereby greatly eliminating the
chance of dropping the ball after
having touched out the runner.
Position back OF the plate means
considerable. When ready to re-
ceive the pitch in favor having the
right foot Just little back OF the
left foot, say a matter Of about four
inches.
have found that such a position
enables a catcher to get the ball
away much more quickly on a throw
than when standing with both feet
even up. Getting the ball away
quickly means everything to the
catcher.
A catcher should always back mp
first base with a man on first or no
one on the bases.
Many a time such an act on the
part OF the catcher looks unneces-
sary. when the play Is properly
completed. 1t is when the throw Is
wild, or the first baseman let's it get
through him. that the value Is back
ing up the play is apparent.
find that I get good results by
coaching my pitchers at all times.
The catcher should always tell the
| pitcher at what base to make a
play when a ground ball It hit to
him.
Particular care must be taken TO
do this on a sacrifice play. where one
or more chances are offered to re-
tire a player. The catcher has the
play in front of him, the pitcher has
his back to It. The coaching Of the
catcher is most important.
When I find my pitcher showing
signs of wildness. l make It a point
to give him n mark to pitch TO. This
can be done by holding the glove
at spot that would come under the
strike limitations.
Watch for Tips.
If the pitcher is Just outside with
to the inside and vice versa. II he is
keeping the ball too high I work |
more from a squat position.
Watch the batsman and base run
ner in trying to outguess them. The |
runner on first invariably tips Off !
the catcher when he intends to go |
down. Knowing this. the catcher |
can call for a pitchout. thereby in
,reaslng his chances to spoil the /
