than the right handler.
what batter makes the most
trouble for me?"

hitters in the American league,
and most of them have made
plenty of trouble for me.
Jack Fourier, formerly OF the
White Sox and now with the st.
Louis Cardinals, always increased
his batting average at my expense.
Duffy Lewis, Iris Speaker, Der
r'll Pratt, Eddie Collins and Frank
Baker are q few others who always
liked my stuff.
