TOday'S Sport Angle

Il il almost a certainty that at
the February meeting OF the two
major leagues the rule governing
transforming viii be changed.
The rule as Il is now worded
prevents any player in either OF the
teams that engage In the big series
from transforming.
Because Babe Ruth dened this
rule and played some bush games
after the close OF the big series he
stands suspended until May 20.
The public and the club owners
are TO be the losers The New York
club will be the principal sufferer.
Not only will II suffer financially
but the playing strength OF the club
will also be seriously affected by
the absence OF Ruth.
II has been generally agreed that
the rule Is all wrong. That neither
club as team should barnstorm Il
/, perfectly proper. A team is alwayi
liable TO be defeated. and 10 have
world champion team knocked OF
by some small town club certainl,
wouldn't add any prestige 10 th'
event.
However Il seems unfair 10 say
that an individual cannot take par
in a ball game after .he series (.
over. II Is practically assured thai
the rule will be changed II will still
prohibit the teams from playing
but win give the individual that
right n he so desires.
American League club owners. are
hopeful that such a change will
give Judge lands loophole FOR
easing up on the Babe Ruth sentence
Under the conditions there was
nothing left for the Judge 20 do
other than innict a severe penalty
He did. Now II the magnates say
the rule was all wrong. Il will Civ,
the judge a chance 10 take similar
view Of the penalty inflicted.

When a pitcher wins twenty or
more games a season. he is regard
ed as having had a big year
AS a matter OF fact, a great many
managers when signing a pitcher 10
a bonus contract, set twenty as the
figure.
II pitcher is able TO win twenty
games, most managers are perfect
~ willing 10 pay him a bonus OF
$1,000 or more for so doing.
In the old days 1t wasn't consid-
cred quite as much OF a feat as II is
today. This was due in a measure
to the fact that pitching STATS were
much smaller, forcing the pitchers
to work oftener.
Some idea OF what a great pitcher
Christy Mathewson really was, can
be cleaned from the fact. that for
twelve consecutive years. he won 20
or more games.
will be shooting az for a long time.
Mathewson. because OF the easy
manner in which he worked. placed
no strain on his arm. and for that
reason was able to perform consist
emily year after year. a sore arm
was an unknown thing to Matty.
The pitching records reveal the
fact that the pitchers of the days
gone by hold most OF the marks.
Walter Johnson and Rube Mar
guard are few OF the record hold
ers still doing active duty.
Ed Walsh who is to take a whirl
at umpiring in the American League
next season, had his big year in
/ 1908. when he won forty games for
the Chicago White Sox. 1t will be
many a year before some big league
pitcher comes through with forty
victories.
In the same year. christy Math-
ewson won thirty-seven games for
the Giants. In 1918. Walter John
son won thirty-six games for Wash
2 ington. This was Walters big year
in point OF victories. In 1919. Joe
b Wood with thirty-four wins, greatly
aided the Boston Red sox 20 win an
J American League pennant.
One big reason why a lot OF these
. pitching records will stand for years
, is that pitching staffs today are
, much larger. A pitcher is not call
J ed upon TO work so often. Some
