BILLY EVANS SAYS

What will Waite Hoyt do during
the season of 1922?
American or National league will be
watched with greater interest than
that of the New York star.
Hoyt's remarkable pitching in
the 1921 series is the cause of
all the glamour that now cen
tiers around him.
Hoyt. prior to the world series,
was known as a very good pitcher.
TO those intimately acquainted with
his work. he was regarded as a
great pitcher.
No person on the ball field is in a
better position to judge of the
worth OF pitcher than the umpire.
worked a number of games back
OF Hoyt last season. and was one
OF the individuals who knew that
waite Hoyt was a great, not just a
very good. pitcher.
In doping out the world series
PICKED Hoyt to be the star of the
Yankee staff. I said l felt sure he
would win two games and that he
might go over for three. 1 also laid
emphasis on the fact that Hoyt
must come through or the Yankees
wouldn't have much of a chance.
What Hoyt did in the series with
tue Giants is now a matter of his
tory. Suffice to say that he made
me look like a wise guy. For
which please accept my thanks
Waite.
Getting back to his pitching in
the series. He won two games and
lost one. His defeat was just
about the toughest break ever
handed out in a big series.
His first shutout victory was a
pitching classic that will go down
IN the records with the perform
ances of those great stars of the
past, Christy Mathewson, Chic
BENDER, Mordecai Brown, Abe
Adams and others.
His second victory came after q
much greater effort. To me, how
ever. it was a more brilliant per
Iormance than his shutout victory
he was in the hole at least hal
dozen times, where a base hi
would have meant the ball game
zach time he frightened up, am
either made the dangerous Clan
batter Whit, or pop up.
Waite Hoyt is one of the game
greatest pitchers. His perform
ance in the world series was no
merely fash. II was a typica
Hoyt performance.
