First Sackers Must Hit

MERE are only few men in
L baseball, II any. who know more
fielding tricks around first base than
Fritz Mollwitz and Walter Golvin.
And yet these two wonderful field.
ers are in the minors because they
can't hit big league flinging.
Your first.sacker in any company
must hit that onion. Golvin isn't
even regular in this league because
Art Griggs can push the leather.
First base fielding is largely con.
fined to catching a thrown bali and
being able to shift the feet for throws.
Hitting ability has carried many u

first base. Take Jack Fournicr. He's
really poor fielder, but good enough
that his clouting carries him thru

witz, Leslie and Johnston. They are
all 800 hitters except Golvin. and
he's not n regular. Leslie, Johnston
and Golvin are fine fielders, but tho
rest get by simply on their hitting.
Yes, folks. your first.sacker must

Jake's case most Of it has
been skill. When he's right
he's by far the best pitcher
