Aside from the hitting ability of
the Americans. the Japs marveled at
our long-distance throwing, and the
accuracy with which the outfielders
could get the ball TO the plate.
Kelly has a great arm. His throw
ng ability. added to his size, also
elped to make him big hero in the
yes of the Jap fans.
Even more interesting to some Of
he fans than the game itself was
-elly's exhibition of long-distance
hrowing. This was an added feature
,afore each game.
Throws Long Ones
Standing in the outfeld, at the re
hottest point in the park. or at the
ZONE plate, Kelly would make several
hrows after getting his arm properly
warmed up. On every occasion his
NAL throw would pass out of the con
fines of the park.
None Of the Jap players could come
close to equaIing such a feat as Kelly
would daily put over. Naturally his
1bility helped make him d big favor

The throwing arm Of the Jap is a
peculiar affair. From short distances
he can get good speed on the ball. The
