Where is the proper place for the

The best spot in the whole dia-
mond for a third baseman to play,
under ordinary conditions, is two
PAGES in from the foul line and
about two PAGES back of the bag.
The reason for this is that so many
balls which usually go for doubles
and triples are hit down close along
the third-base line, and if the third
baseman Is near this foul line he can
very often turn these doubles and
triples into puteuts. The diagram
makes this clearer and shows the
exact position l use in playing the
