Billy Evans Says

showing to advantage when the
going is toughest is the supreme
test. Coming through with a base
hit, when safe knock means the
ball game, is far more difficult than
with the bases empty.
The crisis, the pinch as We say in
sport, is the tough spot. 1t calls for
the best that is in the athlete. If
he has Il failing in his, makeup 1t
will crop out at such time.
Psychology plays its part in the
old pinch. There are some athletes
who are not lacking in courage per-
| baps, yet who invariably falter when
it is up to them to deliver the punch
that means victory.
Sheir temperament is such that
they cannot rise to the situation.
On the other hand certain athletes
regarded as only ordinary in the
long run shine in the pinch.
I know of big league players who
seldom hit better than $50 who are
more feared by pitchers than men
better.
One of the most courageous cx-
hibitions that has ever come under
my observation on the ball field
was the no-run, no-hit game Charley
Robertson of the Chicago White
SoX pitched against Detroit.
In this game Robertson accom-
plished the unusual feat of not al
lowing a single Detroit player to
reach first base. Each one Of the q
men to face him was disposed of in
order.
The remarkable feature of this
game was the fact that it was in
the spring of the year when pitchers
are not their best and the advan-
tage is always with the batsman;
also that it was a recruit pitcher
working against the hardest hitting
aggregation in the American League.
However, to me the outstanding
feature was the way Robertson
worked under fire, the Detroit club |
using every legitimate method to
break him down.
The contention was raised that |
Robertson was doctoring the ball.
Trick pitching having been ruled
out, such a practice was Of course
illegal.
Time after time, after player
had been retired, several members
of the Detroit club would insist that
the umpire take look at the. ball.
1t had been raining for several
days prior to the game, the ground,
was slow and heavy, and when the
ball struck the black dirt Of the in
field it soon became discolored.
Neither Dick Nallin nor myself
who umpired the game, could see
that Robertson was doing anything
illegal, but to avoid possible pro-
tests threw out many balls and made
Robertson work with new ones.
Through it all Robertson merely
smiled, tossed the ball to the umpire
whenever requested without the
slightest show of Indignation, and
tended to his knitting.
During the last five innings the
game was delayed score Of times
to have the BALL examined. And it
seemed to me as if Robertson, realiz-
ing that he had the Tigers fused,
went through certain unnecessary
operations simply to excite the Curl
osity of the opposition. 1t was the
most courageous bit of pitching
have ever seen
