Pinch Hitters More

Pinch hitting becomes. more
prominent each season. fAl-

Yankees and Giants have used
the pinch hitter with much sac

for the Giants and Earl Combs
for the Yanks. Strange as it
may seem, many pinch hitters
are more consistent that regu-
lar batsmen. There was time
when it was a serious reflec-
ton on a ball players ability

at bat. Now it has become one
of the most generally used
bits of strategy in the game.
