York Yankees, deserved to rank with
the ten best pitchers. He is one Of
the five pitchers to win ninety or
more games in three consecutive
seasons. I always admired him and
was happy to have him with our
club as a coach in the spring Of 1924.

Chesbro is one of those deserving
fellows who was deprived of his
life's ambition by the width of an
G.yelash. Back in 1904, when Clark
Griffith was running the New York

decided the pennant on the last day
of the season. He was beaten and

agement most Of the season. He
had pitched very little because, he
claimed to have a sore arm. And
yet before the game he shagged
flys, as we say, and made at least
a dozen perfect throws from deep
centerfield to the plate.
Speaking of Bender's great speed,
q friend Of mine once asked Um-
pire Connolly this question: "In
your years as an umpire did you
ever see a pitcher with as much
speed az Walter Johnson?
"Yes" was the veteran umpire's
reply, "Cllief Bender, when he
was in his prime, could throw
but he would only let himself out
once or twice during a game.
Usually I'm Q tight place with

Bender shoot the ball to the
catcher before the batter could
get his bat around. Bender how
ever could not pitch an entire
game with that much speed"
Mordecai Brown belongs in the
list Of ten leading pitchers. He
was famous with the Cubs but
being National Lacquer 1 didn't
get to see him as much as other
pitchers. From a publicity stand
point, his chief fame lay in his
many pitching duels against Matty
and the Giants. But his effective
work in the box came, at least
part, from an injury. He met with
an accident which left but three
fingers on his pitching hand. This
really proved to be a blessing be-
cause it became possible for him
to get a peculiar hold on the ball
that produced a deceiving curve.
Brown was an extraordinary field
er, perhaps as good as Bender.

Waverly sported q year ago.
When the Waverlys shot 1926

Lewis 432 was two pins shy of

He would have been first had he

Disgrace" Mike Martin told me. in
discussing Chesbro. No matter how
close the score or how fierce the
battle, he never saw an excuse for
losing. "And let me tell you another
thing about those days." added Mike,
when Chesbro wins his game he
gets a rundown. When he loses he
pulls on his shirt and clothes and
beats it home" Mikes idea was to
take little dig at the pampering
pitchers and players demand in
modern baseball. And guess Mike
isn't very far wrong.

Every now and then Earl Lewis
gets bead on the headpin and
holds it for the evening and on
these occasions his team invariably
achieves something noteworthy.
Trying to keep up with Lewis, the
Phillips bowIers hung up set Of
1928 and whitewashed the King
, pins in an important set. The
victory gave them a two-gamS
lead in the pennant race.
Net more than half a dozen
duckpin sets in the 1900 class
have been rolled in Washington
and Earl Lewis has had q part
in four Of them. He was q star
when the old Royals, in an inter
city match with Roanoke, shot
the first 18OO-class total. 1t was
1912.
He was a leader when the Wav.
erly team last season, in the Ma
tional Capital League, rolled 1926
and followed it one week later with
1916. or thereabout. In the Royal
performance, that established one
record that has been beaten, 1912
for the first three games, and one
mark that still stands, 2974 for
five games. Lewis was high man
with 622.
He rolled around $50 in each Of
the two big Waverly sets and
comes through with 432 with the
Phillips team. Incidentally, the

owner and wound UP with the bat
boy. At the last world series he
told me some things about Friscn

was always deliberate when pitch
ing, as Connie Mack once remarked
to me. Eddie Plank always tried
to make each pitched ball q certain
piece OF work. He wasted few
balls. His best fooler was. an in
side ball. The leading batters in
the league couldn't solve ii. To
all appearances, it would be inside
and then with a quick jerk, it
broke away and across the plate.
