BASE BALL SECRETS
L-By Sol Metzger--

With a runner on first the bat
ter can best avoid hitting into a
double by driving the ball toward
riggs field. In other words, hit
behind the runner. There lis
usually a better opening there, be-
cause the first baseman is playing
close to that bag and the second
baseman has, in consequence, too
much territory to cover. so the
chances are much better for the
ball to get through these infielders
than If hit to the left side of the
