proximately 6 1.6 runs a game.
In the 1926 race they have main
tanned an average of 712 runs game.

uitlOIlS.
Il still do not believe the American
League ought to have considered the
introduction of the resin bag in any
way" Griff says. Il fear 1t Will
pave the way to the return of the
freak pitching we used 10 have some
years ago and ! do not think the
base bali public wants that kind OF
pitching again.
Just how this "honor" system IN
troduced with respect to the use OF
the resin will work out IS prob
lematical In accordance with the
rule formulated by the joint rules
committee, American League UNI
pires now will carry a resin bag to
the field, but the pitchers are to be
requested" by their club presidents
not to use it.
However, it IS understood that
should a pitcher ask for the dust the
umpire must accommodate him. Some
hurlers make take advantage OF 1t,
but others may refrain from doing
so, fearing they will incur the dis
pleasure of the club owner.
Ban Johnson seems TO be riding TO
another controversy with Judge
Lands and ii is general feeling
among base ball men here that should
Johnson attempt to censure any
PLAYER for using the resin bag that
player would have the full support
of the Judge.
