ITHERE are three kinds of bal
games-a game with a close
u score; a game with your team
leading; game with your team be-
hind.
Well take the first one-a game
with a close score. Well even say
the score is tied and our side is at
bat and the innings are wearing on.
The pitchers are very effective and
runs are hard to get. A base on
balls may lead to run to decide
the issue.
A stolen base following the base
on balls may decide 1t. A clever base
runner should take such d lead that
he has an even chance to steal. Even
though the opposition catcher is a per
feet pegger it is we'll to take the
this game and the run necessary
taking a chance.
The base on balls and the stolen
base naturally will somewhat upset
your opponents. By forcing them to
make plays where perfect execution
is required to prevent you from scor-
ing, you are making them take
chances of erring.
If there are two men out take
a chance and send your runner on
home, particularly so if the batter
is not particularly strong against the
pitcher facing him.

CATCHING A FLY.

The best way to trap a fly ball
is to take it on the glove with the
knuckles down. That is the natural
style. 1t is the standard of big
leaguers. The upper player in the
illustration is catching a fly in the
correct manner. The player in the
lower illustration is using the
w style, an uncertain one, as the
ball cannot be trapped as securely
1t is likely to slip on through to
the ground.
