| that MANY. as was the manner III which
he won them. Old ball players who hit
against him in exhibition games told
other old guys that they had better
| watch that Sorrell kid.
| Sorell'S earned run average was not
so much, but this was due to his habit
nf inserting bases on balls where they
did him the least good. II a pitcher
rant control the ball and runs up long
record of bases on balls. his earned run
average suffers.
The thing that got the old timers
when they watched Sorrell at work was
the unmistakable grit he showed when
he got in bad, and also the speed that
he had when he wasn't in bad. What
he needs most to make him success,
according to those who have looked him
over. Is experience and q little change
Of pace that will permit him to let up
or his arm when he feels like 1t. He
hasn't been able to combine change Of
pace with control Of the ball--a little
affiiction that befails almost all young
PLAYERS. They needn't feel badly about
it. because Walter Johnson did not hare
a change Of pace when he began to
pitch and he got along very well.

Little by little the Detroit team is
getting together a staff of pitchers who
should be effective In the coming sea-
son. Carroll must show something this
year If he is going to do 1t at all. Glib

the Spring of 1927 and then coagulated.
Hollway is an enduring boy who got
his share Of work In 1927. Stoner and
his curve ball worked lot. Whitehill
had season that did not turn out as
some folks thought II would. Lefthand-
ers are queer in their temperament and
il may be that the great year for White
hill is in the of1ing. Van Glider. who
has been taken over from the st. Louis
Browns, is steady pitcher. and Detroit
needed one like that.
Moriarty has made changes toward
crystallizing team strength. and If he
has succeeded the Detroit team will do
better this year than 1t did In 1927.
