TALKING
IT OVER
WITH JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Aug. s.

NEW YORK, Aug. s.
r HAVE been assured that the gen.
i tlemen who control major league
baseball will appoint board Of in
curry to consider the question Of the
so-called lively ball and its correla-
tives at the annual winter meetings
There is a great deal of theory and
supposition about the desirability OF
the present character Of the game,
It is difficult to tell just where the
blame lies for the excess of hitting.
Such obvious factors as the abolition
of trick deliveries and the passing OF
the place hitter Of course help to eX-
plain the mounting base hit totals.
But one day a pitcher will pitch a
four-hit game and the next time he
starts be buried under a snowdrift
of triples.
II the ball is the same, how are these
startling form reversaIs, frequent enough
In both leagues, to be explained?
Moreover. does it make great deal OF
difference one way or another?
THE RECENT NEW YORK TELEGRAM
POLL, DEVELOPED MANY ENTHUSIASTIC
ADVOCATES OF THE LOOSE HITTING
BALL GAME AND MANY MORE WHO
CONDEMN 1T. I AM NOT SURE PRE-
CISELY WHAT A BOARD OF INQUIRY
CAN DO ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR
SITUATION, IF ANYTHING.
DUT there is one thing that such
ID a board can, and should do, and
that is to come out for uniform out
field distances. To my mind this is
the most ridiculous phase Of the
home run hysteria. In the old days
it didn't matter particularly. There
was no commercial stress on the
four base hit. But now it is strictly
a box Office come on.
In the Red sox park batter has to
slam the ball S5S feet to reach the right
field stands. At the Yankee stadium
drive of 2s4 feet will get there. In Gin
cinnati the distance from plate to right
field Is Ss3 feet and at the Polo Grounds
the distance IS 2 ~ AtNt "ANN
could be more absurd?
Il n
Well, we can't tear down our ball parks
and rebuild them Just because some Of the
stands happen to be close to the plate
roar the magnates. Nobody is asking them
To tear the parks down and rebuild them;
Init what in the name of common sense
a. - rrsyent then, from limiting hits into
short stands all over the league to two
bases?
TN the smaller parks when the
crowds overflow onto the field.
ground rules are put into effect and
balls driven into the crowd are auto
matically scored as two-base hits.
The theory in these instances is that
If the crowd wasn't there the out
fielder would have caught the ball.
The same theory applies with equal
logic to the short stands; il they
weren't there the out1elders would
catch pop-ups that go for nome
runs.
don't believe old Gus Fl. Fan gets
kick out of these phoncy hOmerS and
about the only distinction accruing to
the PLAYER who hits one Is that 1t IS
scored as such in the records. Well
this is the last abnorminal sauaWk III
