Thursfon, A. L. Cast of,
Pitches Robins to Top

NEW YORK, July % (C.P.A.).-
Just when the plight of the Brook
Ign Robins seemed hopeless because
of the recent manhandling of the
pitching staff. Hollis Thurston, once
with the White Sox and Washing
ton, was hurled into the breach yes
terday. with the result that he shut
out the Cardinals with three hits,
/ to O.
Thurston was obtained In the
draft by the Brooklyn club last Fall
from Coast League club, but, in
spite of his excellent pitching rec
ord Of 1929, he became a bench
warmer instead of taking q regular
turn on the mound.
As result of Thurston's mag
nif1cent strategy, the Robins re-
gained first position in the National
League race. Inasmuch as the
Robins gathered only I'VE hits, vir-
tually all of the glory belonged to
Thurston.
The discovery that Thurston
could pitch a shut-out prompted
queries among devoted Brooklyn
fans as to why he had been kept out
OF action so long. If he is permitted
to work in rotation with Vance,
Elliott, Clark and one other man,
the Robins may continue to worry
the Cubs indefinitely.

tFormer Pitcher New York Giants)
Is short lead or a long lead of
a base the most successful? This
has always been much-argusd
question among ball players.
Manager McGraw OF the New York
Giants believes q short lead Is bet
ter and believe he IS right. I will
let McGraw tell 1t himself.
II always insist upon my base
runner using the short lead" he
says. with the short lead the
runner Is not worrying about being
caught OF the bag and therefore he
gets a quick start or jump and is
under full speed in a few strides"
But the runner with a long lead
must always be thinking Of pro-
tecting himself from throw or play
for the very reason that he has such
a long lead. In doing this he must
lean toward the bag in order to
get back II necessary and therefore
cannot get the jump on the ball
when 1t is thrown or hit"
: am strong believer in Nc
Graw's theory, especially for q run
ner on second or third base. On first
base, however, a long lead is often
used by great baserunners. It some
times worries pitcher and distracts
his mind from the, batter.
Save this Big League Baseball
Series, another viii appear shortly.
