The SChoOlbOy Is last Dali
pitcher. too. and now he stands on
the threshold of an unprecedented
record. This would seem to indi-
cate that the fast ball is the
essence of pitching genius, that
without it no man can hope TO ap-
proach invincibility in the box.
And yet, the Schoolboy, facing
the most testing game Of his ca
reer. finds he must place his main
reliance on a curve and a change
of pace rather than on his fast
one. He has a bruised ankle. He
can't put his full weight down on
it. This shortens his delivery and
minimizes the velocity of his fast
ball.
II so happens the Schoolboy has
