three hits and a couple of Fife

and seemingly put the game
in the cooler. But the battle
was not over. Hang on to

MISPLAYS FAIL TO
DISTURB FARM BOY

"ONE of the things I liked best
" about him although it
was sad for us :. e.. was that three
misplays behind him in a single
inning didn't disturb him in the
least. With Dixie Walker on third
base, Teller blew third strike by
Charley Gehringer and, after
walking Hank Greenberg. struck
out Rudy York on three pitches.
"Feller perhaps Is as fast
as any pitcher who ever
threw ball. II is practically
impossible to hit his low
curve.
His fast ball drifts away from
left-hand hitters and into the
hands to handcuff right-hand hit
tiers. Left-hand hitters pull away
from it and it catches the inside
corner for strikes"
De Baker wishes he had Bob
Teller
He also is happy that Cleveland
hasn't three others just like him.

Herky Jerky Elbow
Motion Eliminated,
Bob Gains Control
BY HARRY GRAYSON

DETROIT Delmar Baker is
~ still talking about Robert
William Andrew Feller's surperb
pitching performance against his
Detroit Tigers in the opener in
Cleveland.
Del Baker tells why Bob Teller
Is now ready to take his place
with the pitching greats.
The Oregon hop grower says
the Van Meter wonder should win
rs games this trip like break
ing sticks.
Rapid Robert is only 20. yet
there is not a better pitcher in
baseball today.
Baker. who confesses that
ne got only one hit off Walter
johnson in four years, says
he easily can imagine Teller
on a given day being the
greatest pitcher who ever
threw a baseball.
The Detroit manager hasn't the
slightest doubt but that the Iowa
farm boy will stand up through
the years to take his place among
the immortals.
"Feller has eliminated the
herky jerky elbow motion which
shortened the pitching career of
Smoky 10 Wood" points out the
cd backstop.
when / first saw Bob l pre-
dicted that he wouldn't last long
because of his peculiar delivery,
and on a couple of occasions l
feared l was right when he devel-
oped sore arm.
NEW DELIVERY Lessons
FELLER'S ARM STRAIN
"DUT Bob has smoothed his
ID delivery lessened the
strain on his arm. There was no
necessity for his spraddling out
as he used to do.
The two most important
things in connection with pitch
ing are balance and resourceful-
ness. The one is physical. the
other mental.
"Feller now has both.
His delivery was most ortho-
dox when he struck out 10 of US
the other afternoon.
