hurlers who can deliver the goods are
a mighty scarce article in the major
leagues these days, {or the percentage
of the left handed crop which make
good in fast company is small.
Yet the fork handlers who have
class are so good_that they ha1e no
trouble monopolizlng the upper ten
among pitchers of the two majors in
effectiveness.
Every major league club with the
exception of the Athletic will carry
at least. one crack southpa $7 this year,
and six clubs will depend largely on
the boys with the freak delivery ,to
carry them through. In the Ameri-
can League tbe Browns, White Sox
andYankees are strong in lefthand-
crs. Each club has three hurlers who
toss from the port side. Plank, Koch
and Weilman, ot‘ the Browns, and Cul-
lop, Love and Mogridge are all de-
pendable slabbers. The White Sox.

In all there were thirty-live south-

sixteen big league clubs last season,
