CHICAGO. June 23.-——Hcre are rea—
sons advanced by some of baseball's
leaders in explaining the increased
long distance hitting:
Tris Speaker. manager of the world
champion Cleveland Indians—“Inef-
fective pitching is the cause. They've
barred the emery hall. the spltter and
all the old deliveries. The pitchers
haven't anything left but a glove and
o prayer. und they work the prayer
overtime."
Ty Cobb. manager of the Detroit
Americans—"Baseball moves in cy-
cles. We had the cycle of great base
running. the cycle of great pitching
and now we have the cycle of heavy
hitting. It won't last long."
Johnny Byers. manager or the Chi-
cago Cuba—"It's the lively ball. The
ball is so fast the players can't han-
dle it. and the force that used to be
used in bunting. now puts the ball out
of the infield. The fast ball is crip-
plln' infieldcrs and spoiling the game."
John Heydler. president of the Nat-
.tionnl League—"Babe ltuth caused it.
Babe made every one think it was
easy to hit homers, and now the hat-
iers swing their hardest. Everyone
takes a full swing at the ball; result.
more long hits than ever."
Kid Gleason. manager of the Chica-
go White Sex—“It's partly the fast
ball and partly the fact that the
weather has been so bad in the Cen-
lral West that the Western t‘luhs'
pitchers are not in condition. Most of
the has? hitting has hot-n in the East
by mern clubs ngaiust Western
ciubs' pitchers"
mat vain. president Detroit.
American League club—“It's not the
lively hall. for there is no such thing.
The-Jinlls fire all the same. The hit-
ungucaused by tho riilts prohibiting
a pitcher tron: doctorim: the ball a in-
die. He'd rub dirt on it to rough n it
up a little .spit on it and do lots of
other things to enable him to get it
better grip. These things are barred
now. and the pitchers are ineffective
as a result.”
