Since holding the ball is so es-
sential to a first baseman. he must
work to seek perfection in fielding.
I am going to suggest a. rather
Sll'nlllu thing; that 1 am sure will
Lt-nd to make ewigv first baseman
more accurate in can-hing a bail if
he will rigidly adhere
vice.
It is this—squeeze
that is thrown to you.
In other words. at the comple-
tion of every play simply tighten up
on the ball as if you were trying to
crush it. This not’ only tends to
maho more certain the catch hut
develops in the hands and forearms
ti act of muscles that are most use-
ful to the correct play of every first
hasniiian.
'i‘ite habit of fighting the ball is a
fault peculiar to many novice first
baseinen. This is due to a tenscncss
rather than case that should char-
acterize the play.
Learn to give with the throw. The
body and arms should he supple, in
a sense relaxed, rather than stiffen-
ed up as the play is about to be
completed.
A finished first baseman must
learn to handle a thrown ball in
every conceivable position. in all
probability. during the course of the
season he makes more one-handed
catches than all the rest of the team
put together. For that reason it is
wet! for him to play every ball in
practice just as he would he forced
to in the game.
Playing tall with one hand is
considered grandstand stuff as a
rule but that isn't true of a. first
baseman. it is a necessary part of
his stock in trade.

his victory at. the lust battle which
margin was a very narrow one.
