O O 0
If the error is discovered before
the batsman has been retired or
reaches first base, it. is a very easy
matter to correct the error. Other-
wise it is impossible.
When such a thing, happens. the
team at bat can correct the slip in
the batting order by substituting the
proper batsman.
The proper batsman shall take the
count of balls and strikes that was
on the improper batsman. There

Eiil‘or Good.
The evil or the good that the golf
swing has on the batting power of a
big league ball player will always be
a subject for disciisslon pro and con.
The veteran “Kid" Gleason. who
has starred in every diamond role.
player. coach and manager. is
strongly against golf during the
playing season and only lukewarm
for it in the idle months.
"The stiff left arm. so unnecessary
to good golf. is all wrong in base-
ball." says Gleason. "It is heund to
change the style of the batter and
‘ has a tendency to make pop-up hit-
tors!

Big Opportunity.
Opportunity is half the battle in
sport. {mu-:ntarly 1f the athlete has
the ability to deltver.’
In the sensational showing made
by the New York Americans. the
play of Catcher Collins has figured
prominently. _.
Yet when Collins was brought
back from the minors. it was really
as an understudy' to Benny Ben»
cough. who had performed so well
for the Yanks last season. -
A sore arm so handicapped Ben-
gough this spring that tho-catching
burden was put right up to Collins
and he more than made goodylie

hand and held on.

Yankeew‘Pitching.
In the several long .winning
streaks staged by the Yankees this
year. the power of the club‘s attack
has been given most of the credit
for its success.
In the orgy of base hits that the
Yanks have sprinkled over the Am-
erican League diamonds. the pitch-
ing has apparently been overlooked.
Here is what no less authority
than Ty Cobb. who should be able
to judge good pitching. says: ‘
"True. the Yanks have been get-
tiu their pitchers plenty of runs.
but a lot of them weren't needed.
The best pitching we ns'v‘e seen‘ this
year was Placed on exhibition by
the New York and Philadelphia
twirlers.
“Don‘t overlook the Yankee staff
In giving proper credit to the-club's
