Clark Griffith. owner of the Wash. ington club was the speaker. The place was Thmpe, Flo. l wee sitting next to him in the grandstand. watching his team play the Boston Braves. .A rather unusual statement when you remember that Fred Marbcrry didn't work a full game for the Washington club lost season Incl- denlally he started only a very few. How ever. starting ball games isn't Fred Marberry's forte. nor is the working of ‘nine innings his special- ty. Ho features saving ball games. Baseball records never do justice to a relief pitcher. The statistics show that Marberry won'only eight games for Washington and lo -slx in season.” lvlng farther into the dope. we find that Marberry took part in Is games end was responsible for sav- ing many of them after the veteran stare. Johnson. Reuther and Cove- ieskie, faltered in the late innings. O 0 e “Had Manager Harris been able to call upon Msrberry in the final gamaof the. world series. we would never have lolt it." continued Grif- fith. “imagine how hard it would have been to hit his blinding speed that dark afternoon. but he had a bad arm: hurt it in the third game." While we mm discussing Mar- berry. he began to warm up as Pitcher Alex Ferguson started waver. He looked great. showed me also an ease to his delivery that arm had recovered its strength! A pitchgr with a sore arm invari- ably affects some mannerisms that are not a part of his regular deliv- cry. The moment Marberry started to the Braves his delivery lost its smoothness. He began favoring the arm and was batted hard. It wasn't a very auspicious debut: neither was it encouraging to Owner Grif- fith who placed so much depend- ence in him. “The arm is O. K." said Trainer Mills Martin. "Fred still leeks con- fidence in it still believes it is sore. Notice how differently he pitched in practice and in the game" American League race out of the way. it is apparent that Fred liar- berry‘s arm is right again. During that. period he has several slices been rushed to the roll or an e pitcher in the late’ things “til. Washington holding a slight Ill every instance there have been one for more runners on the bases slid h most cases a hose hit would have changed the complexion of the ball game. And Wherry has more than held his own. So. if you ass willing to take the word of so wisofia head at Clark arifflth. the return to form of Mar- berry moans another pennano for Washington despite the present . standing of the Nets in the chase. ‘ W National League w.

The 40~yeer-oid Jack Quinn. pitch- ing for the Athletics. has won the majority of his starts. some of them by shutouts and others by low scores. Debut in 1808. . Quinn is the only spitball pitcher I have ever‘ seen who apparentlyhas not‘enffered arm injury. He says throwing the moist one is not as hard on the arm as the curve. "Practically every spitbnll pitcher uses _s. snap at the wrist and that is what hurts." says Jack. “I thr0w the spltbell with the same motion as the fast one and wet the bail only slightly." , Jack Quinn first came to the ma- Jora in 1900. He has been in and out three times since his American League debut with the New York Yankees. National Leagues.
