IHugh Bradley, who has been play-| ing first base for the Boston Red Sox in place of Manager Stahl, is a real big leaguer both in the field and at bat. “Hub” Perdue continues to be the winning pitcher for the Boston Braves. Without “Hub” the Braves would have been backed off Cape Cod by this time. Bud Sharpe’s Oakland team made a swell start in the Pacific Coast League. The Oaks lost the opening game and then won thirteen straight games.

In the first place, the lively ball makes more hitting,” vouchsafes Umpire Billy Ev- ans. “In the second place, I have no ticed that in batting against this live Her ball almost double the number o1 fouls have been hit, elther of the long, raising variety or those which carom off the bat against the stands. “In addition to this, there has been another vital change in the game. - In- stead of walking up and slamming away at the first good ball pitched, the average batsman of this season makes each pitcher work to the limit Unless they are over the plate they twenty-five cent bleacher seats. It is only a question of time when the two- bit boys will be a thing of the dim past. pass them along.

But' Flaherty -had an ° experience ‘with his quick return delivery one day that took the heart out of him. It was In a game with the Cubs, and Johnny Kling was at the plate. Pat sent the ball over the pan and Kling swung at it with all his might. He missed the ball - entirely and the catcher shot the pill back to Flaherty, who immediately returned it. Now the momentum of Kling’s swing made him revolve around like a top and on his second turn he met Pat’s return ball square on the nose, and the wal- lop was good for three bases and the game. The Baseball Slaves. The principal reason. why Ameri. cans do not take seriously the pro- posed congressional investigation of | so-called “baseball trust” is because they know so much about baseball, says the Cincinnatl Times-Star.
