Before taking up the different curve balls it would pe well for young pitch- crs to. first get control gf the ball. Control does not mean throwing the ball over the exact center of the plate, but ia working the comeérs and in keeping ithe pil where you’know the ‘ batter is weak. Don't ‘tty'to strike every man out, but gave the armas much as ‘possible, Remember there’ are cight other players besides: your- self. Work in harmony witi-. your catcher and take his‘advice as to what to throw. He has: more opportunity to study the batter than you. ‘Learn to field your position. A pitcher has many chances to handle a batted ball during a game and bad fielding on a twirler's part would be fatal. FAST AND SLOW BALLS, d To throw the fast ball grip the pill with the first two fingers on top and the thumb, underneath. Throw the ball with a swing of the shoulders and body as well as the arm. For the slow ball ‘hold the pellet with all four fingers and the thumb. Be sure to use the same motion for) throwing each ball whether curve or straight. Mix the: with your curves as nothing will fool the batter more than a~change of pace. THE INSHOOT. Keep the hand in an upright posi- tion and grip the ball firmly with’the first three fingers and the thumb.. De-| § liver the ball over the tips of ‘the fin- gers’ and with a lateral motion to make it revolve. This ball is thrown} with all the speed at your command. THE OUTCURVE. Grip the ball with the fingers of the hand and the thumb. Turn the hand downward. Let the ball pass between the thum) and the first finger with a turn of the wrist to give the rotary motion. THE DROP. Grip the ball the curve, witn the fi the thumb; the back of the hand turn- ed downward. Bring the arm up high and at the highest point of the swing, release the ball between the first fin- ger‘and the thumb, pulling the arm back at the same time. ‘Try to do me as for out- two fingers and “The last one ¥ Ihave,too!” It's always your last cigar that’s broken —and just when 77; you Ce want it most. .Takeafriendlytipandbuy | ELDALLO “Each Cigar in its own Aumidor” next time!
