The manager of the tean) never raises the usual kick against the alleged trick pitcher, as to his methods. The.players never ask to have the umpire fook at the ball for signs of trickery. Never do they alibi when they strike out, that the ‘ball has ‘sailed a foot. Unquestionably, the pitcher has a decided advantage over the batsman who has the wrong mental attitude, who. is worrying morg about the condition: of-the ball than hitting it. That is the basis of the theory used by the manager of the club who seems able to combat the evils of trick pitching. t “Don’t fuss about the ball, but hit it. You must swing at it to do that. Don’t let the trick pitcher get you into-the hole. Take your cut at every ball that looke good. Pick on. the cripple. Any pitcher who docters the ball is sure to have trouble with ‘his control. Take ad- vantage of that fact.” ? one In brief, that is the manager's theory relative to trick pitching.
