THE UNEXPECTED The importance attached to ‘back- ling a play in baseball is only ‘apparent when the execution of same is faulty. lattie thought is given the catcher as he backs up first base for a prob- {able overthrow on the part of some ‘infielder, if it is accurate. | It is when he fails to back up and ithe play goes wrong, enabling, the runner to take an extra base, that the fans realize the playon, has slipped up on one of the fundamen- tals of the game. When the pitcher on a throw. from the outfield to the plate backs up {the catcher, no thought is given the act if the throw is accurate’ and the ball is properly handled. It is when the throw takes a bad bound. or is wide of the plate and goes on to the grandstand, because the pitcher has failed-to play proper baseball, that the. importance of the s made manifest. Recently in a game at Chicago I saw an unusual play that brought to my attention all the more forcibly the value of backing up on every: play. A Chicago player hit a fly ball to left center. Wingo, the Detroit left fielder, called for the ball. Manush, contin- ued to back up the play. The ball went right through Win- go's hands, but to the amazement of the crowd, it was caught by ‘Man- , Wingo getting an assist .on t was really an error. proper baseball on Man- It proved that it pays Tt ush's to back up, even though a great ma- was part. no jority of the time, apparent good results. fae: MAKING GOOD ea “I hope to bat at least 40 points better than I did last season,” was remark orge Sisler cf the St. | Louis Browns made to me in, the training camp in Florida, “Sisler can’t hit a low ball,” re- peated the pitchers of the American League in a chorus, when apprised of Sisler's opinion as to his batting average. “Keep the ball low and inside and he isn’t a .300 hitter,” said the star twirlers. Apparently, the wrong somewhere. Sisler proceeds to hit safely one or more times: in his first 15 games, averaging well over 400. That makes it appear that Sisler will make good the prediction that he would bat 40 points better than last season, when he just made the select circle of .300 hitters. a dope has gone It might be well to mention that sler has made practically all his hits on low balls, inside. \ EIGHT OF FIRST 11 SAFETIES ARE FOR EXTRA BASE By NEA Service Chicago, May 12.—Leo Hartnett, star catcher for the Chicago Cubs, hung up a rather odd record during the first 10 days of the 1925, season. Hartnett, in that period, not only crashed out six home runs but he also garnered a pair of doubles out of 11 safe blows. Quite a display of extra-base hitting for so early in the season. | Moreover, he topped the National League in run-getting with the same number as he made hits—ll... It’s a bit unusual for a baskstep to lead the pack in the run column. But doing a Jot of out-of-the-ordinary things this campaign. Hartnett, by the way, with the Cubs three seasons. ch year his hitting has improved, nia season he clouted for a mark of .299, this jamboree he should better that performance considerably. So sensational has Hartnett’s work at the plate been, that Man- ager Killefer has: placed him in the cleqnup position,.a rather ynusual post for a catcher.
