DETROIT MANAGER ADVISED HIM NOT TO USE BAD BALL Giant Ace was Bush Leaguer When He Discovered Favor- ite Way of Throwing By HARRY GRAYSON New York, June 15—(NEA)—Car) Owen Hubbell, who added up the greatest string of consecutive victories in baseball history - 24 - stumbled onto his famous screwball by accident. Hubbell, the Giant who can’t be beat, was a curve and fast ball pitcher until he lost control of a ball that slipped off his forefinger while he was southpawing for the Okla- homa City club of the Western League in 1924. “The ball, moving a bit in the palm, shot off. the second finger, took a pe- cullar drop approaching the plate, and the batter missed it a foot,” plains the gentlemanly Hubbell. “I experimented with it for the re- mainder of the game. “I noted that it became a semi-slow ball that dropped away from right- hand batters and curved in on left- handers, “The batters seemed to have diffi- culty in hitting it solidly. “They whacked my fast and wide curve high and far, so I learned by my own experience that the best thing I had was the screwball.” Hubbell continued to employ the screwball against the advice of such famous baseball men as Tyrus Cobb and George Moriarty. Cobb and Moriarty, Detroit man- agers, feared that it would ruin the then youngster’s arm and talked Hubbell out of using it for a time and to such an extent that he twice was returned to the minors. Decides to Take Chance .Shipped to the Tigers’ Beaumont, spring of 1928, Hubbell sat in his room the first night and took stock of himself. He had explained to Moriarty that he believed he could deliver if per- mitted to go back to the screwball, but ‘the former third baseman and ‘current American League umpire ad- vised against it. “I decided, that if I didn’t throw h *| the screwball I'd be nothing more than an ordinary minor league pitch- er,” says Bill Terry's meal ticket. “I made up my mind either to get somewhere or ruin my arm and finish my baseball career. “I spent the remainder of.spring training with Beaumont specialzing on that one delivery, ae 8 “I wanted to perfect it — to control of, it. “I used it whenever I got into trouble, “It came through for me all right, because in mid-season of 1928 I was sold to New York. : “My two managers with the Giants —John McGraw and Bill Terry—told me that if I could win in the Na- tional League with my screwball to keep using it. “And here I am, and they tell me that I’m still doing pretty good.” Hubbell perhaps is the most modest of a very orderly ‘group of Polo Gounders. “Let's not talk about the winning streak,” he aserts, softly. “The boys win for me. All I do is throw the screwball. The boys pick up the hot bounders, and throw out their men;| catch long, fies; and get the neces- Efficiency Proves Boomerang Hubbell is so effcient that there are times when he nearly falls a victim to his own incomparable skill.
