Baseball had progressed to the throw stage in’ Radbourre's time and he used an underhand delivery, which was fairly easy on his arm but he used himself up with such disregard for what it cost him Physically that he practically pitehed his arm into ustlessness. It. was Radbourne who won the championship for Providence in 1884. In twenty-seven consecutive games that he pitched he won twenty-six. In four games against Boston ho pitched three shut outs. But Kis arin was paying the price of his devotion to the club and his regard for his fellow players. When he grose in the morning he could not lift it to his shoulder in the latter part of the long strain that he put upon it. Then he would go to the ball park and limber up in the old fashioned way, which meant that he pitched and pitched until jhis muscle felt warm, although the | man suffered agony in the process. }'They had no trainers, no masseurs |no baking processes in those days.

He never flinched although he endured pain that. would make the modern pitcher take to the woods and call for all the doctors in the city to help relieve him. Radbourne was most successful en he used an underhand side arm delivery: There has been printed a story to the effect that he could throw an incurve, that he used the spitball and did’ not know it, and that he stopped the ball with a drop. He could do none of these. He never pitched an incurve in’ his life and his drop ball was.so slight it never would be considered ‘to be drop by a pitcher who. depended upon that type of delviery to be moat succensfill His ferfect control, at least as perfect-as any pitcher’ever had, his knowledge of what batters did not like and a change. of pace that started and finished with the same motion made him great.
