Behrends Juneau, Alaska | Acorns are now seven and one-half || THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 1940. » AP FEATURE SERVICE It takes a fast runner with a strong throwing arm to be an out- fielder. He also must be able to judge fly balls and play bounding grounders. | These are the requisites, And whether you are just another fly- chaser or an exceptional outfielder depends on your quick starts, know- ledge of opposing hitters and abil- [ity to always peg to the right base. An outfielder should study ri- val batters almost as mueh as the pitcher and catcher. Then he will know how to play every hitter. Some batters are “pull-hitters.” Others are “straight-away hit- ters” or ‘“opposite field hitters.” By studying the hitting habits of !opponents you'll know where they generally will hit a curve or fast ball, high or low ball, inside or outside pitch, Get Under Flics Quickly This information, plus knack of getting.off after ball the crack of the bat, often means the difference between a hit and a putout. It is best to get under a fly ball quickly and al- ways keep the ball in front of you. This prepares you for any tricks the ball may play in the wind as it comes down. As every hitter comes to bat you should consider the situation and decide in advance where the ball should be thrown if it is hit to your field. A good catch or stop doesn't mean much if the out- | fielder then throws to the wrong base. Outfielders should throw ovei- hand. Keep your pegs low and aim them so they reach the catch- er or infielder on the first bounce, except on short relays. Where to Throw On long fly balls with the bases filled, throw to second, providing the runner on first is “tagged up.” That means if he is in position to run to second after the catch. If the runner at second is “tagged the a |up” and the runner at first is not, you should throw to third. On short flies the ball can be thrown to the plate, if there is a runner on third. With a man on| first, singles near the fou! lines should be thrown to third.. On hit and run plays the bail is nearly | always thrown to second base. | The left, center and right field-| ers should always back up third, second and first base respectively, | to guard agginst any wild throws that might get away. | If you want to develop into a| good outficlder, you must always be on your toes, quick to shift your defense to meet the individual hitter at the plate. ————————— NOTICE | AIRMAIL ENVELOPES, show! g air route from Seattle to Nome, on| sale at J, B.
