We had been dis- mussing a tough game the Red Sox had lost the day previous, largely due to the fact that the Boston pitcher had played right into the hands of a pinch hitter on the opposing team. Known as a batter who likes a fast ball, letter hight, the pitcher proceeded to deliver just such a ball. The pinch hitter broke up the game, . o “In the old days every pitel considerable thought back o ball. He tried to work on the from every angle. The lively seems to have destroyed the pitche sense of proportion,” continued Chance, Having gone through the various stages that played a part in the career of Chance, 1{flas able to appreciate his sizeup of the pitehing situation. I can well remember when cvery major !league club boasted four pitchérs of almost equal ability. Most of the clubs second-string pitchers who were almost as effective, In those da there were no soft spots, The batters were compelled to look at good pitehy ing day after day, It's different now. Perhaps the New York Yankecs is the major league club that can pre- sent w pitching staff that compar with those of the old days, Teams op- posing tife Yanks have their work cut out. Good pitching explains why the Yanks have won threo pennants, tinal- ly topping it off with a world scrics, Lt .
