If the great Ed Delahanty, of the Phillies, had a - ness no one ever found it, for “Big Ed” ugging the best of pitchers up until the time he jumped from the Phillies to the American League, where he was playing when he died. What Would Champion Cobb Do? There was no such thing as find- ing out if e batter had a “weakness” during the days when the batter was allowed to cail for the kind of & ball he wanted to hit; either high or low, and was not compelled to strike at it unless it was right there. Wonder what would bappen today if Ty Cobb and the other star batsmen of the r leagues were allowed to stand at the plate until they got a ball “in their groove.” Studying the batter has advanced along with all the other points of the game which have made baseball the most scientific of its class of outdoor sports. Where it was all individuel play in the years gone by, it is all team play and system now, and studying the batter is one of the most important parts of the system. It is a catchers duty to know every batsman in the league. and, if possible, to know what kind of a ball he can hit, and what he cannot hit, and to coach his Dn.d:er in keeping the ball out of “the groove.” The better he can do this the better catcher he is, and it is just as im- portant in his work as it is to stand back of the bat and receive the ball from _the. pitcher or to nail & base- s But when catcher and pitcher think they have the “weakness” of a batter, and the latter walks up and siams one 4nto the seats for a home run, or drives the ball out of the lot, the fan shuffles about in his seat, turns to the one at his elbow and imparts the same oid info on. “What & Boob he was to put one ‘in the groove’ for that guy TRIO OF LIONTWEIGHTI.
