Clever er Handling of Weak Pitching Staff Four Cleveland Twirl Twirlers Take On a Hard Workout Every After- noon and They Are Handled by Rubber Just as Though They Pitched a Game. L leaguer, has taught the man gers a lesson in the handling of pitchers. That lesson, incidentally, explains just how the Cleveland In- dians have managed to keep flirting with the American League lead in face of the weakest pitching staff in the circuit. Leo Fohl's method is best exem- plifed in Bob Shawkey, premier twirler of the Yanks, who grabbed the idea a little ahead of the Cleve- land leader, Christy Mathewson is now a strong advocate of the same system, “Did you ever notice,” said Math- ewson while here with the Reds, “that the pitchers who have to warm up’ continually are in better shape than the regulars who rush out and work a couple of innings to be prepared in case of emergency? “I'll tell you,” he to an inquiring look, “The pitcher who rushes out there and warms up two innings only to return to the bench is usually cov- ered with perspiration. He then sits on the bench and in his damp cloth- ing gets chilled, His muscles become stiffened and it lakes him a week or more to work out the stiffness, “Watch Bob Shawkey.” he su gested. “At the end of every game you will see him down in the bull pen warming up for two or three innings. Whether he has to pitch or not, he is always ready, but the trick is that as the game is over he rushes into the shower and gets all the benefit of a short workout. The pitchers who art earlier get cold and clammy and ufter accordingly. “I¢ all pitchers would use the Shaw- key method every one of them would be in shape to start any time.” "The answer 1s obvious. It is truo that Shawkey uses this system, and it happens to be true that he has pitched in more games than any pitcher in the American League.
