HEILMAN USES
LIGHTEST BAT
American League Leader, Who
Will Be Here Tuesday, lias
4-I'ound Club
If.n t y 11.-ilm:in, the new I.al l ing
kuijj <-f tin- American League, who
will be been in the Detroit hue-up
in the game between Detroit Ameri
can! and tne Rochester liiteruaUvn
als here Tuesday, April 4, uses one
of the lightest bats ever carried to
tne plate by a baseball player. In
the ‘hands of the Titantie Heilman,
he is as big if not bigger than Babe
Ruth, the bat looks like a fungo
stick for hitting flies to the outfield
ers m practice. Ruth uses the heav-1
iest bat in baseball, a bat weigh
ing 56 ounces. Heilman’s bat
weighs only a bit more than one-half
as much.
However Heilman and his light
bat, showed Ruth how to pile up hits
and when the season ended the home
run king was comfortably far behind
the clouting Heilman. '1 his giant
from California is as good-natured
as he is big, as happy as he is pow
erful. If he had taken basebail seri
ously before last year he would long ■
ago have established himself as the I
leading right-hander of the Aineri-;
canl-eagtie.
Heilman finished the season of
1920 batting .309. In 1921 he bat
ten! for .391 and led his league.
This jump of 85 points in his . bat
ting average seems remarkable but
it is really not so extraordinary when ,
one begins to figure Heilman. Be- •
tore 1921, Heilman took baseball
I’ghtly.-. It was his ambition to go to
West Point. He always wanted to
get into the army; the army life
appealed to him. But he missed out
<>n going t > the United States mili
tary college ami when the war came
Hellman, instead of getting into the i
army, got into the navy and was j
aboard a submarine.
\\ ith the war over, and no war in |
sight for the future, the army idea ■
left Heilman and who»i Ty Cobb he ’
came .manager of the Detroit club, '
He lman settled down to play base
ball, 'then he jumped the 85 points
above mentioned and is the first
right-hander since Larry La join to
lead Ban Johnson’s organization. And
he claims he will repeat this year.
