TOGETTHE
Hurlers More Aggressive Than
Ever, Says Heine—Step Out
and Meet the Ball.
T HIS is the closing article on
“How to Hit the Ball” by the
“Great Zim.” In it he declares there
is a great deal of fiction about the
batter’s ability to place his hits. He
also has some interesting things to
say about the mental duel that is al
ways being fought by the pitcher and
batter.
By HENRY ZIMMERMAN.
"Is the pitching getting better or
worse?” is a question asked of me
many times.
"Better," is always my answer. I
will explain.
i do not believe that the pitchers
of to-day have any more on the ball
than did the twirlers of five years
ago. They have no more speed.
They have no better curves and
their change of pace is no more ef
fective. But they
take more

DO not believe that any bat
ter can stand up there and
swing and drive a base hit into
any field that he chooses. Plac
ing base hits is a nice thing to
talk about, and when a man
does place one it is so apparent
that he receives a great hand;
but it has always been my be
lief that there is more fiction
than fact connected with this
subject. When I wallop I give
thanks every time I get a base
hit, and am not disappointed if
the ball does not go where I ex
pected it to go.—HEINE ZIM
MERMAN.

chances in the pinches. 1 ,. .
A rew year.: ago thtre were very few pitchers who would curve a ball
when the count woj two and three. If a batter got a pitcher in the hole
by that count the batter knew that the pitcher was going to sacrifice even -
thing he possessed in an effort to get that deciding ball over the plate. There
was no concealment about it. The pitcher simply took a chance on the bat
ter hitting the ball where a fielder was.
Only the very great stars would take a chance on curving the ball.
Now almost all of them do It. I do not believe there is a pitcher on the
Brooklyn staff who won’t curve the ball with two and three. I f they don t
get it over all good and well. They figure that the chances of scoring are
no greater if they pitch a '•urve and walk a man than if they put it square
over the pan and allowed a man to hit.
ONLY A FEW BATTERS CAN ‘PLACE A HIT.
There is little to choose between the pitchers of this year and those
of five years ago so far as headwork and mechanical ability are concerned.
But the greater frequency with which the bit and run is played, the greater
chances taken by the batter, have resulted in the pitcher taking longer
elia nces
Ever since I can remember there has been a controversy as to whether
there was such a thing as placing a hit. Some players have contended that
they could do it. The pitchers have always made the claim that the bat
ters had all they could do to connect with the ball and that it was nonsense
to believe that any batter could drop a ball where he willed.
I can’t do It. But I believe there are some batters ■who can occasionally
rnd under certain conditions. One of these is Johnny Evers. I have seen
the manager drop a base hit In short right or left field, but he did this when
tlv infield was in and when he could poke the ball over their heads.
I dc, not believe any batter can stand up there and swing and drive a
bast hit into any field that he chooses.
I know when 1 wallop I give thanks every time I get a base hit and
I’m never disappointed If I happen to hit into left when I might have got
more bases by driving Into right.
MORE FICTION THAN TRUTH IN THE CASE.
Placing base hits Is a nice thing to talk about, and when a man does
place one it is so apparent that he receives a great hand; but It has al
ways been my belief that there was more fiction than fact connected with
t.h"£ 8Ubjcct.
Sluggers are of two types—the fellows who put their bodies into the
swing and the men who swing with the arms and shoulders. I believe the
latter have the best of the argument.
Maybe I am prejudiced In their
favor for the reason that I belong to
that class.
You have seen fellows up there
who were crouched. They seemed
to b» a hit stiff of arm and when it
came to swinging they sesmed to try
to throw their body into the punch
as well as their shoulders. With the
result that the power of the muscles
and arms was lost and there was
something strained about their posi
tion.
Meets the Ball Coming.
It’s my belief that a man should
be swinging his bat freely, that he
shouldn’t be set, that he should take
a step as he meets the hall. In a
word that he should do all of his
swinging with his arms and shoul
ders. ... ^ ..
I have always tried to meet the
ball before it reached the plate in
stead cf waiting until It was sailing
over or had passed.
To tell just when to hit is so tech
nical and so involved that I do not
like to start a discussion. Men like
Jimmy Sheckard seldom hit at the
first ball. They like to wait out the
twirler, make him pitch for the plate
every moment in the hope of secur
ing bases on balls.
That’s all right for a man like
Sheckard. He is one of the best in
the world when it comes to waiting
out a pitcher. But it won’t do for
another.
First Ball Suits Zim.
If the pitcher gets the ordinary bat
ter in the hole by shooting the first
one across then he has the hitter
under a handicap. It doesn't make
a great deal of difference to me. Id
just as soon hit the first ball pitched
as any other.
That is merely a general statement.
If the pitcher happens to be going
wild I’ll wait in the hope of sending
him further into the air. Very fre
quently I hit with two balls and no
strikes. That is, if there are men on
base, because you know the pitcher is
going to put one in Uie groove in the
hope of slipping it fiver and getting
out of the hole. I do not believe that
I ever hit with three balls and no
strikes.

Tommy Murphy After
Match With Ritchie
Jim Coffroth Is Anxious to Stage
Title Bout on Admis
sion Day.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 2.—That
Tommy Murphy is more than anxious
for a match with Willie Ritchie and at
the same time believes that he is in
line for such a contest, is the tenor of
a telegram that Coffroth has received
from Jim Buckley. Coffroth wrote
Buckley recently that he was endeav
oring to engineer such a bout for Ad
mission Day, and the telegram was In
response.
Buckley assures Coffroth that Murphy
will be ready to accept the match In
the event that the plan goes through.
The manager also writes, with re
gard to Gunboat Smith, that in case
the Gunner wins from Jim Flynn in
their bout set for August 8 he has a
good offer to take the heavyweight to
England for a bout. There has been
some talk of a match between Smith
and I’elkey, but Coffroth told Buckley
that I’elkey did not seem anxious for
a match in the near future. Even
though Smith should take the trip to
England it would in no way interfere
with Tommy Murphy taking on Ritchie
for September.
CHANCE WANTS SOX TO PAY
ZEIDER’S BILLS AND SALARY
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—Frank
Chance doesn’t want the White Sox
to swap back with hirfi as a result of
his charge that he was deceived in
the Chase-Zeider-Borton deal.
The Yankee leader declared to-day
that all he asked was that the Chicago
management pay Rollie’s salary and
hospital bill until his foot is in good
shape ana he is able to resume play
ing.
“Nothing Is more absurd than the
statement that I want to get Chase
back to use him in another trade,”
said Chance.
“Right now' Zeider, In the hospital,
Is worth three Hal Chases. But I
have learned that Callahan deceived
me as to Zelder’s condition. When
he is able tJ rejoin the team, however,
he w’ill be a big help.”

Him CITY
W 3EN a batter hits the ball over
the fence within the foul lines,
so that it was a fair ball at
the time It was last in sight, he is
entitled to a home run and can not be
put out even If the ball should be re
turned to the field of play before he
completes the circuit; provided, that
fence was not less than 235 feet away
from home plate.
Hitting the ball down a steep em
bankment that was 235 feet distant
would not entitle a batter to a home
run; it’s the fence that counts. In
the case of an embankment special
ground rules should always be made.
In the absence of special ground
rules to the contrary, it is the rule In
baseball that when a batted ball goes
through a hole In the fence, or into
spectators’ boxes, or p.nywhere out of
sight of the umpire the same shall go
for a home run.
We often see a man take a hefty
swing at the ball, but miss it for the
simple reason that he so misjudged its
location as to find himself being hit
by the bail. And then because the
ball hit him he wants to take his base.
But this is one instance where he is
not entitled to take first, for the mlx-
up dounts as a strike against him. He
should not have struck at such a bad
balL
• • •
TN high class ball the batter always
*■ does what he can to block the
I catcher’s throw to bases whenever a
1 runner is trying to steal. This can
often be done quite legitimately, and
then again the rule Is often violated;
but the average spectator has little or
no Idea just what action on the part
of the batter constitutes a rule vio
lation in this connection, and what Is
perfectly permissible. The matter Is
worth an explanation.
Let us remember that the batter’s
box—one on either side of the plate,
according to whether a batter Is right-
handed or left-handed—Is 6 feet by 4
feet wide. Now, within the lines ot
this box the batter may stand where
he pleases. He may step to any side
or any corner of It to hit at the ball,
and even if he fails to hit at it he has
the right to take up his station in
any spot so as to be where he wants
to be in case the ball Is to his liking.
If he happers to take up a position
within this box rather close to where
the catcher is squatting to receive the
ball no one can object, for no one
can tfell whether he fully means to
take a whack at this particular ball,
especially if It is going to come over
the plate.
And even if It doesn’t happen to
come over he may still have to go
after It, for the “hit and run” signal
may be on. In this position of close
proximity to the opposing catcher he
may be able to Interfere very con
siderably with the catcher’s throw to
base simply through the latter being
crowded too closely—not having “el
bow" room enough. This would be
the catcher’s own fault, for had he ob
served how close he was to the bat
ter—the latter standing where he has
a full right to stand—he should have
backed away from that batter and
made sure not to be crowded too
closely by the other in the event that
he found it necessary to throw to a
base right after receiving the ball.
MOW, if, In addition to taking up a
** position In the box which will
crowd the' catcher after the latter has
received the bail, the batter raises hls
bat and swings it out more or less to
ward the plate as the ball approaches
no one can object to that mere act
either; for that Is what every batter
must do whenever he swipes at the
ball. In case, though, he decides not
to swing his bat through at the ball it
remains, of course, more or less sus
pended out in the air for an instant or
two after the ball has passed, and In
this position It may very seriously in
terfere with the force or accuracy of
the catcher’s throw.
But this thing; of making a fake
swing at the ball can be overdone. The '
batter may extend hls bat back to
ward the catcher such an unreason
able distance as to poke it right in the
latter’s face or Jostle his mask. The
question of whether he intentionally
hampered the catcher is one strictly
for the umpire to decide under all the
circumstances of the case.
Sometimes, perhaps, an umpire la
misled by the fact that the batter
proves himself a very good actor.
Generally, I would say, an umpire will
form hls opinion of whether a batter
purposely put hls bat In the way of
the catcher’s throw from noting
whether the batter turns around and
looks to see exactly where the catcher
Is at the instant of thrusting out the
bat. Of course, the catcher is not*
obliged to stand close to the plate or
batter so that the latter will be able
to interfere with him. As a fact good
catchers will very quickly catch on
when a “block and f»teal” play Is on.
Under such circumstances the
catcher should Jump away from the
plate and the batter as he receives
the ball, and if he will do this the bat
ter will find It difficult to bother him
without violating rules. So If the
batter keeps his face and eyes turned
out to the diamond an umpire will
argue that he made no effort to defi
nitely locate the catcher, and there
fore he could not have intended to In
terfere with the latter’s throw.
