This is the advice handed out by Tom Daly, once one of the greatest catchers that ever donned a mask, who now is coaching the young Yan kee pitchers. Daly's advice is for tha sand-lot youngster who has the ambi tion to become a big league twirler some day. "The pitcher who can get the first two halls over the plate usually has the whlphand," declared Daly. "Very few batters offer at the first ball, and if it happens to be a strike they hardly ever offer at the second. If the pitcher can shoot two straight over the plate, it’s pretty much of a cinch that they will be palled strikes and the batter will be in a hole. “You will find that the best pitch er? of the present day are men who never waste the first two balls. Ma thewson, Johnson. Walsh, Bender, Wood and the other stars always try to get the first two balls over the plate or mighty near the corners, and that's why they have been so success ful. If they don't strike out their man it's seldom that the man on whom they get two strikes on the first two balls will do much damage as the batter is rather nervous and knows he has only one chance left. Quite often, in his nervousness, he will swing at the third ball, whether it is good or bad. for fear that it will be called one. and if he doesn't miss lie seldom gets a drive that will do much damage. “Of course, a pitcher takes a chance that by putting the first two ball* over that the batter will swing at it But it is rarely that a batter swings at the first ball, unless the manager of the opposing team his figured out that line of attack—something that happens infrequently.
