Says:
KKVF.KK rUXMCAl'
Major league iiltchcra fm
carced that the baseball In dm (his
year has been slowed., down con
siderable. '
It such Is the rasr and It appear
to-be true, then the poor start of
th Philadelphia AlhlMIrs Is partly
explained.
The. Athletics of last year played
a cut and slash vtue. A club,
boasting many free swinging hit
ters. It didn't pay much attention
to the get-a-run-at-a-tlmo plan.
No doubt a lot of fly balls that
would have, cleared the various
fences or struck tha concrete walls
last season are Just plain outs this
year.
That hurl.
The new ball may fore a change
In stylo In a number of major tra
gus clubs, the free swinging ag
gregations In particular.
