As on wutrliffl Conn in Mack methodically diroctfntr hlfl ball club from the bench, hn would novor suppoHo the tall louder of the Athlotlcfl beikived there yva suclj a thliicr as a Jinx. Yot only recently, Connie, by de cldltnf that "Lefty" Grove should never again bo used or the opening pitcher 1n a three, or four-game swrteH, proved ho did. And thereby hanga a very Inter esting tale of how superstition often causes smart basfball men to suffer an entire change or opinion. pAm or piiANti When a ball club ha a big de fensive threat like Grove or an of fensive menace like Ilabo Huth, the manager of the club has two lines of action. One U to hurl your best bet at the opposition, get 'em ".froggy' and then try our best to (keep them In that condition. The other to keep him in reserve. Landing an early knockout was Muck's original Intention In uttlng Orovo to open every serins. With (he star soulhptiw at the top of his game, the odds arc always in favor of his turning In a victory. Winning the flint ball game in any fterles 1m the edge. It puts thu opposition on the defense. That ts all very well If form holds good ntid your best b-t cornea through. If he falls, It Is differ ent. You bav uf!d your nee and lost. Tlwtt remove the big threat and adds to tht. confidence of the rival club, TIIKKR TOroiI TILTS All season Drove has pitched Sfiimilloniil ball for the Athletics, Yrt his pitching percentage would m-vet convey that Impression to the fun who hud only the figures to guide him! Orovo lias done little better than break even, yet with the possible exception of, say, two hall game, (evi-ry one of bis plrchlng effortM I was deserving of victory. Hiine the opening of the seuson Grove hus been u-U as the start ing; pitcher In practically every sc ries. ( When Die opposing Cum Ih-uL Grove, which it did iuitc of ten. It breathed a sigh .of relief, fig uring him out of the way for the rest of the series. The tough break euffered by Grove on the club's recent road trip caused Manager Muck to decided 'shift in plans was necessary to re j move the jinx. I In three games, ngalnst Tloston. Chicago and Cleveland, the hud. one going 11 Innings, Orovo aJIow jed a total of only four runs, yet suffered throe defeats. . ' MAY WORK RETTFJt That was too much for the us ually complacent Mr. Mack. A change of program was derided upon. Instead of starting a series Grove was named as the selection for the third or fourth, frame. In addition to keeping the big threat in the background, it en abled Manager Muck to use him late In the, first two ganYcs to hold a slight loud. Orove. who has a free; easy mo tion, doesn't think anything of working a couple of innings as a plnnb pitcher. As a ntattcr of fact, it Is not at all tin usual for him to warm up a bit each duy. CeriaUj pitchers rest a day, or two after taking their regular turn but Grove Is not that sort. (Strong and willing, this feature of Ids makeup! will permit bis turn In pinch roles without any way lnullug bbt work In his regular start. It. will be Interesting to watch how Uin new program, (hat has b'-en outlined for the pitching son satlon of 1926 turns out.
