M mrrW.l ON A HONEYMOON I WONT CEDENTS CURTIS, Blxteea . pinch hitters hored -into major league ball ffamea Wednesday aad sot one of thena bit safely. Hot one eve walked. We'd like to see .some figures m the effective ess of pinch hitters through out a season. In the world series last fall. 11 pinch hitters were used. Just one hit safely, Cramer of the Athletics In the last game He drove in the two runs the A's got in that game. One of the pinch hitters walked Naturally., it's the team that's be hind that uses pinch bitters, and It so happened that no pinch hit ter stepped op to the plate for the team that finally won the game. . Eleven pinch hitters saw serv ice fat the five-same world series .la 1929 and not one of them hit. In the 19SO series, mine pinch hitters were in there and two, Moore of the Athletics and Fisher of the Cardinals, hit safely bat neither figured in the ran making. Two walked, hot that didn't help either. So In the last three world ser ies, 32 pinch hitters produced three hits and two runs and help ed In scoring no victories. Natur ally, that s not much baseball to Judge by. Most every fan has seen a pinch hitter go up and boom out a hit that won a game, but these figures, if typical, indicate that It isn't often. O The pinch hitter is on the spot. He's cold; he hasn't been in the fight, hasn't trimmed off the raw edges of his nerves through action. He hasn't seen any pitching. The pitcher is sure to bear down on him. Of coarse in a world series, he is under still heavier pressure. That may account for the fact that in the last three world series, pinch hitters have batted .107. Most of the fellows taken out for pinch hitters have higher av erages than that But perhaps it doesn't spell anything in the mat ter of baseball strategy. When there's an almost infinitesimal chance to pull out a game, a pinch hitter who is ordinarily a good hitter, may be a better gamble 'A Living Now Showing "A WE BEEN IN fLL WUCrb OT- WEATrEtt,fAyTER jOfiEb.

Yes, that may be so in spite of the handicap the pinch hitter is up against.
