President Hedges Tells How
Catchers Can Help Pitchers.
RELIEVE HIM OF MUCH WORRY
By Signaling For Proper Curves,
Watching Bnse Runners, Etc., the
"Hoady" Catcher Leaves Pitcher
Free to Attend to His Chief Work.
" 'Tis a grout thing to have a catcher
with n head 011 him," iiuoth Itobert
Lee Hedges of the St. Louis Ameri
cans reivutlv. "It leaves the busy
pitcher free to pay attentlou to his
grips on the ball and takes the worry
of deciding what kind of ball he
shall pitch, or what the base runners
are doing. or how the field Is playiug,
or bow many are out, oft his mind,
and all he has to do Is to get lu there
and pitch.
"T'.ie pitcher is a busy fellow during
a game. He Is in every play? lu fact,
start i every play. He must throw a va
riety of tine shoots, curves, slows, ups,
downs and spit balls during the after
noon. To do this properly he must use
the very nicest adjustment of the lingers
and the very acutest of coutrol. The
better his control the lietter his pitch
ing.
"Now. if a gcutleiuuu has, lu addi
tion to pitching, to decide for himself
what sort of :t ball he shall pitcli. and
how many of the other geutletueu are
out, and just what (he geutleuiau at
the stick enn hit anil what he cannot
hit. aud u hat the gentlemen on base
are doing and are likely to do, und
how his field N located, aud give the
signals, you cau very easily appreciate
hov\ very much the difficulties of his
position are enhanced, but let him
have nothing to do but throw the ball
a good catcher signals for. and how
the burden Is lightened."
"This ability to think for pitchers is
what makes O'Connor of our staff such
a good catcher. The pitchers have con
fidence la him. When he Is receiving
they pay no attention to auything but
?BS3!DEiT R. I.. 1IE1?.ES, ST. LOtllU
AMERICANS.
:o hl:n. He tells them what klud of
tall to throw, aud they throw It with
the urinost confidence. They know lie
knows all about It aud ask no ques
tions
"H?; watches the bags for theni.
They do not need to bother about run
ners. If he sees a cbauce, they g<-t a
signal, and all they hare to do Is to
turn and throw. If they are fielding
a bull, he tells them where the play is.
In a word, all a pitcher need do when
O'Connor Is catching Is pitch.
"Take, upon the other hand, a young
man like Stepheus? good, but luexperl
enced. The old pitchers kuow he does
not know the game or the batters or
runners as well as they do. Conse
quently they assume to do the think
ing. and their actual performance Is
depreciated by the extra effort.
"This Is why, though Stephens and
Spencer have much better arms than
O'Connor, the team goes better with
the old fellow In the game."
U Tommy Burns In Wrong?
Is Tommy Burns ostracized from
ring company?
"I'll not fight Burns under any con
sideration. He is a fakir." ? Bill
Squires.
"If I enter the ring Tommy Burns Is
the last man I'll meet. I can't stand
for hU tactics."? Jim Jeffries.
"Burns can never expect to fight me
again. The public won't stand for
him."? Jack ("Twin") Sullivan.
As to Squires, he may change his
mind by the time bis match with Burns
comes round.
Jeffries, Squires and Sullivan have
given him the cold shoulder. Clubs on
the coast refuse to card him.
The Detrolter may decide to retire.
He U said to be worth from $30,000 to
$50,000. Most of this money Is In
vested In coast real estate. It Is said.
Burns doesn'^flght because he likes
It He fights because there Is money
In It, and for no other reason.
