Great Pitchers
Speedy Workers,
Says John Tener
NEW YORK, Sept. 14.—John K.
Tener, president of the National
league, is one man who doesn’t under
stand why every young pitcher who
goes into the big leagues is admon
ished, even after he becomes a veter
an: “Take your time.”
“The best of the pitchers, men who
have made baseball history, did not
do it,” Tener said today, “and if there'
is anything in following an effective
man’s method to gain the same sort
of effectiveness, the young pitcher is
gaining nothing by taking his time.”
Tener pointed out that when a
pitcher begins to grow nervous, when
the opposition begins to tickle the ball
for base hits, the fans begin to roar:
“Take your time!”
“And it was not done by any of the
famous pitchers,” he said.
By way of proving his contention
Tener picked out Radbourne, McGin
nity, Mathewson, Rusie, Rucker, Min
er, Brown, and Alexander, present
day marvel.
“They all worked fast,” he said.
“Mathewson was one of the fastest
workers I ever saw, and McGinnity,
Radbourne and Rusie were all speedy
workers. Alexander, who holds a
world record for shutout victories in
one season, is a fast worker.
“Perhaps, if the fans were aware
of these facts they might cry out for
the pitcher to speed up when the
game went wrong."
Tener was quite a marvel as a pitch
cher himself back in the days when
baseball was jqst beginning to make
its popularity reach a high spot. So
he was asked how he worked.
“Well,” he replied, “I wasn’t a spee
dy pitcher, but I noticed that I always
worked better when I worked fast.”
Tener made no attempt to give a
reason for the effectiveness of the
pitcher who worked fast, but he ad
mitted that a great many slow work
ing pitchers, probably, are just as ef
fective as the men who fire rapidly
from the mound.
“I never took the trouble to notice
any slow pitching men and study
their effectiveness as a class,” he said.
“However, I have noticed that a great
many of those who took their time on
the mound didn’t last a long time in
the big show. I guess their arms get
colder than if they worked with some
“pep.”
So,, if Tener’s judgment is worth
rookie pitcher to study effectiveness
while working at a fast pace. Any
way, he will have the consolation of
knowing that some of the game’s
greatest workers were men who used
rapid fire tactics in putting the ball up
to the batter.
Heinie Zimmerman, who recently
was traded to the New York Giants
by the Cubs, declares he is supremely
happy in his new surroundings. Hei
nie is a resident of New York and
probably would rather play at the Po
lo grounds, where he is idolized to a
certain extent by Bronx fans.
Mike Mowery, who was uncondition
ally released by the Pirates, and then
was taken up by the Dodgers, is play
ing the best baseball of his career.
He is fielding like a demon and his
hitting has been at the most oppor
tune moments.
