Babe Ruth of Boston and Ferdie
Schupp of New York Were Most
Effective Pitchers in Their Re.
spective Leagues.
Rube Ruth of the Red Sox nnd Fit
die Schupp of the Giants were the
most effective pitchers in their re
spective leajxues during the pnst sea
son, nnd both of them are left-huntlers.
This Is one of the things that marks
the development of baseball.
In the early days of the same a
southpaw was n rare nrtlele. The
National league was organized In
lSTfl, nnd during its first ten years of
existence there were, so far as we
know. Just about seven good left-handers
in fast company. These were Rich
mond, Raldwln. Shaw, Morris, Casey,
Ramsey and Cushman.
Today tbere are ten times that many
jiort-siders n the reserve lists of the
two big leagues. No pitching staff is
considered complete without at least
a couple of good ones. Yet, in 40
years of organized baseball it Is prob
able that not over fifty southpaws real
ly have made good.
It Is easy to look back and recall
most of the better ones since those
early days. It Is a short list: Rreiten-

stein. Esper. Clausen. McCill. White,
Alt rock, Klobedanx, Ilannehiil, Lei f eld,
Pfelster, Waddelt, tVlltse and. of
course, that ageless veteran. Eddie
Plank. Half of this number were only
ordinary pitchers.
Three or four of them at most be
long in a class with such great right
handers as Keefe. Radbourne. Clark
son. Carruthers, Ging. Ehret. Meekln,
Young. Rusie, Nichols. McGinnlty,
Overall, Donovan, Mullln, Walsh,
Wood. Adams, Coombs, Bender, Math
ewson, Johnson and Alexander. Wad
dell belongs in this class and so does
Wlltse. one of the greatest of south
paws and a pitcher who never was
given the general recognition he de
served. In the eight years previous to last
season only twice did a left-hander
top one of the big leagues In the rec
ords of the pitchers. In 1908 the lead
ers were Reulbach and Walsh ; In 1909
they were Camnitz and Mullln, and in
1910 they were Cole and Bender. Mar
quard was the most effective twlrler
in the National league in 1911. but
Covington led Johnson's organization.
Rendrix and Wood were In front in
1912. Mathewson and Johnson In 1913.
In 1914 Leonard was first In the Amer
ican league and Doak in the National.
Alexander and Wood were the leaders
In 1915, Marquard and Leonard, there
fore, were the only southpaws to lead
their leagues In a decade, but things
appear to be looking up for the-clan.
Beside Ruth and Schiipp, the big
league now have such left-handers as
"Old Man" I'lank, Marquard. Leonard,
Rliey. Sallee, Benton. Covelekl, Cul
lop. Nehf, Vaughn, Smith. Tyler, Mog
rldge, Koob, Harper, Russell and Staler.
HUGGINS FEELS QUITE SAFE
Manager of St. Louis Cardinals Confi
dent He Has Strong Corpa of
Catchers Snyder Leads.
Manager Miller Hoggins of the 8t
Louis Cardinals feels pretty safe re
garding his catching department
Frank Snyder seems set for a big come
back, while Jack Roche, recalled from
Portland, seems to have been cured
of the lame arm that troubled him for
several years. These two will give
Hoggins a chance to use Mike Gonzales
regularly on first base, with the recruit
Williams la reserve. Hoggins plans
to carry an entire second string Infield
this year.
