HOW TO PLAY THE
OUTFIELD.
By TRIS SPEAKER.
(Of Cleveland Indiana.)
(Copyright, 1921, by King Features Syndi
cate, Inc.) t
The youngster who aspires to be
come an outfielder, must, first of
all:
1. Learn to catch the ball in the
proper and the easiest and surest
way.
2. Learn to be in such nosition
when making a catch that he can
make a throw to any needed base
without whirling around.
o. Learn to throw perfectly from
all angles, from all distances and to
all bases.
4. Learn to make catches while
running backward for the ball.
1 he -best way of catching the ball
is with the hands cupped. That's
the surest and usually the most nat
ural fashisn. It may be a little
fancier to make the "V" shaped
catch at the chest but it's not as
sure. And you must be sure about
making the catch,
Of course, there -are times when
the ball comes at you in such a
way that you can't make a "cun"
catch. Then catch it in any way
that you can. But whenever pos
sible, take the ball in the cup of
your hands.
Try One-Handed Catches.
After you have learned thorough
lyhow to make catches with both
hands, try making one-handed
catches. Practice that until vou
feel you are absolutely proficient
in it. But, after you have learned
it, never try to make a one-handed
catch in any game unless it is ut
terly impossible for you to use both
hands in receiving the ball.
Remember, the one-handed catch
is to be made only in an absolute
emergency.
Practice faithfully the trick of fac
ing the infield and especially the
base where a pjay is likely to be
made whenever "you make a catch.
With conscientious effort you not
only can- do this when making ord
inary catches but, in time, you'll
learn the trick of shifting around
when making a running backward
catch so that you can make the
throw without lost motion pr the
Joss of time.
Speed is of vital necessity, in all
your actions. . Very often the
barest fraction of a second deter
mines whether an enemy runner is
safe or is a putout victim.
Bear this in mind at all times?
When one play is completed and
another is about to start, get the
battle action fixed absolutely in your
mind. Remember .how many run
ners are on the bases and on what
bases they are resting. Anticipate
what they're likely to do if a ball
is hit to you. Then, if the ball is
hit out your way, you'll know just
what to do with it when you get it.
So, never lose sight of the ball.
Keep Eyes on Ball.
Never take your eyes off of that
infield until the side if retired. How
do you know that your pitcher, or
your catcher isn't going to try to
catch a man napping off the bases?
And how do you know that the
throw isn't going to be wild and
that the ball won't roll out your
way- ,, ,
So, keep your eye on the ball
always." A man who can make one mirac
ulous catch after another never will
merit a job inthe outfield if he isn't
a fast and accurate thrower. The
only way you can become one is by
constant practice. Make throws to
atl bags- in your practice sessions.
Make them from all distances; make
them standing still, make them
while running forward, make them
while completing a backward run
ning catch.
Teg for every base; keep on peg
ging; practice throwing until you
reach a point so that you can shoot
the hall with rifle bullet speed to
tinv nase, or io inu pidic.
are per cent penect ju
thowing ability, keep right on with
your pegging practice so you'll main
tain 100 per cent perfection.
Jt isn't reaching greatness that
counts most in base ball; maintain
ing that greatness is the thing.
Shoe string catches are about the
most difficult of all. Certainly they
are the most dangerous. A shoe
string catch may save a run may
even save the game. But if you
miss the catch you may lose the
game, for the ball is going to roll
H the drive that would
been an ordinary single, if y
had taken it on the first bound, m
Ko
may
net the batter two or three bases.
You can reach a certain perfection
in shoestring catching by practice,
practice and more practice But
even when nearly perfect dont try
for a shoeshtringer unless you ar?
practically sure you can make it.
Play Safe.
Of mtirsp. circumstances alter
cases. If a put out is the only thing
that will save the game, try tor the
shoestring. You are warranted m
gambling then. But if holding the
drive to a single saves the game,
whereas missing and permitting the
batter to get two or three bases
loses it, play safe by taking the ball
on a bound.
I have been credited with ongin
atinir the Dresent day practice of
outfielders playing in much closer'
to the infield than was the custom
is the other days. My reason for
playing so close to the bases was
because in my earliest days I
noticed that many of the opposition
batsmen were hitting safely just
back of the bags.
So I moved in closer and closer
to the infield. As I did so, I began
trapping drives that formerly went
for hits. My earliest manager, al
though glad to note that I was get
ting such potential safeties, was
worried for fear that the other fel
Itjws would begin driving the ball
Over my head.
But I pointed out that it was the
general custom to give ordinary
batsmen credit for driving the ball
tarther than they really could drive
it. I showed that for every ball hit
near to the fences, a dozen balls
' p

Tris Speaker.
would drop into the "Texas
League" territory on the diamond.
That convinced him that by playing
in close, I was of greater value on
defense than if I played far out.
Play Close to Bag.
So my advice is play close to the
bag in your earliest practice. Have
a teammate bat fungoes far . over
your head. Chase after them. That
gives you practice in making run
ning backward catcne i oti can t
iearn the trick in a week or a month.
But practice makes perfect in all
things and certainly does it make
perfect in base ball. .
Many a youngster, getting a Dig
league trial, has failed because he
never practiced playing in close to
the bag. He usually plays far be
cause that's where he played on the
sand lots, the college diamonds or
the bushes. ' itie big league leader
orders him to play in closer so as to
trap Texas leaguers. The kid tries
it the ball is bit over his head and
it gets away. Never having trained
in making backward running catches,
he can t make good.
Learn Your Batters.
The only way to learn how to
make backward running catches and,
at the same time, skill of Texas
league pops back of the infield, is by
playing close to the bag. Don t play
too close, lour speed and later
on your ability to make backward
running catches will determine how
close you can play to the bag. lhe
faster you are,' the nearer yon can
play because sped will get you back
ward in time to overtake the balls
that are hit over your head.
You must - learn your batters;
learn the hitting peculiarities of
each. And you must play for then!
accordingly. But that's something
that cant be taught to vou; you
must' learn it yourself.
Always remember that practice
makes perfect. And while -you are
practising, don t get discouraged and
never lose faith in yourself.

DO YOU KNOW
Tha there are now 200,000 rein
deer in Alaska.
That; 19,094 wild animals were
lulled, m India last year.
That John D. Clay of Houston,
Tex., shot at more clay targets
in 1920- than any other shooter. ,
Will Babe Ruth
home run mark
pass
this
the "5
coming
season.''
!?
When the King of Swatters
whanged out 54 homers last year,
some of the wise birds considered
it the limit, while others said he
would do better in 1921.
Babe says he is going to do bet
ter this season, but lies not men
tioning numbers.
According to reports from the
south, the way he's clouting the
apple in the Yankee's trainfhg
camp, it seems almost sure he will
shatter his 1920 mark.
The Bambino never has been an
early starter. In 1919, when he
made his first mark, he did not get
under way until April 23, while
last season he wasted more than a
good month of games before get
ting started.
Ruth is overweight and some of
the sharps' have used this as food
for their arguments, declaring that
he would not round into condition
so that he would be able to touch
his last season's record.'
. Weight doesn't seem to be trou
bling the husky Ruth, as he has
been knocking the ball to all parts
of the southern United States.
Ruth says he is all cranked up
and ready to crack out a homer in
the opening game of the season
next Wednesday.
The bowler who fails to strike
has to do what an autoist with a
blowout does: Make a spare do.
Jack Lewis, manager of Andy ,
Schmader, Louisville, Neb., heavy
weight fighter, has received sev
eral offers from promoters
throughout this part o the coun
try who are anxious to match the
Nebraskan with some of the top
notchers of the heavyweight di
vision. While Schmader no doubt
could hold his own with Walker,
- Farmer Lodge, Gunboat Smith,
Tony Melchior, Bob Koper and
other heavies of this class, his
manager is content to . let him
spend a few weeks at his home
preparing for ring encounters.
The Louisville battler looked
well in his short bout with Jack
Burke at the local auditorium a
couple of weeks ago, but three or
four weeks in hard training will
not hurt the former gob.
"Irish' Patsy Cline, New York
lightweight boxer, who is back in
ihc rinor after havinc an Ooeration
on his eyes, is scheduled to meet
Pinkey Mitchell in Milwaukee to
night. ,-
Cline is rapidly winning a place
among the lightweight contenders
for Benny Leonard's crown and
if the New York scrapper is in .
as good condition as he was before
he underwent an operation,, we will
soon be one of the leading light
weight fistic performers of the
country.
If you don't believe boxing is
a popular sport among Gotham
fans, just write Tex Rickard, well
known New York promoter, who
has a small army of clerks busy
figuring how much money Uncle
Sam is entitled to.
Rickard has remitted to the gov
ernment in national, state and muJ
nicipal taxes the sum of $288,-.'
007.56. This huge sum represents
a national figure of $172,391.38 on
all taxable attractions housed in

Not a bad season for Tex. eh?
