The changing of the rules governing the pitcher's delivery in both League and American Association has improved base-running to a great degree. The pitcher can not now keep a runner hugging first base like he could last season, and unless he is supported by a first-class catcher who is able to throw accurately and swiftly to second, he is at a great disadvantage.
