Description

(NYC: “We noticed that Pursell, in his efforts to pitch swiftly, sacrificed his regularity of delivery. Creighton’s success in pitching has induced many to imitate him under the supposition that his chief merit lays in his speed. This is a mistake, his fast pitching being only one element of his strength as a pitcher.”)
