[from an interview of Jimmy Williams] “The attempt to change back to four strikes was a failure,” said Mr. Williams. “There was but one club in the league that voted in favor of doing so, and the joint committee, except myself, was unanimously against such a move. So it’s three strikes this season. Well, I don’t know as Cleveland will get any the worst of it. We have some very swift pitchers and it will help those sort of men.
