Text | Harry Wright says in regard to the change in the pitching rules: “There will be more broken fingers and bruised hands, more passed balls and wild pitches, and the game will not be a s steady or as interesting. There will not be that chance for head work and variation in the pitcher’s delivery; there will be less batting and therefore more strike-outs, fewer men on bases, fewer chances for brilliant plays and less base running. I am of the opinion that a change will be made next season by which the pitcher will be compelled to keep the right foot on the ground.” St. |
