Text | [Hartford vs. Chicago 7/13/1877] Larkin [pitcher] has picked up Nolan’s idea as his method apparently, and yesterday he devoted his time to pitching to the right of the plate, but at the right height, and then asking that strikes be called. His whole trick appeared to be in delivering the ball to one side of the plate by means of his curve. A glance at Harbridge’s [catcher] position would convince any one that Larkin had no intention of pitching over the stone. |
