[Boston vs. Mutual 5/8/1872] ...the Mutes could not for the life of them punish , his well disguised chance of pace, and the judgment he uses in studying his men, giving him command of the situation. Then, too, he had such a reliable man [McVey] behind the bat that he felt free to devote himself entirely to his work without regard to the catcher, an important element of success with any pitcher, for if he has to look out and pitch especially for the catcher, he necessarily loses much of his power for playing strategic points.
