Text | [from an interview of Horace Phillips regarding Fred Morris] Under the old rules he was the greatest pitcher in the country. His work with Carroll was something phenomenal. He delivered the ball from any portion of the box and did it so quickly and in such rapid succession that a batsman who had a fashion of hammering the plate had no chance to get ready before the sphere had passed him. But he is not so effective under the new rules and I tell you they hurt lots of them. |
