SOUTHPAW BATTERS ARE NOW ON

NEW YORK, !•';>. n.
batters arc* increasing on: of ail pro

the National I!a *ball Lea,- u For
the-rmore, th bigg and mos bril
liant drawing cards of tls • gam:* u
•itay are those who perform sensa
tionally with the slick rath r than
in the pitchers' bar:.
"Just glance at the facts ami
figures,” aid Hey ller, “and you w II
find that the most prominent bate
linen of today arc ports!.lo-s with
vary few exceptions. Of com ■ Roc
ers Hornsby i the big cx t ion
Reasons Advanced
“It lis a debatable question why
we have had this tendency t 1 loft
band batters. Many believe the left
hander is generally hotter b.causi
ha is nearer first ba.~, an 1 th re
fore should got there more quickly
Then some folks add that .1 let,
hander always has been able t 1 bn::'
better than a right-linn I hatter.
Records will show tha: more left
handers bunt sure >.-1 ally year in and
year out than da right-handers.
“Now. same hnv * said that the
National League 1 mid be called th
school of li ght hand hatters, and th
American Lea gn ■ the -m ho 1 of th
left-hander. This theory started u\e.
■She long .rivalry that ex:- d b : wv
Wagner, a right-hand batter, and Tv
Cobb, who as we all know, stand -
on the opposite side of tin plat
when 'he swings. In my opinion
Wagner was the groat 1 -t. right-hand
er of them all, although many fans
believe Pop Anson the greatest.
Proud of Aeputation
“I am proud of the reputation
that has bea.i given the National
| Lt igue for its gr ,u rgiu-iur. 1 hil
tc s, but nevertheless that league is
i today recognizing that left Ivan tier a
are da . ’.oi big «fa>ier than right*
handers.
"If w > follow the list of National
; I. 'ago ■ bat; rs after Hornsby, who
tops them nil. wo find that many ol
. sir prominent batters are lef hand
trs, and again it makes me doubt
at wo are developing left-hand
! pitchers in proper: ion.”
