SOUTHPAW BATTERS ARE NOW ON
INCREASE IN MAJOR B. B. LEAGUES
NEW YORK. F?b. 15. 1. ,'t-han !
batters are faereasing out of all pro
portion a.s compare :l with the in
crease of left-hand pitch ora. accor I
ling to Prcvddent John lleyd'.er ol
the National Baseball l.eagtie. Fur
thernmre, the biggest and most bril
liant drawing cards of the game i >
■day tire those who .perform serisa
Liomallv w'.ih the stick rather than
in the pitchers' box.
"Just, glance at the facts and
figures," - i) I Heydler, “and you will
find that the most prominent bus
men of today are portsiders with
very few exceptions. Of course R ig
era Hornsby ,U the big exception.
Reasons Advanced
"It iis a debatable question why
we have haul this :. •ndency to left
hand batters. Many believe the left
hander is generally better became
he is nearer first ba.- ■ and :it
fore should get there more quickly.
Then some folks add that \ left
hander always has been abb* l i bun;
better than a right-hand batter.
Records wall show tin. more 1. . -
handers bunt successfully year in and
year out than do right-handers.
“Now. some 'have s I that tic
National Iveagtie could lie called the
school of alight hand batters, and ti.
American League the school . th ■
left-hander. Thi - tli ,<ry started ovc.
the long .rivalry tbit **x - :ed be: we
Wagner, a right-hand batter, and Tv
Cobb, who ais we all know, rtan.ls
on the opposite side of tli > plate
wiiea 'he swings. In my opinion,
Wagner was th: g. cate.-: righ. a ic i
er of them all, ...ithough many fans
believe Rip Anson the greatest.
Proud of Aeputation
"I am proud of th? imputation
that has beta given the National
I I. tg.io for its great r ght-haiul hit
i:;s, 'but nevertheless that league 1s
today r, cognizing that I ft hand, rs
are developing faster than right
it.and era.
“If we follow tile fist of N tlionai
; League batters after Hornsb; . who
tops them all. we find that ma ty of
jour prominent batters are left-hand
ers. and again it make.-; me doubt
that wo are developing left-hand
pitchers in proportion."
