t
BRESSLER'S FAULT FIXED
by CHANDLER D. RIC1ITER
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., March 17.
The warm weather returned today, and
Muck's pltchcra started tmzzlnf? tho ball
throuBh In grand ntylo. There wan moro
ntpper In tlio camp than any day since
tho practlco started, Manager Mack has
Dromlsed tho pitchers who work out best
today tho privilege of starting on t: o
dsvolopmcnt of their curve ball tomor
row. In most training camps the start
ing; tlmo for curvo-ball pitching 1b optional
and tho manngcre leave It entirely to tho
Judgment of the hurler, but Mack Issued
orders before tho Initial practlco that ho
did not want any of the boys to try a
curvo ball Until ho said tho word.
During tho early morning work-out,
jfuck gavo an excellent Illustration of the
closo attention ho payB to tho smallest
detail, which has In roallty been the- sccrot
of his success in developing youngsters,
Mid which also may provo tho means of
Assuring tho return of Itubo Brcsslcr to
his 10H form.
The closo attention Mack has been
paying to Dressier has been commented
upon before. This morning was no excep
tion, and Connlo discovered what ho be
lieves was tho causo of Dresslcf'a wlld
ncss last year. Dressier wns In tho act
of delivering a ball when Mack Bhoutod
to him to hold his position. Tho south
paw stopped Bhort, nnd Connlo, who was
planning silgiuiy in irurn. ui mm mm iu
his left, noticed that Dressier had his oyca
on the ground Instead of upon tho catcher.
He told Drcsster to contlnuo pitching nnd
to try to get tho ball over tho plate.
Tho Dubo pitched six balls nnd each
tlmo dropped his eyes to watch his Btcp.
Taking his eyes from tho plato momen
tarily caused him to get but a flash as ho
glanced up In tho midst of his wind-up,
and tho ball shot high becauso Dressier
was throwing his head up suddenly.
Mack then told Dressier whnt ho was
doing. Dressier pitched, for 10 full min
utes before ho could forget his feet. Final
ly when ho did keep his eyo on tho plate,
his control was perfect. Aa ho walked
over to tho bench to talk with Ira Thomas
Mack was all smiles nnd declared that
this was tho real causo of Ilrcsslur'H fail
ure. Ho said ho had watched. tne lect
which Dressier claimed would not behave
properly, but that ho passed that theory
up altogether.
Mack nlso said ho know thcro was
something clso wrong, nnd that Is why
he had been paying ho much attention to
the Rube. It remains to bo Boon whether
Brcsslor regains his control and pitches
the wonderful brand of ball ho Bhowod
In 1914. Connlo nnd Thomas declare ho
will.
Tom Sheehan's arm Is In good shape
again, whlto Morrlssctto la rapidly round
ing Into form. Jack Nabors and "Ml"
Crowcll continue to burn the ball up to tho
plato with no sign of lameness, but
"Chief" Myers, generally looked upon ns
the best bet of the young pltohors, la still
nursing a lama arm. Yesterday's work out
harmed Myers Instead of doing him good
and It Is now doubtful If ho will be right
before tho opontug of the season.
Of tho veterans. Bush and Dressier
appear to bo In splendid shape, but
Wycltoff has shown notbjng; dilt0- Tho
other pitchers aro more or less troubled
with soro arms or aro afraid to cut loose.
Offhand, we would say that Nabors will
be working hla curvo ball Ilrbt, with Crow
ell and Shcchnn a closo second. Indica
tions aro that this trio, with Hush nnd
Dressier, will be tho Mack mainstays In
the series with Boston and Brooklyn.
