Text | [Eclipse vs. Baltimore 7/18/1882] During the game, when the Baltimore’s group of heavy left-handed hitters, Whiting, Householder and Pearce, were coming to the bat, Sullivan [sic: should be “Mullane” and is correct in the box score] the Louisville’s pitch, changed his delivery from right hand to left, and puzzled the batters considerably. This was a novelty in pitching, and excited much interest. He was not, however, able to keep the left-handed delivery up for any length of time, but it was very effective while it lasted. |
