...Martin, of the Eckford nine, the king of medium paced pitchers, and perhaps the shrewdest manipulator of the ball who occupies the position. Martin’s forte is pitching “dropping” balls, and the command of the ball which he possesses; the peculiar curve with which he tosses it to the bat is fatal to every unskilled batsman, provided he has any good support in the field.
