Text | "BASE BALL. EXCELSIOR VS. PUTNAM.--...We have heard so much of late...about the pitching of Creighton...and its fatal effect upon those who bat against it, that we determined to judge of the matter for ourselves, and accordingly we were prepared to watch his movements pretty closely, in order to ascertain whether he did pitch fairly or not, and whether his pitching was a 'jerk,' 'an underhand throw,' or a 'fair square pitch,'...it was unquestioningly the latter..." |

Warning | |
Comment | The article concluded that Creighton's success was due not to speed but to delivering a ball that was rising as it reached the batter, not coming in straight. Edit with form to add a comment |
