| Text | [from Chadwick's column] Here is a specimen of the new style of coaching which the South End grounds spectators tolerate because it is indulged in by Boston Club players, whereas when it was confined to Association clubs they pitched into it as “rowdy ball playing.” I take the following from the Boston Herald: “The feature of the game yesterday above and beyond all others was the loud, bullying, bulldozing coaching of both side, particularly that of Long's on the part of the Boston Club, who out-Kellied Kelly and out-Longed Long in the eal and persistency with which he gave his orders and made himself generally known to the public. “Get er long thar. “Hustle yerself lively. “Don't stick tew the base. “Git a move enter yerself. “What yer glued thar fur? “Only one out—and git along. “Look-a-there, and see what I told you. Git now. “Holy Moses, go. “Git back to yer base, ye lunkhead. “Dig up the dust and fly. “Don't stick there like death to a dead nigger, but get up and go! “Make a bee line fur home, and don't let the beans parboil under her feet! “Do yer think yer on vacation, that yer stand there when so many good chances are going by? “Those were the noises that rent the air.” Tucker bellowed like a bull as of old and this was done to worry the pitcher; not to aid baserunning, for it does not do it even a little bit. |
