[from Chadwick's column] Pitching for a strike-out record is easy work, requiring simply intimidating speed and but little skill when facing a majority of batsmen. But pitching for catches requires strategic skill of no small degree, and it gives lively work for the fielders, while pitching for strike-outs yields nothing but the wearisome pitchers' games. Rhines and Caruthers excel in pitching for catches.
