Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Play Baseball To become a good baseball player is the ambition of every boy at school, and the absence of any sound, practical advice has often resulted in spoiling young men, who, under different conditions, might have been developed into first-'class players. Many ama teur and young players jump at the conclusion that as they are able to throw, or catch a ball, or run fast, they are on the proper road to become first-class players, and that these attri butes constitute the groundwork of a baseball player.

Download or read book How to Play Second Base Classic Reprint written by John J. Evers and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Play Second Base While there are certain rules for playing second base that are fundamentally the same in all cases, it is rare to find two 'men who play the position exactly the same. In preparing this book How to Play Second Base, I have followed as closely as possible the method I have employed in the many years I have been in the National League. For some reason or other an erroneous impression was had Of second base for a long time - that it was a position that could be easily filled for years after a player started to go back. That may have been the case before the science of team work was de veloped to its present standard and before there was so much of what is termed inside baseball, which, after all, is nothing more than quick team work and quick headwork. My experience in play ing second base in the National League has taught me that to be successful in the position, one must be a hustler. It -is a case of hustle all the time, with your head, eyes, hands and feet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Baseball written by W. J. Clarke and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baseball: Individual Play in Detail, With Illustrations and Diagrams The present position of the game of baseball in the United States, the enthusiasm with which it is played, and the interest with which it is watched by the American people have made it very evident that it would be valuable both to players and spectators to have easily available a book formulating what has been found to be the best way of playing the game. Although it is a sport which is most widely followed, yet comparatively few players, and fewer spectators, really understand it thoroughly. The reason for this will be apparent when one realizes that the leaders of the game, with a knowledge gained through years of experience and careful study, have, for the most part, reserved this knowledge for those immediately under their control, while the average player and spectator must be content to play and watch the game as best he can. A brief review of the development of the game will help to bring out the facts that have to do with the writing of this book.
