Playing the Field ———With Billy Evan* GREAT managerial asset A these days is a relief pitcher who has the stuff and the courage to step into a tough spot and deliver in a majority of the cases. / Fred Marberry was such a pitcher in 1924-25, when Stanley Harris
piloted the Washington club to two pennants and ode world series title. Using Marberry in rescue roles only, Harris was able to fceep his 'regular pitching staff intact and give his veterans the proper amount of rest' for them to retain their effectiveness. This year, Wiley Moore is playing the same role for Miller Huggins
Evans
and the Yankees. In his first year as a big leaguer, the all important role of chief relief pitcher of a championship team, has fallen on his shoulders. Moore, a glutton for work, by being able to pitch practically every day for a few innings, if necessary, has enabled Huggins to work his regulars in order and never sap their vitality by calling on them for pinch pitching efforts. If the Yankees win the American League pennant, no pitcher will have contributed more to such a victory than Wiley Moore. EN discussing pitching with Connie Mack, recently, he made the following interesting ooservationsu ; ,; New York, ftured to get just Ordinary pitching from its staff of veterans, has had the best twirling in the American League. “The answer to the fine work of the old timers on the Yankees staff is Wiley Moore. His ability to stop the opposition in the pinches has made it possible for Huggins to juggle his regulars to the best possible advantage. “Where other managers have been compelled to call upon their regulars at times, thereby breaking tip the regular routine, Huggins has always had Moore at his beckon. “Unlike mist relief pitchers, Moore has been very successful as a starter. In a recent six-game series that we played with New York, the Athletics took the first three games, handing a good pasting to most of the veteran Yankee pitchers. We seemed to have New York on the run. “Huggins threw Moore into the breach as the starting pitcher. * He stopped us to a whisper and New York proceeded to take the next three games for an even break on the series.” ■ .t...,- r A pitcher like Marberry or Moore is not only a producer of victories but he adds much to the peace of mind of a manager. For references, I refer you to Stanley Harris or Miller Huggins.

By United Press WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS Saratoga, N. Y., July 19.—As the zero hour draws near for the Dempsey-Sharkey fight. Jack Dempsey today was pronounced “ready to go right now” by Leo Flynn, his manager. Flynn carefully denied that Dempsey was suffering from injury or serious soreness either to his hands or arms and explained the appearance of the champion for his workout Monday with heavy bandages on his hands and arms, as merely a precautionary measure. But boxing critics had their curiosity aroused because the bandaging was done, although Dempsey’s program merely involved some rope skipping, shadow boxing and punching the bag—largely the light bag. Leo Flynn said applications and bandages had been used nightly on Dempsey's elbows and wrists, but he added: “I have been handling a lot of fighters and I always have used the same method to keep their muscles in shape.”
