Heydler May Be Right On Lively Ball Cause
National League president John Heydler advocates the livelier ball as the reason for rising slugging and higher batting averages this season. He notes umpires have wide discretion under new rules, allowing more balls into play, with Ty Cobb and the Detroit Tigers challenging the Yankees and Indians for the lead. The Crackers sit in the first division as Mobile tops Birmingham and Nashville falls to fourth, with Markle Sugas and Redgood contributing to eight wins in ten starts for Charlie Frank’s club.
