Baseline Jibes Are Duke Feature
Durham, NGC June 16 Connie Mack may have his cumbo down on baseline riding tactics but pupil of the good old days is booming them slong in college basebell. Jack Coombs introduced the art at Duke University where five boys signed with major league. A lad nicknamed the barker directs riding duties from the coaching box. When the hero of the opposition comes out swinging his bat the barker signals. Jones goes to bat and misses swing. The barker bleats again and the bat cracks. If the great Jones is a temperamental hero he may collapse spiritually. Visiting coaches admit riding has a profound effect on many college players. Mild protests have been registered privately but riding is treated as part of the game.
