Street Urges Legalization of Spitball
Gabby Street, manager of the St. Louis Browns, urged legalizing the spitball to ease arm strain among major league pitchers. He warned current overwork and new-ball conditions cause sore arms, naming Hubbell, Grove, Mungo, among others, and blamed pressure rather than working habits. He argued the spitter would relieve stress and help pitchers manage the workload.
