Johnson Says Modern Baseball Lacks Science of Earlier Times
Walter Johnson, famed pitcher nicknamed the Big Train, argues modern baseball lacks the science of the past due to the lively ball. He notes more slugging, relief pitching, and less strategic play, recalling his 1908 trio of shutouts against the Yankees and his long Washington career. Johnson now runs a dairy farm in Western Maryland and reflects on his managerial attempts after 1927.
