Editor of Guide backs ruling of Charles C White
Several weeks of debate in baseball circles centered on a ruling by Charles B D White in the Couriers Lafe and Out column. White ruled that the second pitcher in a nine inning shutout should receive the win if he pitched six innings to the first pitcher’s three. Foster of Spalding’s Baseball Guide weighs in supporting White, saying there is no strict rule for awarding a pitcher the win. The piece notes two thirds versus one third work in similar cases and urges common sense in evaluating pitcher credit. Also, 313 women studied interpretive dancing at the University of Wisconsin summer session last year.
