SILENT SAM
By Jeff Hayes I I
JT ALWAYS has been our belief
that the time to compare ath
letes is at the end of their careers.
For example, why try to compare
Ted Williams, after
five seasons, with
Ty Cobb's 24 sea
sons?
Why try to com
pare Bobby Jones,
retired for 16
years after win
ning 13 national
and international
championships,
with Byron Nelson
who so far has
won 3?. And don't
Ty Cobb
forget that Jones ran 1-Z in the
U. S. Open eight out of nine years.
Ted Williams and Byron Nelson
have many years left in which they
may rise to even greater heights,
or for one reason or another sud
denly fall away.
I recall just about the outbreak
of the war when more than a few
were placing Joe DiMaggio above
Tris Speaker as an all-around out
field star. DiMaggio was and still
is a great ball player. But even
Joe's most vehement supporters to
day wouldn't place him above the
flight of the Gray Eagle, the class
of all outfielders in the air or along
the ground, who could also hit from
.350 to .386 in his better seasons
through a long stretch of time.
Take Ty Cobb and Ted Williams.
Few pitchers could. Ted Williams
is the longer, harder hitter. But
how many remember that Ty Cobb
led the American league nine
years in a row ? that he led the
American league in 12 out of 13
consecutive seasons. Think that
one over.
What hitters were in Cobb's
road? What was their class? Prac
tically no one except Shoeless Joe
Jackson, Napoleon Lajoie, Tris
Speaker, Babe Ruth, Wahoo Sam
Crawford, Bobby Beach and a few
of that ash-tinted ilk.
I see they are now comparing
Bob Feller and Walter Johnson,
certainly two of the greatest. No
one can tell me that Bob Feller
or anyone else had Johnson's
speed. Feller has a greater vari

enough. They usually beat him 1
to 0 or 2 to 1 and even working
with a weak-hitting outfit, he still
could win more than 30 games a
year pitching against some of the
great hitters of all time. But none
of these great hitters was on Old
Barney's side. The idea is that
Johnson has already turned in his
20-year record. Feller still has
many years to go.
Feller isn't working with much
of a ball club, either. He is to a
certain extent in Johnson's spot.
Johnson, pitching for the Athletics
in those days, could have won 40
games more than once. Feller,
working with the Red Sox, could
be another 40-game winner. There
will be time enough later on to
rank Johnson and Feller.
'Old Pete Alexander
If you talk to hitters who faced
him and who have been around,
they won't nominate Walter John
son or Bob Feller as the top mas
ter of the pitching tribe. They
won't give you Cy Young who won
510 or Christy Mathewson. Their
nominee is an entry known as
Grover Cleveland Alexander, also
known as "Old Pete."
Working with the lowly Phillies,
Alexander won 31 games in 1915,
33 games in 1916 and 30 games in
1917, a total of 94 games in three
consecutive years with a ball club
that never belonged ? outside of
Alexander.
In 1916 he pitched 16 shutout
games, most of them in the Phil
lies' bandbox park. Through six
years, he had an earned run aver
age under two rims per game.
As a rookie in 1911 he won 28
games with the lowly Phillies.
Alexander was a stretcher bearer
with the army in 1918, one at the
tongh jobs of any war. He then
had been pitching seven years.
On his return to the Cabs in 1919
and 1929, he allowed 1.72 and 1.91
earned runs per game, an incredi
ble performance. Through his
career Old Pete had no interest
in any form of training. He hap
pened to be an eccentric genius,
a great artist, which so few are.
ac ucw ciicuy wucre uir uau
should go to certain hitters, and
be could put it there too.
Johnny Evers, who had batted
against the best, once told me that
Alexander was the only pitcher he
ever faced who made him feel
like throwing his bat away. "I
knew how useless it was," Evers
said.
? ? ?
Cardinal Class
Overlooking the boisterous and
heartfelt boos from Brooklyn, the
Cardinals have been the class of
the league from the start. They
have had no better ball players
than Dixie Walker and Pete Reiser
and Pewee Reese.
But no sane baseball follower can
tell you that the hustling Dodgers
have the class to match Stan
Musiai, Marty Marion, Country .
Slaughter, Red Schoendienst, Ter- |
ry Moore and Whitey Kurowski.
