Bob Feller of the famed fireball believes he will pitch the Cleveland Indians to 20 victories this year. It s true he had his lowest win ning percentage in his 14 years with the Tribe In 1949. "I'm not throwing in the sponge, far from it," he says. Feller believes two factors which have now been rectified caused his difficulties last year (1) a shoulder injury, (2) weak hitting on the part of his team-mates. . "I hurt my . back in San Fran cisco during a spring training ex bltltion," Feller explained. "It was n't right at the start of the season and I lost six of the first seven games I pitched, "I should have quit for a while and given it a chance to heal. In stead I kept on throwing, and kept on having trouble." Finally Feller did take a rest. When he returned to the lineup una Biunua winning games some fans believed he had changed his style of throwing. "There was no change," Feller said. "I pitched the same kind of ball I had always pitched. I threw everything I had all the time." Feller isn't alibiing when he mentions Cleveland hitting. "There were times when I was hit hard and runs couldn't have helped me," he pointed out. "But I lost five games when we didn't score a run and five more when we only scor ed one.

"Certainly I'm not throw ing as fast as I was 15 years ago," he says, "You wouldn't expect It. But I still throw a fast ball. I think I throw as fast as any other man In the league." Some men who know baseball feel Feller cut short his major league career by post-season barn storming trips. Feller doesn't. "Barnstorming hasn't cut my time In the majors by a single day." he says. "Post season ball doesn't hurt anyone if they keep ln shape. I did. I may. have pitched almost every day. But onlv for a few inn ings at a time.
