Dave Gallagher Newsbeat
Monday, March 11, 2013
Immediately above the linked article in the Pittsburgh Gazette Times, March 11, 1913: Claiming his players lost the Michigan intercollegiate Athletic Association Baseball championship last year because they “shied” at pitched balls, Coach Mather of Kalamazoo College tonight, announced he will introduce a “shackle” batting cage for practice this spring. The coach says each batter will have his inside foot chained to a stake, thus forcing him to stand up to the plate and face the pitcher.
Dave Gallagher, eat your heart out.
