Excerpt from How to Play Second Base While there are certain rules for playing second base that are fundamentally the same in all cases, it is rare to find two men who play the position exactly the same. In preparing this book "How to Play Second Base, " I have followed as closely as possible the method I have employed in the many years I have been in the National League. For some reason or other an erroneous impression was had of second base for a long time - that it was a position that could be easily filled for years after a player started to go back. That may have been the case before the science of team work was developed to its present standard and before there was s Omuch of what is termed "inside base ball, " which, after all, is nothing more than quick team work and quick headwork. My experience in playing second base in the National League has taught me that to be successful in the position, one must be a hustler. It is a case of hustle all the time, with your head, eyes, hands and feet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
