ROGERS HORNSBY HAS OWN HITTING SYSTEM Does Not Try to Outguess Opposing Oppos-ing Pitcher on Balls. Rogers Ilornsby, of the St. Louis Cardinals, leading batsman and run-getter run-getter of the National league, differs from most of the great present-day hitters in his method of attacK. The majority of players, particularly particular-ly those who are In the major circuits, i iW 1 Rogers Hornsby. try to outguess the pitcher. But Ilornsby has a different and far simpler sim-pler system. "It may be all right to try to outguess out-guess the pitcher," says Ilornsby. "But thnt Isn't what I do. "I Just go up there and swing at the ball when It comes over. I don't try to figure whether he Is going to throw a fast one, a slow one, a curve, high or low. I Just wait and see what comes up and If I think I can hit It right, I take a cut at It. That's all there Is to batting, in my opinion. "If you try to outguess a pitcher you Invariably get the worst of It If you full. For Instance, If you're almost al-most sure In your own mind the pitcher pitch-er la going to give you a fast one and you get a curve, see what happens. You're set for a siwedy one and when the curve comes you swing too soon and probably miss It altogether. "On the other hand, If you have an opon mind you are ready for anything and you can't get crossed."
