s Tb@. Cauiln eSttean owVnme.tls1 La2.1!, 1U TME KING AND MIS COURT This fabulous teint had ibete bealnning ln a most un- Ilkely place - a prison. It bagat% ln 1048 whon Eddie Peigner w.. back froin World War il andi ploiftg oftbéil ina Wll& Walla, Washington. Hl* teain, whleh inctudeti Miks Meilike, Mende Kinsci mnd Ken Whte (destlned to bernme th* original other thre members of the King and Ni% Court) had clobbered their rival#. He was tounted about hi* abillty and I mmediately hurleti a challenge right bark that ho only needeti three flelders withhlm Io win. He requesteti permission ta play en Inmate team tfram Washington Stàte prison. It was approvebd and the game was helti with the four mani team wlnnlng easily. One week later they met the rivais wha started it &ILi.Peigner tosseti a even-inning no-hitter, striking out 19, with the other two being eu%>- infielti outs. The King tolti this reporter that the ane garne he'11 inever -forget wa in 1950. "We piayed Tip Top Tailors, who hati won the world tournament the year before. They had five Al-World sluggers and we playeti aine inalags of score- less ball," he said. *'We finally won 3-2 la extra play, but ineyer deviateti from anur routine ta play It stralght." Eddie weat on ta say. "It was the greateat game I ever pitcheti. Igave up ane hit; we got four." But rnost of the time Feigner put, on an amazing show with an assortment of pitches, which we mentioned ia last weeks column. Usuaily, once during a game, he starts ta deliver his behinti the back pitch, but slams it into his glove, Insteati. Either the umpire goes alang with it, or catcher Jim Herrick calls a strike. Once, while participating in an exhibition encaunter, against a strang team ia Alberta, Feigner pulleti the trick,ý causing the batter to immediately argue with the umpire.1 Eddie assumed that he was complaining that there was noý pitch. Shortly, the catcher came trotting out ta the mound, and related that the batter was really arguing that the! pitch was high. The aight before they playet inl Oshawa, the King anti Ris Court playet inl Boston, on Saturday, and thea weat an ta Baltimore for -a Monday night encouniter, priar ta an Orioles game. Surprisingly eaough, with this type of icheti- ule, Eddie has neyer had a sore arrn. He believes that tension, * is the major cause, also pointing out that h. does't throwl hard - just fast whea he has ta. Feigner's under-arrn delivery fromn 46 feet was once clocked at 104 miles per hour. Bob Feller's basebaîl best froin 60 feet 6 inches away was 98 m.p.h. He dlaims he bas enough of a variety of speetis, curves, windups, andi different types of pitches, ta be nble ta throw three games in a raw without re-usiag the same pitch! The King anti His Court have playedti ta ver eight:ý million fans, while travelling some 1,700,000 miles.
