It is always best, when possible, to use both hands to stop or catch a ball; but sometimes a hit is so far to either side, or so high, that it can only be reached with one hand. Therefore, a short-stop should practice one-hand play so that he may be able to use it when the emergency requires. He should never attempt it at any other time.
Slowly Zikali opened his eyes, staring at the roof of the hut, whence came a curious sound as of squeaking bats. He looked like a dead man coming to life again. For a few moments he turned up his ear as though he listened to the squealing, then said "It is well. The Spirit that I summoned has visited her of our company who is named One-hand and returned with the answer.
In the biographer’s relation to the dead man on the one-hand and to the public on the other should he be so unhappy as to forget that time is of the very “essence of the contract”—should he forget that so inwoven is human life that truth spoken at the wrong moment may be a greater mischief-worker than error—he may, if conscientious, have to remember that forgetfulness of his during the remainder of his days.
The next batter, Long, likewise hit the ball, driving it buzzing along the ground, and again the crowd groaned; for Nelson made a hair-raising, one-hand, diving jab and got the sphere. He nearly sprawled at full length upon the ground in doing this, but finally regained his equilibrium in time to toss the ball to Crane for the second put-out. "Right fine work, Jack," praised Grant.
So that, while discountenancing one-hand plays when two hands may be used, I still think every fielder should practice one-hand catches, to be prepared for such a play when it becomes necessary. In fielding balls hit along the ground, the fielder should not wait until the ball comes to him, but run in to meet it as quickly as possible.
Did you not hear it speaking in the thatch, O King?" "I heard something, Wizard," answered Cetewayo in an awed voice. "I thought it was a bat." "A bat it is, O King, one with wide wings and swift. This bat says that my sister, One-hand, will meet you on the third day from now at this hour on the further side of the ford of the Ibululwana, where three milk-trees grow together on a knoll.
I examined it well, and I could not hold it in the air with one-hand, still less handle it with both hands except with much difficulty. It is pretended that this is the sword the Great Captain made use of, and with which he obtained so many victories. I marvelled at the strength of the men in those days, with whom I believe early habits did much.
"I thought I saw a purple box in the front window as I drove up," said Carlisle. "Is it a secret who sent them?" "'Bout forty," said Chas, making a fine one-hand catch of a napkin. "You'd hardly call 'em a bunch, Tee Wee more like a nosegay." "Pass this coffee to Cally, son." "Bob Dunn sent 'em, Cally, down at the bookstore," said Looloo, sweetly.
