In the first half of the second inning, Steele's will to do and his arm to execute were very like his name. Kansas City could not score. In their half the Denver team made one run by clean hitting. Then the closely fought advantage see-sawed from one team to the other. It was not a pitchers' battle, though both men worked to the limit of skill and endurance. They were hit hard.
The Marquise was so disgusted at the way they see-sawed that she said she was going to sell them. "Sell them!" cried Jimmie. "Why, all in the world that's the matter with those poor brutes is that they don't speak French! Let me drive them!" So the Marquise saved Charles's vanity by saying that monsieur wished to try the new horses.
And so the ball see-sawed back and forth until the piping whistle of the timekeeper announced the close of the third quarter. A feeling of great happiness and determination had been filling Teeny-bits' mind during these last few minutes.
Andreas Döderlein rose to his full stature, see-sawed a bit on the tips of his toes, and looked down on Herr Carovius as one might look down upon a flea that one had caught and was just in the act of crushing between two finger nails. “Oh, ho,” he said, “how interesting! Upon my word, brother Carovius, you are an interesting individual.
It was curious how their fortunes had see-sawed, the one against the other, for twelve years. Left alone in his cell with his straw and bread and water, he looked round mechanically. It was yet after noon. All at once it came to him that this was not the cell which he had left that day. He got up and began to examine it. Like every healthy prisoner, he thought upon means and chances of escape.
"You see," said the peer, crossing his legs, and caressing his left foot with both hands, while he see-sawed his stately person to and fro in his chair "you see that the honour conferred upon me will make a great change in our mode of life, Mrs. Temple I mean Lady Vargrave. This villa is all very well my country house is not amiss for a country gentleman but now we must support our rank.
Just as we were starting on our walk one of my relatives said that I must not leave the yard. The little girl and I had see-sawed together and I had been interested in her legs as she rose in the air.
The disadvantage of this was that as often as not one end slipped off in the night and you were propelled on to the floor, or else two opposite corners held and the other two see-sawed in mid-air. Both great aids to nightmares.
So Ken, knowing his control, and sure that he could pitch high shoots all day over the incomer of the plate, had no more fear of the Place slugger. And it took only three more pitches to strike him out. From that on the game see-sawed inning by inning, Ken outpitching Salisbury, but neither team scored.
I must put it down on the table-on the table; but a thick cloud was between him and everything. It was with his hands he would have to put the bottle on the table! But he could not find his hands, could not feel them. His mind see-sawed in strophe and antistrophe: "You can't move!" "I will move!" "You're beaten" "I'm not beat." "Give up" "I won't."
