Excerpt from How to Play Shortstop
As in nearly every other department Of life, there are men physically better adapted to holding the position Of shortstop than others. A peculiar combination Of strength, speed and keen wits is required.
In general the men who are-built low and close to the ground are accepted as ideal for this position. Short stature means that it is easier for the player to field ground balls, as he will have to stoop a less distance. It means generally increased activity in foot-work and ability to get in motion quicker. Then, too, when pulling down a high throw the short man does not have to come so far to tag the runner out. The shortstops Of early base ball were largely men of short legs, long, strong arms and powerful torso.
