He actually set that up as an example of what he thought he would hit by swinging at pitches in certain locations. It wasn't exactly a specific time frame, but just a tool to help him and others decide what pitches to swing at. That display is a cool item I always check out there

Please check out my books on baseball history. They include the bio of star second baseman Dots Miller. A book featuring 20 Moonlight Graham players who got into just one game. Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history. All five can be found here:
