Chief Bender – Delivery Pose, 1910

Bender extends his delivery at the Hilltop Park in New York. Yet another photo exhibiting the grace of Bender’s pitching form.

These photos were intended to be used by newspapers. A great example of this is how this Bender image has been incorporated to a September, 1910 article about the upcoming A’s/Cubs World Series.
