Looking For a Better Year -- Detroit Tiger pitcher Don Mossi (right) demonstrates to Ray Narleski how he turns his hand over in delivering one of his favorite pitches, the "screw" ball, at the Tigers early camp in Lakeland yesterday. Narleski, who missed all of last season because of a back injury, expects to experiment with pitches other than his curve and fast ball during spring training season. Mossi had a bad year in 1960 and is working out at the early camp hoping to return to his winning form.
