Text | There will be two umpires in the great games this fall between the League and Association pennant winners for the championship of the world. As the St. Louis Browns will be the Association club to contest for that honor, Von der Ahe has already engaged McQuade as one of the umpires. The other will be selected from the League. Both umpires will officiate in each game. While the Browns are at bat McQuade will give the ball and strike decisions, and the other umpire will be stationed on or near second base to call the base decisions. When the League club is at bat McQuade will go to second base and the League umpire will call balls and strikes. |
