Text | [reporting on the proceedings of the National Association convention] James Devlin, the expelled Louisville club player, talked before the convention for about twenty minutes, expressing penitence and begging for one more chance to show that he repented and meant to do right in future. The convention decided that, as the League Association expelled him, they must not reinstate him, but gave him the privilege of umpiring games the coming season. New York Tribune February 22, 1879 [Devlin would in fact umpire NA games, e.g. National vs. Worcester 8/15/79, per NYC 8/23/79.] |
