Date	Thursday, August 15, 1867
Text	[Mutuals vs. Atlantics 8/12/1867] Start then hit a foul ball to Pike, and as the crowd hollered loudly at the hit, the call of “foul” by the umpire was not heard, and Crane [at first base] ran to his second, and Pike passing the ball to Devyr, and the latter muffing, it, Crane started for his third; then it was that “foul ball” was called by the players, and as the ball was sent to the pitcher, and by him to first before Crane could get back, Fred became a victim of the yells of his Atlantic friends in the crowd, the umpire’s call being drowned by the noise.
