Text | [Excelsior vs. National 9/18/1866] McLean and Studley then made fine hits on which they easily secured their bases, and eventually both came home, Studley by a wild throw of Norton’s [the catcher], Randall striking out. We were please to see this player taught a lesson by the umpire. He was over particular at the bat in order to give Studley a chance to get in, and had struck twice without effect and had allowed two good balls to pass him, when the third one led the umpire [Mr. Alliger of the Atlantic Club of Jamaica] to call a strike on him for not batting at a good ball. |
