Text | [Athletics vs. Atlantics 10/15/1866] Galvin...was on his third when Mills, having struck twice and missed, had the third strike justly called on him for failing to strike at a good ball. Whatever the intention of a striker may be, the umpire is justified in inferring the batsman’s particularity in selecting balls when players are on the bases to a desire to enable them to run their bases, and, therefore, is justified in calling strikes whenever fair balls are pitched, and he alone is the judge of a fair ball. |
