Text	[Mutual vs. Chicago 7/28/1871] Hatfield then took a hand, and hitting a fair foul red hot past third... New York Clipper August 12, 1871 the uncertainty of the game creates distrust We have been often told that our game was dying out, that trickery and fraud had been resorted to in some of the great contests of the past. The spectacle of a leading club, composed of the most celebrated players, failing to score a single run against a club that thought themselves unable to compete for the eagerly sought for title of champion, and only a few days after defeating them by overwhelming odds, has created a feeling if distrust, which cannot be easily smoothed over. New York Clipper August 12, 1871, from a letter from an unidentified Cincinnati correspondent [His suggestion was to play fewer games, giving fewer chances for disparate outcomes.]
