The Item also advises that the rule allowing the over-running of first base be extended to all the bases. During the last season many of the players were badly hurt by attempting to hold themselves on second and third bases after hard runs. There is no reason why they should not over-run both second and third, and we therefore urge the adoption of this rule.
