Text	[Mutual vs. Athletic 7/20/1872] [Boyd at second, thrown out at the plate trying to score on McMullin’s hit] Bad judgment was shown here. As there were no hands out, it was not necessary for Boyd to be so anxious about getting home; in doing so, he made a most miserable start, and seeing that the point would be close, forgot to slide. The captain should have exercised his judgment at this point... Evening City Item July 22, 1872 [Boston vs. Athletic 9/09/1872] [McVey on third] Gould, high hit to Treacy [center fielder], out on fly, Treacy also putting McVey out (who ran “home,”) by a quick bound throw to McGeary [catcher]. {McVey made a very feeble effort to come “home,” getting a poor start, and failing to heed Wright’s advice–“Slide in!”} Evening City Item September 10, 1872
