Text | [Baltimore vs. Athletic 5/14/1883] During the [rain] intermission the crowd sought shelter under the grand stand and seats. Those fortunate enough to have umbrellas hoisted them, and the rain trickled down the necks and backs of the enthusiastic unfortunates who vociferously demanded that the game should “go on.” “Put down your umbrellas” yelled the left field crowd over to their neighbors in the right field. “Go on with the game or give us our money back,” retorted the latter. Then a crowd of boys jumped the fence and came on the playing grounds, and the crowd yelled and laughed good-naturedly at the futile attempts of the officers to catch them. |
