[reporting on the AA annual meeting of 12/12/1883] Paragraph 5 of rule 51, which reads that a base-runner was out if, after three strikes, seven balls or a fair hit, he fails to run to first base, was stricken out, and the catcher and fielders will have chances next season to make double and triple plays on forced runs.
