[Chicago vs. Metropolitan 4/25/1882] In the seventh inning, a low, wide throw by Hankinson [third baseman] gave Dalrymple a life and a chance to reach third-base on a “block” ball... New York Clipper May 6, 1882

[Chicago vs. Metropolitan 5/1/1882] ...three runs were given the Chicagos by the effect of “block” balls, viz., balls which, being stopped by the crowd, have to be held by the pitcher while standing in his position before they are again in play. New York Clipper May 6, 1882
