[Philadelphia vs. Chicago 5/14/1883] The “Phillies” went into the game without Ferguson, who has a nail torn from his finger, and Benedict, a young man whom the Chicago have been having in reserve, played the bag [second base] acceptably in his stead, besides doing heavy batting, clearing the bases in the fifth inning.
