Text | [describing Dick Pearce] It [the batted ball] was a grounder, he would first stop, pick it up fearless–a way he had–encouraged by his deliberation and movement the poor fellow the running the base, with the hope of reaching it, and then away went the ball like a rifle-shot, straight into Price’s hands at first base,–and he was the man to hold them too–just a second before the player put his foot on the base. “Judgment,” Dickey would cry, and “out on the first base,” would be the reply of the umpire, invariably. |
