Text	[Mutual vs. Eckford 9/21/1871] As usual with the Eckfords when in bad luck, they did considerable growling among themselves, but that done by Nelson was the worst heard this season. From the first ball struck in the first inning to th last in the ninth it was one continued growl. In the sixth inning, when Hicks, who had been badly hurt by a collision on the home plate with Eggler, was staggering after the ball, Nelson brutally declared that Hicks was not hurt, and that he was shamming. In the eighth he turned his attention to the umpire, Mort. Rogers, because that gentleman had rightfully declared Nelson out at third by a throw from Mills to Ferguson, Nelson having been caught feet off the base, the ball reaching there before he could return and touch the base with any part of his person.
