Hulbert has an office in the left-field corner of the Chicago ground, and he also possessed a huge dog, which is allowed to play about outside the office and unchained. In one of the Chicago-Worcester games, the left-fielder while running after a batted ball, was brought to a sudden standstill by the appearance of the dog with his mouth open, and emitting the fiercest growls. The left-fielder viewed the animal , and not caring to lose an important part of his uniform pants, he concluded it was not bets to try for the sphere, and the dog guarded the ball until the batsman made a home run.
