Text	[reporting on the NL meeting 11/16] The resolution submitted by the joint rules committee for the approval of the League and American Association, concerning the use of any number of substitutes in a game, was discussed at length and radically altered as follows:--”Two players, whose name shall be printed on the score card as extra players, may be substituted at any completed inning by either club, but the retiring player shall not thereafter participate in the game. In addition thereto a substitute may be allowed at any time for a player disabled in the game then being played, by reason of injury or illness, of the nature or extent of which the umpire shall be the sole judge.” This resolution needs the concurrence of the American Association to become a law.
