Text	[National vs. Cincinnati 4/17/1880] When the game was more than half over some one in authority became aware of a fact, known to the crowd from the beginning, that Lynch was delivering the ball considerably above his waist. A protest was made, and Lynch then pitched according to rules—but for a few moments only, as he was immediately hit for two double bases and a single. He then returned to his former style, and maintained it without further interference from the umpire. Cincinnati Commercial April 18, 1880 Some of the Western papers are complaining about , forgetting or being ignorant of the fact that there is only one professional pitcher in the country who delivers the ball with his arms swinging nearly perpendicular by his side and his hand passing below his waist as the rules require. Cincinnati Commercial April 29, 1880, quoting the New York Clipper
