[from answers to correspondents] A ball is struck which goes right for the short stop, who is awaiting it, but right in front of him it strikes a stone or an uneven portion of the ground and bounds far above his head. Is this to be considered an error for the fielder, and is it a base hit to be counted for the striker? ... It is not an error, nor can it rightly be given as a base hit.
