Text | [Toronto vs. Pittsburgh 4/18/1889] The decisions of Umpire Aborgast gave much offense to the visitors, so much so that they refused to contribute their share of his fee. Manager Phillips and Secretary Scandrett each tried to induce the manager of the Torontos to pay, but he claimed that he had not been consulted about his engagement and, therefore, didn't think he was compelled to pay. The debt, for such it is, remains unpaid and its existence is not creditable to the Canadians. |
