Text | It would be well for Harry Wright to look after the conduct of some of his players during the progress of a game, and see that they not only remain in their proper positions, but that they maintain the deportment of gentlemen. While the first portion of the second inning was being played yesterday Barnes, the Boston's second baseman, went over to the reporters' stand and deliberately seated himself upon the desk immediately in front of one of the reporters, so as not only to obstruct his (the reporter's) view of the field, but to partially crowd his book off the desk. When politely requested to move he positively refused to comply and coupled his refusal with insulting remarks. Will Harry look after this case? |
