[reporting on the Brotherhood meeting of 11/11/1886] [discussing possible rules changes] A base hit should be scored for a base on balls; this would reward the batter and properly punish the pitcher; it would remove the cause of much internal dissension between the captain and players and would avoid the tiresome exhibition of pitchers giving bases on balls to save their records.
