catchers concussions
Date | Saturday, August 30, 1890 |

Text | A blow on the mask is dreaded by a catcher almost as much as a broken finger. A heavy blow with most catchers means a headache for several days, and sometimes longer. It frequently hurts the eyes. Almost every catcher has suffered that way at some time or another. |

umpire should call injury timeouts
Date | Friday, October 6, 1871 |
---|---|
Text | [Chicago vs. Boston 6/2/1871] Two strikes had been called upon Pinkham, when he struck at the ball and hit McVey on the arm, disabling him for some minutes, and as the umpire failed to call time Simmons and Duffy came in and Pinkham got to second. ... Whenever any accident occurs in the game to a player on either side, the umpire should promptly call “time.” In this case the Chicagos, availing themselves of every legal point, took advantage of the position, and got in two runs they were not fairly entitled to. |
