Text | Owing to the refusal on the part of the Atlantic Club to play any but the bound game, the second prize game of the Union series, which took place on the Atlantic grounds...was robbed of half the interest, and turned out to be little better than an ordinary practice game between the first nine of a club and the field. ... It is very desirable that the fly game should be practically experimented upon, in order to test its merits as regards the alleged superiority to that of the bound, and no series of games would be better adapted for the purpose than these Union practice matches, in which no club interests are concerned, as regards the defeat or victory of the club nine. |
