No regular umpire showing up, Morgan Murphy, of the Boston Blues, was agreed upon, and, by the way, he did very well, too. He is a catcher, and, after calling two strikes once, he put on a mask and, walking up behind the batsman, got into position to catch, forgetting for the minute that he was not playing.
