Text	[Camden vs. Hamilton 7/20/1866] The decisions of the Umpire [Wes Fisler] were fair and impartial, although he was not strict enough, but one ball being called upon the pitchers, who were very irregular throughout the game. The most notable thing (although the Camdens did not see it,) was the pitching of Eakin, which, from the first inning to the last, was a succession of baulks! Why the Camdens did not observe a fact so plain, we cannot imagine. We suppose, however, they were satisfied in having the lead, and as long as it was so, and entirely regardless of the rules established by the National Convention, they did not care how he pitched.” In the future, we hope to see a better game, with more respect to the rules of an Association to which they belong.
