[in Answers to Correspondents] [answering a question, not quoted, from J.B. Thompson, Troy] [The question] has been answered gain and again in the columns of the Clipper. Of course when a player reaches his first base, without being put out, he ceases to be the striker; and consequently if put out afterwards, that fact does not prevent the run of a player, who gets home before the other is put out, from counting. The player, in the instance you refer to, scores his run, because the “striker” was not put out, though the player who hit the ball was.
