Text	A present the [Mutual] club is in a most prosperous condition, numbering some 300 members, and their playing strength has yet to be seen. New York World April 16, 1867 yet more on called balls being dead An inquirer from San Francisco desires to know whether a player running a base can make a base on a called ball, and offers the following example:–A player, for instance, has made his second-base and has started for his third, when the umpire calls “one ball”, or “two balls”. The question is, can the base-runner continue on, or is he obliged to return to his base? The answer of course is, that he can continue on and try to make the base. Players running bases are only required to return to the base they have left when a foul ball has been struck, or a flyball caught. The “Book of References” will be found a convenience in all such queries. ... A man can run his bases on called balls, but only at the risk of being put out. He is not required to return to his base on a called ball. New York Sunday Mercury April 21, 1867
