Probably the finest display of out-fielding ever witness on a ball field was that which marked the majority of the professional contests of 1872. One cause of this was that the out-field class, almost without exception, were composed of players earnestly bent upon doing their best to win, which cannot be said of all who played in the in-field; for it was in the in-field that all the fraudulent play, if any, was committed.
