Text | [Providence vs. Chicago 7/4/1878] The batsman hit a sharp tip to Harbridge [catcher[, and it struck that plucky little player in the breast and fell to the ground, but he made a quick recovery and caught it on the first bound. Mr. Egan -umpires--did not see the catcher, and, in his attempt to take the testimony of bystanders (as he has a right to do under the rules), he was met with anything but the polite treatment to which every umpire is entitled. |
