George Wright will have to put his batting gloves on before the championship season opens, or he will woefully disappoint the expectations of his friends. Perhaps a little practice with the rest of the team, on days when there is no game, might help him. Boston Herald April 18, 1881

[See also, however, Boston vs. Cleveland 6/27/1881] Both clubs had on their batting boots today, and the pitchers were severely punished. Boston Herald June 28 [suggesting a metaphorical use]
