If a batter is put out, he/she becomes the fielder who is last in line [in right field, perhaps] to return to the batting position, and must work the way back, advancing position by position. A fielder who catches a fly ball exchanges places immediately with the batter.

They worked hard to substitute the new game for town-ball, and in the fall succeeded in organizing the Buckeye Base-Ball Club. This was the first Base-ball Club gotten together in Cincinnati.
