UNDER THE NEW RULES.
New Orleans and Mobile Play the
First Game of the Season.


First Game of the Season.
The New Orleans Lees and the Acids
OF Mobile played the first game under the
new rules. Dan O'Leary, who managed
the Scranton club last season, umpired,
and says it was one of the most interest
ing games he ever witnessed. One thing
is apparent, and that is game can no
longer be won by the battery. Every
man on the team must play. and the held-
ers VIII nave chance TO show their good
Judgment in capturing long fly hits. The
catcher has been relieved of his hardest
work. The game is enljvened from start
TO finish either by heavy batting or good
running catches. The rules are a trlt1e
severe on the pitcher, as he Is no longer
able to watch the bases as effectively as
heretofore. This gives runner Glance
to show mis- fleetness, and IN This game
the men took lots OF ground of the bags,
and in nearly all cases succeeded in steal
ing the bases.
O'Leary says it is amusing to see
PLAYER, especially one Of last seasons
heaviest batters, who has been in the
habit of striking at the balls delivered
above bis waist, attempt to hit low pail
and invariably tanning the air two feet
above the ball. Batting under the new
rules Will undoubtedly be heavier than
last season, as the pitcher cannot waste
any time in coaXing a ba'sman to hit at
an out-curve. but be must suoOt the ball
straight over the plate.
The game in question resulted In VIC
tory for the Lees by score OF II to ..
The Lees made IL hits and errors, to
hits and II errors tor the Acids.
