Ulays made at critical points where 20
600 enthusiastic people cheered the
player as earnestly as If he had saved
his nations flag. l shall not write OF
the plays made before the largest crowds
or OF those that were the most literally
applauded.
In describing the five most brilliant
plays | have ever seen, my experience
as q player will have much to do with
my judgement. Work that might seem
phenomenal TO the spectator who has
never played the game would often be
considered weak from professional
standpoint. In the plays that have
selected brain, hand and heart worked
together on the impulse, accOml fishing
that which by losing q fractional part OF
a second would have failed.
HERMAN LONGS FLYING LEAP.
Can you imagine a man flying? 1t
not, it will be difficult matter for me
TO describe the play made by Herman
Long, of the Boston club, at Philadel-
phia, in the summer OF 1892. The cham
pionship season was about twO-thirds
over, and the Quakers were gradually
crawling up on the Boston leaders. Har-
nv Wright's boys had taken two games
from the champions before tremendous
crowds OF people, and the third and last

ia great contrast with the dismay Of
the Cincinnati boys, who had met their
/ first defeat in two seasons. Captain
George Wright was dumbfounded, aud
his step was heavy and his demeanor
crushed and troubled. Mr.. McVey
went to California twelve years ago and
was in business near San Francisco the
last | heard OF him.
STRAIGHT THROWS To HOME PLATE.
John T. Morrill, made remarkable
play that saved the Boston team from a
defeat in 1856. The Boston and Pitts
burgh teams were playing at the South
End grounds in Boston. Morrell was
at the time covering first base. With
the score tie, Pittsburg had player
on third base with one out;
the batsman met the ball
fair, and IL went like shot
along the ground very close to first base.
1t was do or die with the Boston player;
a step and dive with his left hand and
the ball was reached. Like a flash he
changed it to the right hand and sent it
straight as an arrow to the catcher in
time to head of the man coming home.
After the throw Morrill, fell full length
on the grass and was as much surprised
IS anyone when be saw that the ball had
beaten the runner and his team saved
from defeat. never knew a player who
could throw ball with such ease and
vet so accurately as Morrill,. The next
man went out with the score still tie
and the game was called. Mr.. Morrill,
is now connected with the firm of Wright
& Ditson, Boston.
The Boston and Cincinnati teams
were playing a close and brilliant game
at Cincinnati, in '92. when Captain
Comiskey made a play that saved the
game at the time for his team. Hugh
Duffy was at the third in the last half
of the ninth inning, with the score a
tie. There was one man out and 4 good,
sure hitter at the bat. The ball was
hit we'll to the right of Comiskey, who

ball with his right after jump, and

before getting his feet on the ground
had sent it 10 the home plate, in time to
catch the 1eet-footed Boston man. The
ball was handled with two motions,
which necessitated great playing
10 execute. 1t was the proper time 20
take chance, and the great Cincinnati
captain was equal to the emergency.
Captain Comiskey is a resident Of Chi
cago, and will have charge OF the Gin
cinnati club this season. The teams
under this captain have been noted for
team work and pluck. Mr.. Comiskey
has no equal as first baseman, and is
the warm friend Of every deserving ball
player.
PAUL HINES SINGLE HANDED TRIPLE
PLAY.
Paul Hines is the only man who ever
made a triple play single handed.
The history Of the game will
show less than half a dozen triple
PLAYS and the chances OF ever
seeing another single-handed one is
very slight indeed. 1t was in rs that
Hines electrified the base ball world by
making q triple play that saved the
game for his team and put him a niche
higher than any other ball player The

game Of the series found the BostOns
determined to make the fight OF their
lives. Herman Long was the hero OF
the Boston victory; his batting was ter
rife aud his fielding grand. While both
teams were fighting for the lead, he
made phenomenal play that turned
the tables In favor of Boston. The ball
was hit hard, and went sailing out to-
ward center field. a volley OF cheers
followed the drive and doubled In vol
ume when Long was seen TO make what
the players call a Dunlap" or grand
stand catch. In this instance IL was the
only way the play could have been ac-
complshed. The ball was taken with
the right hand over the left shoulder,
while in the air, after a sharp run and
flying leap, where his heels went nearly
as high as his head. Mr.. Long is still
a member of the champion Boston team,
and the most brilliant ball player on the
field at the present lime.
CAL M'vEY's GREAT THROW.
Cal McVey, the old Boston and Chi
cago league player, was one OF the most
powerful throwers ! ever saw. In 1870
he was member of the famous Gin
cinnati Red Stockings, who were then
well into their second season without
mearing q single defeat. Their first de-
feat was at the Capitoline grounds,
Brooklyn, before 5000 0people. L, this
game McVey made wonderful throw,
that would have shut of the winning
run for the Atlantics but for a muff by
Allison at the home plate.
The ninth inning resulted in five runs
each; the tenth was a blank; Cincinnati
made two runs in the eleventh and felt
sure of the game. With two men on
bases, "old reliable" Joe Start hit the
ball in among the spectators at right
field, they having crowded in on the
field The people were IN sympathy
with the Brooklyn men and McVey had
a hard time getting the ball. lie pushed
his way clear after a great struggle,
just as Start had turned third base and
started for home, with the crowd
cheering him on. With short step
and q swing. McVey's arm shot out like
a piston rod, and the ball went as
bullet into the catcher's hams, where
it was dropped. just as Start rolled over
the plate with tSe winning run,
exhausted and out of breath With
one great roar and rush the
immense crowd was on the
field in an instant aud Joe was
hoisted upon the shoulders Of sew

high over second base. Hines made q
long, desperate run, knowing that II
meant the loss OF the game If he failed.
1t looked like an utter impossioility TO
make the catch. The men on bases had
started for home, and the Boston SYM
pathizers sent up wild yell, but 1t was
cut short as Hines reached the ball, get
ting IL about two inches from the ground
and held il, the momentum carrying him
twenty-five Ya-ds before he regained
control OF himself. Both men had
crossed the home plate and, seeing there
was no use in trying TO get back, stood
bewildered, as Hines logged over to
third base, putting three men out, as
the runners were forced 10 come back
and touch the base in regular order az
ter fly ball had been caught. This
play saved the game for Providence and
Hines was talked about as no player
ever was before. Mr.. Hines is now a
clerk In one Of the government depart
ments at Washington.
GREATEST GAME OF THEM ALL.
While these FIVE plays are the most
wonderful l have witnessed, yet de-
scribing them brings 70 my recollection
hundreds of other great plays, too nu-
merous to mention, though full or in
terest to the lovers of the grandest and
greatest game. as an outtield sport, ever
known. l make this strong statement
with delberaton and judgement, and
prove 1t by the old adage. The proof
OF the pudding is the eating"
Through 4 long and extensive ae-
Quaintance of twenty years stand
ing with the game, first as PLAYER
and later as writer on the sport, l as
sert that the American game OF bsll
will be played long after every other
game OF the present age has been laid
away on the shelf. Its very simplicity
is the life Of base bail, the bone and
Sinew Of the whole sport. Two persons
can take a ball aud bat, and on a fine
day in summer go to field, and bat al
ternately for hours, enjoying them
selves the whole time. Is there any
game. played in the open air. that is so
simple TO play and yet can hold the in
terest and attention OF two or more per-
sons, as the national game OF America?
