|BASEBALL DOPE
by TIM MURNANE

BOSTON, May 16.-Just two
changes were made in the playing
rules for this season, and yet the gen
eral baseball public was never more
at sea, judging from the numerous
questions l am receiving daily as 70
the constructions put on the code.
The whole trouble lies in the fact
that different constructions have OFT
en- been put on the rules by the two
major league presidents, aud, Finding
the umpires of the two major leagues
differing, the executive officers OF the
class A leagues, and often OF lower
classes, put their own interpretations
on the rules, until there is no head
or tail to the code. This shows the
necessity of having the rules thorough
IL understood and agreed upon before
the playing season arrives.
Why should President Pulliam and
President johnson fail TO agree on
every rule in the book as the result
is the work of joint committee from
the two big leagues, who forced the
minor leagues out of the rule-making

fielded, for there lies the life OF the
game.
Some time ago the national COM
mission took it upon themselves to
solve the much agitated problem OF
a home for disabled ball players.
Mr.. Hermann was picked out as the
genius to develop the idea, but seems
to have passed the matter up. Herr
mann is practical man, and finding
no doubt, the lack of interest players
have taken in the move, win go slow
in the matter. Mr. Hermann is
generous, compared to the general
run of baseball magnates. For ~
ample, know where he gave one of
his scouts 1000 for the same line
of work that another magnate paid
$500 for, and the latter was one
of the big money-makers of the yer.
You cannot always tell the good
ness or appreciation of a baseball
magnate by the praise you see of
him in the press. 1 know of men in
the game who would rather spend
$1,000 for little personal pleasure
than give one of their best players 10
cents increase in salary.

that OIoughlin had killed all chances
for a "queeZe" play. The umpire was
absolutely right in his decision, 10
there is a vast difference between
throwing the ball to the catcher and
pitching the ball to batsman. The
box man has a perfect right to throw
to any base by stepping in the prop
er direction, as long as he does so be-
fore starting his preliminary motion
to deliver the ball. The trouble at
Detroit was that P. Dougherty started
for home before the boxman started
his preliminary swing.
The+squeeze" play can be pulled
OF by waiting for the pitcher to start
his preliminary motion, for, no mat
ter how short the swing, the runner
can beat the ball to the plate. II the
batsman succeeds in placing the ball
on fair grounds, and the runner has
no chance when the batsman fails to
meet tde ball.
/ have yet to see the squeeze play
tried this spring, as the pitchers are
pretty well able to call the turn and
make it unpleasant for the man al
bat
Umpires are having their trouonss
just the same as ever, and the new
men in the business are having more
trouble to make good than the young
players. Umpires, like players,
should be given fair chance to get
their bearings and feel they haSe

where he tells them not to allow
coachers OF players from the bench
to try and rattle the pitchers, -,
pecially the younger men. For weak
and insipid pitching Is often the re
suit of a young boxman going into
the air as the result Of uncalled-for
comments from the coaching lines.
Tas. time has passed for this style
of unfair play, and every league in
the country should instruct umpires
to follow the Pulliam code. Specta-
tors seldom enjoy bases ON balls as

Wild pitches, passed balls, bases on

In a game in the New England
League last week an outfieldSr caught
fly ball in large NIT and the UNI
pire promptly gave the man his base.
Later in the week the question was put
up to former umpire Of the Ameri-
| can League, and he declared that he
would have made the man bat over
again, showing his ignornce of the
rules.
Section 6 of rule "a reads. A play
er is entitled to his base If a fielder
stops or catches a batted ball with his
cap. glove or any part of his uniform,
while detached from its proper JlaIo
on his uniform.
Rule 20 reads: The catcher or
first baseman may wear glove or
mitt OF any size, shape or weight.
Every other player is restricted to
| the use of a glove or mitt weighing
| not over ten ounces and measuring
| not over fourteen inches around the
palm.
When the umpire found the mitt
| overweight and several inches larger
than the rules called for, it was ais
| duty to allow the batsman his base
and order the scores 10 credit the bat
/ ter with a base hit. So far as the
rules went, the outfielder might as
| Tell have caught the bali in tennis
! racket or a butterfly net, and there
was no rule to force the batsman to
go to the bat once more and PEI
chance go out on striking, for there
was chance of the fielder muTfing
| the ball even with regulation gloves.
The new rule giving the bafsman a
sacrifice nit for long fly Were a
run is scored is drawn rather fine, as
| the ball must be caught to exempt the
| batsTaE from time at bat.
| AS the b9tsman succeeds in scoring
the runner. what difference does Il
make whether the bali is caught Of
not?
