HARTFORD.
A PITCHERS BALK THAT
 LOST A CHAMPIONSHIP.

In a stirring article on Close De- cisions of Empires" in the June num- Der of The American Magazine, Hugh Fullerton. the nationally known base ball writer, tells a number of new and interesting stories. One of them shows just how much depends on an umpires sharp eye. or his fairness or both. Writes Fullerton:
 There is a hero, whose name I never knew, who perhaps made the closest decision on record in a game between New Orleans and Nashville a few years ago. One ball, which, according to unprejudiced players who spoke after the bitterness died out, might have been called either way, decided the season. The ball was pitched close to, perhaps a DOT tion of it over, the outside corner of the plate. If it was a strike, New Orleans won the pennant: if a ball, Nashville had chance. The umpire called 1t a ball, making the count three balls, two strikes, two out and one ball left to decide the South ern League pennant. The next ball slipped from Breitenstein's hand as he pitched and Nashville won the pennant."
