TRIPLE PLAY Is EXECUTED
Hyatt and Corriden Make First One
Ever Seen In Kansas City
Pulled OF Quickly.

Did you ever see . triple play!
It's one hundred to one that you
haven't Old timers will tell you that
they have seen the play number OF
times, but after thinking they finally
remember 1t was something they had
read about.
The triple play engineered by Hyatt
and Corriden the other day was the
first ever witnessed by the writer, and
said writer has been taking In the
game in Kansas City for Is years,
starting in at a Knot hole at old
League park and winding up In the
grandstand at Association park, Dan
Shay says that he saw pair OF the
side retirers during his long career
on the diamond. but even Daniel can't
tell exactly when and where they were
pulled OF. George Tebeau. who played
ball rs years ago, says that he re-
members seeing one triple play years
ago. He doesn't remember the per.
petrators of the act. And 80 on down
the line, says a writer In the Kansas
City Star.
A triple play occurs In regular base
ball circles about once in every i've
years. Two years ago Neal Ball OF
the Cleveland Club made triple play
unassisted. Cleveland was playing
Boston, and Ball went back Of second
base, nailed low liner, stepped on
second. and then caught the runner
coming from first and tagged him.
Harry O'Hagen, playing with Roches.
ter In the Eastern league, pulled on
the same kind OF play In a game
against Buffalo about IL years ago.
O'Hagen formerly played with Kan
sas City.
The play engineered by Hyatt and
Corriden was pulled so quickly that
half OF the crowd didn't know what
came of. With Fisher on first and

sooner touched the initial bag than he
slammed the ball to Corriden. who

baseball, 1t is argued, and some Of
the biggest men in the government
of the national game are urging the
commission to take action. Messrs.
Johnson, Hermann and Lynch all
favor clean ball and are firmly op-
posed to kicking. For that reason 1t
Is believed that they will soon frame
a rule to prevent fighting on the ball
field which will provide for suspen-
sions of long duration or excessive
fines. Patrons of the game pay to
see expert ball playing, not smuggling
and rowdyism, and their wishes in
this matter should receive prompt
recognition, 1t Is believed.
