Answer to Yesterdays Problem

The umpire IN charge OF the game
permitted the runner originally on sec
ond tc score. despite the fact that he
had apparently been retired at the
plate. Section 3 of Rule 72, relating to
ground rules. says: I'm all cases where
a thrown ball goes into a stand for
SPECTATORS, or through any fence sur
rounding the playing field, or into the
pIa-ers' bench. whether the ball re-
bounds into the field or not, the runner
or runners shall be entitled to two
Eases The screen used on all grounds
directly behind the catcher is placed
there simply to prevent accidents, as
a majority of the balls fouled and
thrown go directly in back Of the
catcher. The screen is not placed there
to prevent balls going into the stand
for any other reason. While the ball
did rot go into the stand, the UNI
pire feld it would have done so had the
S; reen not been there; and he also
took into consideration the fact that
the player was forced to remove his
glove and throw it at the ball to re-
move it from the screen. The presi-
dent of the league upheld the umpire
and commended his Judgment A prece-
dent having been established, other UNI
nires now follow it-Billy Evans.

Bill Evans Has New
Problem for the Fans
Rv BILLY EVANS.

A play came up In one Of the big
leagues several years ago that caused
one of the clubs to forfeit. 1t Is a play
that comes up very often, and always
creates more or less confusion 1t
deals with interference, and the crowd,
as a rule. insists on trying to determine
whether or not the interference was in
tentional.
The play, as it came up in the big
league. created a Wild West finish. The
bases were filled, with one man out in
the last half of the ninth. Three runs
were needed to tie and four to win. The
batter hit hard grounder at the short
stop. 1t looked as IL the latter had a
sure double play in front of him that
would retire the side and end the rally
of the home team. All runners, Of
course, started to advance as soon as
the ball was hit.
After settling himself for the ball,
the shortstop evidently decided that "
he took a step backward he would be IN
a slightly better position to make a hur-
ried throw to second. That decision
was a fatal one The runner going
from second to third was just in back
of the shortstop as he took the step
The two men collided, both going to
the ground. while the ball continued its
course to the Outfield. The left fielder
let it get away from him, and It rolled
to the fence. All four runs scored, ap-
parently winning the game for the
home team.
The game was played in the days Of
the one umpire. For some reason, the
official in charge Of the game was look
ing elsewhere when the interference
happened, and his attention was not
called to the mix-up until he saw both
runner and fielder on the ground.
There was a big kick, of course. The
crowd surged on the field. the home
club hurried to its dressing quarters,
while the visiting players and crowd
surged around the poor. unfortunate
umpire. What do you suppose hap
pened?

All of which brings on a fairly tick
lish situation. The Smoke is now barred
in every land where sufficient civiliza-
ton has been established to erect

outside chance that he will ever be al
lowed to enter the ring in champion
Urir fray. Apparently then his only
chance TO lose the title is by death,
which is likely to be about 1858. John
son # the first ring champion ever
barred to any such extent and. unless
tn" title goes by default. there seems
little chance for any quick change in

HOW SULLY GAVE
TIGERS PENNANT

livan would not give ia and handed
the spitball pitcher the fast ball sign
for the third time. At last. Walsh con-
ceded it. He bluffed at weIting the
ball and wound up, with0all three men
on the bases on the move, but it shot
across the plate at Lajoie's knees and
fooled the big Frenchman, who had
been looking for a splitter and expected
the ball to break bad, when he saw
how low it was coming He thought II
would surely be a ball, and it would
have been had Walsh Unrown a splitter
at the same height as LajOie figured
he would.
Joe" Jackson is also a wonderful
natural batter. He was ripe when re
first came up to the big Big League and
Joined the Athletics in 1SCS. Jackson
was born a sticker, has always been
ripe since he has been strong enough
to swing a bat and will be able to
bust EN- long after his legs and arms
wear out 1t is the way with all men
of his type. They retain their batting
ability after their other Big League
qualities have been frayed out. Look at
Mike Donlin and even LajOie, who is
beginning to slow up OIL his legs. but
who wings the ball as hard as ever
But jackson, TO my mind. loses q lot
Of hits he would get If he studied out
the game. For instance, he cannot tell
any one else how to bat. He doesn't
know himself how he hits. or when he
is going to hit. or where he will hit
the ball.
