The players were members If the lead
ing New York families, and engaged in
the sport a. a pastime. A bcvy Of town
bellies in the group Of spectators made
the occasion seem like social function
The field was marked off into the base
ball diamond SO familiar today. None Of
the players gore gloves, masks. or pro
tcct0rs. Ii was the custom for the batter
10 say where he wanted the ball thrown
The pitcher, or "giver,r as he was then
called, delivered il with an undcrhand
toss, according to the rules Of the game
Ii was thought that the pitcher had an
unfair advantage over the batter when
be threw the ball overland. hence the
rule. The catcher stood at a safe distance
behind the batter, ready to catch the ball
on the bound The rules dictated that IL
he caught the third strike on the first
bound the batter was out; otherwise h.
must throw to first base to put him out
Likewise, the fielders, or scouts were
permitted 70 catch hits on the first
bound Three outs retired the side. The
team that first scored Il runs. or ~aces. :
regardless Of the number ~ innings
played, was accounted the winner. After
the game, the players resorted TO one of
the famous taverns of the day where
the victors had a dinner az the expense
of the vanquished.
