Is HE OUT?' YES
CRIES THE 'UNIP'
Peculiar Situation Which De-
veloped in New England
League Last Summer

One of the chief charms OF baseball.
according to a famous veteran are
the new plays and situations which
constantly arise in diamond battles.
1t is doubtful. however, il he ever
conceived of situation similar to
that which arose during a game play
ed in New England during the past
summer.
It was in the nth inning three
runners on the bases and none out
when a batter stepped to the plate.
Right at his heels came the next
player entitled to bat, who took posi-
tiou just a step or two away from
the batter's box. The batter hit a
sharp bounder directly at the pitcher
and dashed for first base while all
the runners raced around the bases
toward home.
1t appeared to be an easy matter
to throw out the player, attempting
to score from third, at the plate and
the pitcher promptly threw to the
catcher, who was all set to complete
the play. At this point, however, the
unusual happened. The man who
had been awaiting his turn at the
bat jumped into position and as the
ball shot across the plate took a
mighty swing at it driving the ball
far into the outfield for a home run;
five runs crossing the plate before
the ball could be retrieved.
Something resembling riot among
the players of the two teams and
the partisan spectators Immediately
DEVELOPED and there was rush for
the umpire. After much argument
~, rF,; n
sequent runs legally scored, basing
his decision upon the fact that both
the pitcher and catcher were in their
respective positions when the ball
was thrown up to the plate. Not sat-
isfied with this ruling the losing team
took the case TO high basebll auth
critics, who. after careful study
of the circumstances, reversed the
umpire's verdict. 1t was their de-
cision. which has generally been ac-
cepted as correct. that the runner
attempting to score from third, was
out owing to the interference of the
batter, who by hitting the ball thrown
to complete the play at the plate,
prevented the putout being accom-
phshed.
The rule governing this case is
found in the official baseball code
under rule Sc. section l52 which reads:
THE base runner is out; if with one
or no one out and a base runner on
third base. the batsman interferes
with a play being made az the home
plate"
With the runner out as the result
OF interference the situation after
the play is as follows: there are still
three men on base; one out and the
player who drove out the alleged
home run comes to bat in regular
turn his illegal hitting of the ball
having resulted in putting out the
base runner without affecting his
status as a batsman. \ somewhat
