Floods exact idea. To set him right

his views:
read your article on the Intentional

would have 1t be. still 1t was presented
to the public in a very forcible manner,
and may possibly be the means of
rules governing this particular play.
In your letter to the public you
stated that 1t was my suggestion "that
batsman be retired on three strikes
as at present, but absolutely NO
attention to any balls be paid.
This, 1 think, would be unfair to the
batter. and would give the pitcher n
decided advantage. 1t would. I think.
result in too many strike-outs for the
pitcher, as under such q rule he could
waste rs many balls as he pleased and
could rattle batter by keeping him
NJ the plate by pitching wide balls, and
occasionally slip one over the plate
until he had accumulated three strikes
Such was not my intention.
MY suggestion was that balls and
strikes remain just as they are. and
when the fourth ball is called that. In
stead of the batter going to first base.
he remain In the box and take the
place Of the next batter who follows
him under the present rules-that is,
the four balls would wipe out whatever
strikes had been called ON the batter,
the same as Mt present.
Under my suggestion a pitcher would
have to strike out batter under the
same rules as they exist today-that

balls would be called.

I have read with much interest your

why not do away with the batter's 8

till they meet. and allow the batter
to stand anywhere he wants to In
front Of this line. providing he is out"
If he willfully interferes with the
catcher-a matter to be left to the
discretion Of the umpire.
The pitcher would have pretty hard
time giving an intentional base on
balls under such an arrangement.
Also the rule that the batter Is "at
at any time after he comes up in his
turn and touches the plate with his
bat unless time has been called by the
umpire. This would stop the practice
annoying the pitcher by stepping out
Of the box. There would be no box to
step out of. OF course. base runners
should be allowed to return to their

IN trying to remedy the intentional

to the umpire Is to decide whether or
not tho pass Is intentional. It would

would relieve the umpire of such
