Suspension Of a ball game because
Of rain or darknese causes moro ar
guments than any other happening
in base ball. This is due to q ques-
tion as to what is actually the score,
whether the score reverts to even
innings, and q score Of other possi-
bilities. I am inclined to think more
questions are asked me involving
the rule that covers such q suspen-
sion of play. than any other. So
that I can inteIligently discuss the
the rule that covers the points.
II the umpire call game at any
time after five innings have been
completed the score shall be that Of
the last equal innings played, except
that If the side second at bat shall
of innings, or before the compile
ton of an unfinished inning. at least
i, one run more than the side first at
bat, the score Of the game shall be
the total number OF runs each team
has made. Also if the team second
nings more than the team first at bat
has made in Ave innings. then it is q
legal game and scores as made stand.
The last part Of the rule IL always
clear. We will assume Boston and
the first inning Cleveland scores q run.
In five times at bat Boston fails to
score. When Cleveland comes to bat
for the last Of the fifth rain causes the
umpire to suspend play and finally calls
and Cleveland wins, to 0.
Several years ago the st. Louis club
was playing away from home. When
st. Louis went to bat for the first half
against the Browns. In that half Of the
inning George Sisler hit a home run.
1t was raining at start Of the inning
and when tho Browns finished their half
time, suspended play for thirty minutes
and then declared the game of because
it was still raining. Now. what was the
score Of that ball game? The papers
| carried it as to against the Browns
and gave the pitcher credit for a shut
| out. 1t took Ernest Lanigan, the stat
| istician. to dig up the error. II you
| look back over the rule you will note
| that it says. 'if the side second at bat
has scored more runs in an unequal
the total number Of runs made by each
team" In this game the team that op-
posed the Browns scored four runs in
five innings. while the Browns made
| Lanigan put 1t, the score was I to 1.
Sisler was entitled to his homer and
the pitcher opposing the Browns did not
pitch a shut-out. That is an interesting
angle.

not permitted in two of the eastern
