Plays That Puzzle
by BILLY EVANS

The infield fly rule often makes
trouble because. after all, it Is simply
the judgment Of the umpire. "A high
wind, tall fly ball and rather slow
base runner caused an umpire to be
the leading actor in mob scene at a
ners on first and second and no one
out. The batsman hit q fly ball to
center field. When it started the UNI
pire was positive it would carry well
into the outf1eld. The wind carried
the ball back into infield territory
The ball finally came down without
any fielder touching it. 1t struck the
baserunner, standing on second, on
the back and rolled into center field.
The umpire called that runner out.
The team in the field contended the
hit was an infieId fly and that the
batsman should also be called out. The
team at bat insisted that since the
runner was hit while standing on the
bag, which was necessary to keep
from being doubled up, he should be
exempt from being called out because
he was hit by a batted ball. What
about it?
Base Runner Was Out.
II the umpire did not believe the fly
ball could be handled by an infielder,
that eliminated any possibility of it
being called an infield fly. The UNI
pire, in declaring the base runner out
who was hit by the batted ball while
standing on second. rendered the cor
rect decision. The fact that he was
standing on second base at the time
made no difference, as he must avoid
the batted ball. 1t is impossible to
rule fly ball an irfeld fly and also
declare a runner out who is hit by
such ball That would be a conflict
of rules, as the batsman is entitled
to first base whenever a base runner
is declared out for being hit by his
batted ball.

SCHEDULE is MAIN
TOPIC BEFORE A. A.

CHICAGO, February 15.-When the
club owners of the American Associa-
ton met here today to arrange for the
1921 season, Indications were that a
schedule calling for 1853 games would
be adopted, although some of the club
owners favor a 154-game schedule.
The season will open April Is.
Besides disposing of the schedule,
the club owners will confirm their de-
cision, in a formal vote, to refuse the
privilege Of the draft to the major
leagues.
1.-The draft price offered in the new
agreement is not consistent, and I can
not see how any class AA organization
can accept a $4,000 draft price for it's
players when $4,000 is to be paid for
player from the class A leagues" said

Just how the thing will be worked
out may not at this time be told. ex-
cept to say that hereafter neither the
public. nor. in fact, the ninety three
referees upon the New York state Ii
cense list, will know until shortly be-
fore important bouts are held just who
the third man in the ring is to be. So
far as that goes the dope is that this
rule will shortly be applied to every
bout.
Perhaps this will answer the ques-
ton which SO many have been asking
since the Britton-Ted Lewis bout.
namely: Why was Dick Nugent
brought way down from Buffalo to act
as arbiter in the ring when so many
referees were available right at hand?
AS a matter of fact it does answer
the question. 1t has been noted that
in the case Of every top-line fight held
in New York certain gentry have
shown more interest than seemed war
ranted in the identity of the referee
who was to work.
Evening star., 1921-02-15

This is not to say that gamblers
have their collars around the neck of
any ring offici al-the New York COM
missioners have said nothing to indi-
cate that this is the case. and there
is no reason for believing that such
progress has been made by the money
elements who follow boxing: none the
less, the commission is taking no
chances.
Speculation as to who the referee
would be was especially keen in the
case of the Britton-Lewis go. And,
of course. the local referees were
standing in line waiting for the call.
Nugent did a good job; no one can
say anything else. But the marked
factor in his work was that he never
laid hands upon either fighter i'll che
clinches. His mere word Break"
was sufficient to separate the battlers;
it came by pleasing contrast to the
wrestling tactics of many New York
referees in prying clinched fighters
apart.
