Barnes protested. Belshaw states that

His explanation Of the affair is as
follows: With the bases full Jones

two men crossed the plate. The third
runner who had been on first when
the ball was hit, came around third,
and wac on his way home when the
ball was thrown in from the outtieid,
went b. the catcher, and hit the club
mascot on the sidelines. The Mineral
Wells catcher recovered the ball after
1t hit the mascot, and threw TO the
pitcher who put the Ardmore third
runner out at the plate. The conten-
tion Of Barnes, which Is believed is
correct is to the effect that when the
ball hit the mascot. it became d

According to the Wilson baseball
rules, "a block is = battled or thrown
