UMPIRE PROTECTS PROPERTY
PurposeIy Miscalled Play to Prevent
One Manager From Tearing
Down Stands.

Two semipro ball teams were play
ing at the Chicago Nationals park
last year, and Pat Piper was doing
the announcing. One of the squads
got a man to third, and they tried the
squeeze play.
The fellow On third failed to run
in on the bunt, so the catcher hurled
toward first. In some way or other
the umpire got in the way and the
ball hit him.
After a long argument he decided
that the runner go back to third and
the batter hit over again.
Later on the umpire asked Pat what
he thought of the decision. Piper said
he believed it was wrong, that the
umpire was a part of the ball game
and when the apple hit him the run
should have counted.
Eyes, l suppose you're right" re-
piled the official. "But the other man
ager is a hard guy. If / had decided
that way he would have wrecked the
ball park. l vas merely protecting
property"
