The Play
When batsmau is hit by a slowly pitched
ball there is usually an argument over right
of the batsman to take first base.
On such play last summer the ruling of
umpire in granting batsman first base and
permitting the winning run to be forced
over the plate. caused one team to leave the
field, FORGETTING the game.
With bases filled and two balls and two
strikes the batsman. the pitcher tried to
fool the batsman by slipping him slow
ball.
II was a slow curve on the inside, that
the batsman attempted to avoid, in the opin-
ion of the umpire. When ball Just grazed
the batsman's person, the umpire granted
the batter first base forcing the winning
run over.
The team in field contended a batter had
no right to first base when hit by slowly
pitched ball.
What about itY
The Interpretation
The general public and many major league
players think n batsman has no right to
first base when hit by d slowly pitched ball.
That is an erroneous impression.
The batsman 10 always entitled TO first
base If, in the opinion of the umpire, he
makes every effort to get out of the way of
badly pitched ball, regardless of whether
it Is slow or fast ball.
The umpire made the proper ruling In
granting batsman first and permitting run
ner from third to score. since the bases were
filled and he was of the opinion that bats
man made every effort to avoid being hit
