The infield was hard and rather
tough Sunday, as il was Saturday.
The result was that Bill Wamby. the
Sox second-sacker. had two hard-hit
balls shoot through his legs without

The center field problem which has
caused Manager McGraw of the New
York Giants much worry for several
years has been solved by the addition
Of Billy Southworth of the Boston
Braves.
"Southworth will be the regular
centerfielder of the Giants says Me-
Graw. He has no opposition for the
job and will not alternate with any
other player simply because he is a
left-handed batsmaR.y
That seems to settle it. Last sea-
son Jimmy O'Connell, Casey StengeI
and Bill Cunningham operated in cen
ter field for the Giants.
Southworth has a bad knee that
may trouble him If put too to severe
a test. Such happening would
cause McGraw 10 change his plans,
but he is fairly well fortified.

Question Runner on first and sec
ond. Catcher tries to get the runner
at first mapping. He throws the ball
TO the first baseman and the latter,
trying to tag the runner, runs his arm
under the runners leg, lifting his foot
from the base. One umpire called il
out and one safe. What was it?
Answer: Umpire was justified in
calling the runner safe If he was sat
isfied the fielder interfered with him
and the decision should have been
made by the field umpire.
Question Runner is on his way to
third after q ball has been hit to the
ohtfield and the, outfielder. in try
ing TO throw TO third to get him, hits
the runner with the ball. The UNI
pire calls the runner ont for inter-
ference although the runner had his
back to the play. Was the umpire
right?
Answer: No. 1t is evident that a
runner does not interfere with a play
of this kind that he cannot see.
Question Runner on first. Batter
hits 10 shortstop. The latter threws
to second but the second baseman is
not on the base. Second baseman fig
ures that il he goes to the base he
will be too late 10 get the batter
and throws TO first. Runner remains
on first all the time. First baseman
touches the base and then the run
ner. Umpire will not give a double
play. Was he right?
Answer: Yes. When the first base
man touched the base the batter was
out and the runner at liberty to hold
the base. Had he caught the ball and
first touched the runner and then
the base it would have been a double
play.
