[Mutuals vs. Eckfords 7/3/1867] Hatfield led off with a “fluke” on which he made his first, the aforesaid hit–well known to cricketers–being an accidental hit close to home-base, which sent the ball between catcher and third-base, allowing the striker to reach his base before a fielder could get at the ball.
