Text | We have to comment in terms anything but praiseworthy on the action of C. Bomeisler, not only in his obstinate refusal to permit members of the clubs to save time in passing up passed balls to the catcher when no one was on base, or in cases of foul balls, but also in his trying to irritate the catcher, by chafing him in the last inning. Bomeisler’s remark ridiculing the idea of courageous conduct in an exciting contest, was a much out of place as was his whole conduct on the ground on the occasion in question. We trust he will never again be the means of marring the harmony of a match as he was in this game. We regret to have occasion to allude to him thus. We simply do it to prevent any recurrence of the same thing elsewhere. Every player in a match renders himself amenable to public comment, the mantle of privacy being thrown off on all such occasions. |
