[Philadelphia vs. Brooklyn (NL) 4/28/1890] Corkhill carried off the fielding honors for his club by two great catches. One of them was a running catch of a hard hit by Thompson, which, had it got past the outfield, would have been a homer.

The crowd compelled John to acknowledge their appreciation of his work. He did it by raising his cap just about half an inch.
