Text | [Atlantic vs. Eckford 7/21/1862] [Manolt on third base, two outs] Beach now went to the bat, but struck the ball just outside the foul-ball line; and though the umpire called foul, and loudly, too, the moment the ball was struck, the voice of the applauding crowd, and the calls made by the players, prevented Manolt from hearing the cry of foul, and before he could get back the ball, which [third baseman] Smith had passed to [first baseman] Start, thereby putting Beach out at first base [this is incorrect], was quickly passed by Start to the pitcher, and by him to Smith again, Manolt being the third hand out instead of Beach; and being very much “put out” was Manolt. |
