[Chicago vs. Indianapolis 5/25/1877] Warner hit sharply to third, and died at first, Houtz running home on the throw. Spalding [first baseman] fielded back to Smith [catcher] in time to touch the runner, but a reckless slide carried Houtz’s heel upon the home-plate, while Smith punched the vacant air. The umpire allowed the tally on a call for judgment, and tremendous cheering rent the air.
