Text	[Nationals of Washington vs. Irvingtons 10/25/1867] Studley would have had another run but for an illegal decision by the umpire. Studley was on his third, when a ball passed Buckley [catcher] and was stopped by the crowd. Studley seeing Walters [pitcher] leave his position, and knowing that the rules required the pitcher to receive all balls stopped by outsiders within the lines of his position, ran home; but the ball Buckley passed in to Walters was held by him at home base, and Studley was touched and erroneously decided out. Pitchers should remember to keep within the lines of their position to receive the ball whenever, in any way, stopped by the outside crowd.
