Text | [Boston vs. Baltimore 4/11/1887] The crowd were literally all over the field, and frequently some would even make a dash across the diamond itself, while the confused mass that entirely surrounded the players encroached largely over the foul lines on to fair ground just in rear of first and third bases. Of course it was impossible to play the game correctly under the circumstances, and many hits were such because the fielders were unable to jump over the heads of a living barrier. |
