[Chicago vs. New York 8/13/1888] Richardson, the first batter, popped up a little fly back of second base, which Pfeffer, Ryan and Duffy ran for. Anson yelled “Pfeffer” three times, but the outfielders paid no heed to the call. They came up to Pfeffer's side and made overtures to nip the swiftly dropping ball. Pfeffer stepped to one side and the ball fell between the trio to the ground.
