[Athletic vs Mutual 6/12/1874] The umpire allowed too many players to act as “coachers.” The rules prohibit any but the captain and one assistant from acting as coachers. In this game, however, Anson made himself prominent, and kept too near the base-lines, as did others of the nine. This, umpires should stop.
