Text | [Philadelphia vs. Atlantic 5/19/1873] ...Addy was on third, with two men out, when Meyerle allowed the ball to touch his bat, and Addy ran home on the ball passing the catcher. The ball was a “dead foul;” and when the rule was explained to the umpire, he properly sent Addy back to third. It must be remembered that any obstruction that can be avoided must be regarded as willful. |
