Text	[Star first vs second nines 4/19/1862] We would advise Kelly and Skaats to let the bases alone, for here is small chance of getting any player out after he has reached his base, by throwing there, and there is a great chance that by an over-throw the player will get his run. Although both these pitchers are very quick in throwing to the bases, yet they did not succeed in getting out a single man, but, on the contrary, each over-threw the first base, and made at least half a dozen baulks between them. Let the bases alone, is our advice, and if you will content yourselves with delivering the ball to the bat with regularity, and with the velocity which your are both capable of, you do all that is required of a pitcher.
