[from an interview of William McLean] ...such catchers as Nava and Buck Ewing are in the habit of taking a ball from away out and quickly bringing it down in front of them as though it had come straight over the bag, and kicking when we call a ball on them. I tell you, ball players are up to all sorts of tricks, and nothing but the closest watch will keep us from being beaten by them. St., also The Sporting Life 8/6/1884
