[Hartford vs. Mutual 7/22/1876] The game did not actually commence until half-past four, because after beginning play at 4.15 “time” was called almost directly afterwards to change their catcher; for after Holdsworth had hit a beautiful grounder for his first base, a passed ball showed Harbidge's inability to play behind the bat, and Higham was called on to act in the position. Dick, however, put up sore hands,too, and so Allison had to dress, and Harbidge retired.
