[from answers to correspondents] A fly ball was knocked to centre field and caught by fielder and returned to catcher, before runner, who was on third base, could get home. The runner saw he would not have time, and turned around, ran back to third base, and the caught between bases. Who gets credit for the assistance, and can there be two men credited with an assistance on same out? … The centre fielder is credited with putting one player out and an assistance, and the catcher with an assistance, the fielder who ran the player out being credited with a put out.
