About this time things began to bap-

the Philly bench warmers yelled It
the startled Lavender, who under-
stood their meaning and hustled over
to third. base. Bt'aubfield then called
him out for running out of line.
Moran presented the argument to

‘ only be called out for running out 01‘

made no attempt to cidestep any one.
Toner upheld this point. .
