V00 WIDED

 

 

When a situation in baseball pre-
sents itself that isn't definitely cov-
ered by the rules. the umpire must
call upon fair play and common
sense in reaching a decision.

Such a happenlnz came up the
other day in a game between Brook-
iyil and St. Louis of the National
League. It has been the subiect of
so much comment and so many peo-
ple have writtenrnto about it. that
l deem it worthy of discussion.

it seems Outfleider Zach Wheat
of. Brooklyn club knocked the ball
over the fence in fair territory. Such
o. hit entitled Jilin to a home run.
All that was necessary for the cir-
cult drive to be officially recorded
was that Wheat touch each base.
according to the rules.

As Wheat neared second base he
suddenly collapsed. At first. the
news was flashed that he had our-
fered a "chariey-horse." JThia is a
painful muscular ailment that prac-
tically paralyzes the entire lo: and
makes locomotion impossible.

Later it was give out that in run-
ning out the hit. W eat in some way
had dislocated his ankle.

O 0 0
They Both Cross Plate.

As Wheat lay on the ground. suf-
fering excruciatlnl pain. the ques-
tion arose as to how the situation
could be handled to conform to the
rules and have the home run of-
ficially scored.

At a conference between officials
and managers. it was decided that
Maranville should be substituted for
Wheat and take up the running out
of the hit where Wheat was forced

report. crossing the plate. *

Apparently in the minds of sev-
eral of the players there was some
question as to the lesailty of the
proceedings. so. after the substitution
of 'Marsnville ‘as pinch lunner.
Wheat himself hobbled around the
base.
' What about it? I have been asked
that question hundreds .of times since
the unusual happening came up. ‘

' s O O

Batter Must 'lbuch Bases.
When Wheat hit the ball over the
fence. the ball being in fair terri-
tory, he locally made a home run.
.The touching of the bases in such
cases is more or less a formality.
Rule 43. however. states that when
a batsman so hits the bail out or
playing territory, HE! must touch the
bases in their secular order.
The unexpected injury suffered by
Wheat in snaking the circuit. at first
made it appear as if it would be
physically taupe-ibis for him to live
up to the rule.

e s a

his Play Eaters Diameters
At this stage fair play must enter
into the proceedings and the um-
pire shoud permit a pinch runner
to complete the circuit. Or. he misht
suggest the players carry the iniured
athlete on their shoulders the rest
of theway and have him touch each
base with the good foot.
However, the permission of a

:pinch. runner is more logical and
_ perfectly fair. Boob Pinch runner
would. of course. immediately tales;

the resulsr lineup.
