BILLY EVANS SOLVES BASEBALL PROBLEMS
(Written Especially for This Paper by the Famous American
League Umpire.)
When the umpire Is hit by a thrown ball while In fair territory,
trouble Is always sure to result. Two years ago such n P" "J

discussion. Last year it came up twice In tne
American league and each time It started a great
deal of argument for and against the ruling as
rendered. Perhaps nothing makes nn umpire more
peevish than to be hit by either n batted or thrown
ball. The average Judge of play figures that he
should always be able to keep, away from such
iV WI happenings, but occasionally It is utteny iiiipu.u.r.

heavy rainstorm saved them from rough treat-
innnt TtWt I'll HQ U'PrP needed to win and one to
tie for the home team when It came to bat for the Inst half of the
ninth. The first two men were easy outs. The next batter hit ror
three bases. With two balls and two strikes on him. the following
batter hit a difficult grounder to the right of the shortstop. That
player made a beautiful stop and a hurried throw. It Is question
able If a good throw would have beaten the runner, but this throw, a
poor one, struck the umpire, who wns standing In the vicinity of first
base ready to render a decision, squarely on the back. The ball ca
romed off the arbitrator toward the stand. The man on third scored
easily and the bntfr raced to third. The crowd was wild; the score
having been tied. t saw visions of victory.
At this stage of the proceedings, the umpire at the plate, who was
In no way connected with the mix-up, took n hand in the affair. What
the umpire did made the crowd decidedly sore, and what happened
afterwards made the fans still sorer. At this stage of the game the
rainstorm which had been threatening all afternoon broke loose.
What do you suppose the umpire did that so peeved the crowd?
Answer to Problem.
The umpire was forced to send the runner back to third, and make
the batter hit over, the count being the snme, two balls and two strikes,
which it was before he had hit the ball to the shortstop. Section 4 of
rule 55, which covers this situation, says: "The base runner shall
return to his base without liability to be put out If the person or
clothing of the umpire interfere with the catcher In an attempt to
throw, or the umpire be struck by a thrown ball by the catcher or
other fielder to Intercept a base runner." It has been argued that the
batter Is not a base runner and that this rule does not apply. That Is
wrong, for the batter becomes a base runner Just as soon as he hits
the ball. The rule, I think. Is faulty, for what Is there to prevent a
fielder, seeing the winning or tlelng run going across the plate, from
Intentionally throwing the ball at the umpire, with the hope that It
will hit him and make the play dead?
