He says: “The rule will make baiting heavier, but it will have one fault, viz., that it will increase bunting. Last year many objected to the bunt and there Was a deal of discussion in regard to abolishing it altogether. Instead of doing this. bunting is encouraged. Under the new rnle a pitcher will be so far away from the plate thatit will be next to impowible for bim to field a well-executed bunt, and the batting is apt to be so lively that | a third baseman wili not care to play up very close to the batsman. Then. too, the rule not charging with a time at bat foran infield Bit that advances a base runner but retires the batsman will put a premium on bunting. The abolition of the flat bat will not help a great deal. Another objection to the rule is that the pitcher will be enabled to hold a runner very | closely to first base.
