It was hard to find a young ball player in those days who had ambition to be anything but a pitcher. “But I'm blessed if you can find them now—that is, the pitcher who is a pitcher plus, the kind_the major leagues are looking for.

Never- theless, the first state champion- ship game was played this year, a silver bat and medals being the pennant of the time. The Eagles split, for the better interest of the game, in 1863, and their offshoot were the Pacifics, whose picture is here given. Wil- liam Shepard, their third base- man, writing reminiscently of games in 1861, said: “I well re- member a habit the gamblers among the spectators used to have, that surely savoured of the wild and woolly west. Just as a fly ball was dropping into a fielder’s hands, every gambler who had bet on the nine at the bat would discharge a fusillade from his six-shooter in an en- deavor to confuse the fielder and make him miss the ball.” But if Cartwright’s influence on western base ball is a matter of speculation, that of Martin F.
