Laaaddaaad ot 2222222 2] ‘ Speakingz of Sports § CEIFOPOPVELOTOVIITISIDO0R A lot of discussion centered about &n attempt to steal home made by “Goody" Preisser in the fourth in- ning of the Landers-Corbin game af Walnut Hill park last night: Preisser s running for Jagloski when he nade the attempt. He was called out it the plate by Umpire Jimmy Ma- her. As Frank Nestor wound up for the [ washington . 60 pitch, Preisser came tearing in. Chicago . . LB )stertag, catcher for Landers saw |Boston ...... 70 him coming and he stepped up to push Jack Wright, the batter, out of the way. Preisser slid in and Um- pire Maher waved him out. Along the sidelines, the discussion arose on whether Preisser should have been safe because of Ostertag's ac- tion or not. We knew of no rule at the time which would cover the situation but an investigation showed us’ morning that there is a rule to cover the exact situation. According 1o it, the catcher's action in stepping "p, was “Interference” and made his pitcher “halk,” giving the batter first base on the interference and bring- ing Preisser in on the “balk.” The rule covering the play is found in Section 21 of Rule 36. It is unled the rule “When base runners are out,” and it reads as follows: “In event a base-runner is trying 1o score from third base on a pitch- cd hall or the ‘squeeze’ play, a ‘balk’ and also an ‘interference’ shall be called if the catcher runs in front of the plate to catch the ball; and the runner shall be allowed to score and {he batsman be entitled to first base. In such event the same penalties must be imposed in case the catcher pushes the batsman out of the way, or tips his bat.” In the case in question, Ostertag did two things. He pushcd Wright out of the way and he camc out in front of the plate to catch the ball, No matter how long one plays or watches baseball, there is always something new that turns up. Jimmy Maher generally officiates at the &ames in which all of these knotty problems arise . To settle an argument arising out of a recent game, the rule on an in- fleld fly on which a batter is declared out is cited. The umpire declared an infield fly with & runner on first base | only and the case was argued from that point. The rule is found in sec- tion 8 of Rule 51 and is as follows: “Tf, before two hands are out, while first and second or first, sec- ond and third bases are occupied, he hit a fair fly ball, other than a line this NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WED Baseball Standing AMERICAN LEAGUE Games Yesterday Cleveland 6, Detroit 6. .
