Is yiROUND ruleg relative to ths backstop are seldom necessary In ths majors, although a rills is often required in the minors, because ths stand or backstop Is not the required ninety feet from the home plate, At the famous Polo grounds In New York a ruling on this point must be mads, as the press section, directly behind the plate, is not the required distance, in American league games. It has always been agreed "that a pitched ball striking the stand at the Polo grounds shall entitle ths runners to advents one bass. In a gams last year, with a runner on' first. the pitcher cut loose a badly pitched ball, which ths catcher partly blocked. The runner was off with ths pitch, as he was about to attempt a steal. The ball struck the starql and was recovered by the catcher on a quick rebound. , The base runner kept on to third, A perfect throw by the catcher retired him at that base, despite a desperate slide on his part. What is ths proper ruling? The American Teague umpire In charge of the game ruled that the runner, who was retired at third base, should be sent back to second. He held that the moment the- - ball struck the stand, which was not the required ninety feet Yrom - lia ruled-gbi- t the piste, the runner was entitled to second base,, that all action eeased the moment the ball struck the stand, and that play could not be resumed until the ball was returned to the - pitcher,- - standing n- hls- - propee position. That la the Interpretation placed on such a play by all American league umpires- - I understand ths National league umpires grant the runner or runners an additional base, but permit them to advance farther If they care to do so at their peril," I prefer calling the ball dead and suspending play. ' - - ' Round Nina.1 Lewis Jabbed a right to Britton's faoe. Hut Jack sent him back on with a right jolt to ths Jaw. Lewis was still wild. The men ran Into a clinch, while Lewis did better and managed to land two hard punches to Jack's stomach.
