Bitterness Between Players Halts Series Game
A stormy Baltimore crowd watched a tense National League game between McGraw led New York and Baltimore. Disputes over revenue shares and a near cancellation colored the affair with loud exchanges and a near abandonment of the series. Emslie’s ninth inning call ended Baltimore’s rally as McGraw, Reitz, Brouthers turned early double plays and Van Haltren made a key grab in the fourth. Captains Ward and Robinson starred in the field while New York rooters sang through the stoppages.
