Interference Penalties for Batsman at Plate
When a batsman interferes with a catcher or play at the plate three rules apply. If a runner on third and one or no outs and interference occurs, the runner is out. If two outs, the batsman is out. In other base situations, the batsman is out and no bases may be run, with runners returning if fewer than two outs.
Sisler Streak Tops Cobb In Consecutive Hit Run
George Sisler extended his streak with hits in 41 straight games, surpassing Ty Cobb's prior record by one game. The piece compares their runs, hits, and extra-base totals, noting Sisler’s 78 hits and 13 doubles to Cobb’s 12 doubles and seven triples. It also highlights Joe Bush halting Sisler’s streak and recent eye trouble recovery.
