Tells of Reason
For Game Protest
By LAWRENCE YOUNG
A hot controversy has resulted from an interpretation of the balk
rule number 8.05 in two games between Greenwood and Clinton
American Legion Junior baseball teams on two consecutive Friday
nights.
On June 17, at Joanna the guessing game and argument started.
In the bottom of the ninth inning with Greenwood leading 6-5 becatisi
of seven Clinton errors, Clinton started a rally that ended in a rhu
barb. Benji Timmons singled to start the rally. While “Peanut” Smith
was at the plate, Timmons stole
second and continued on to third
on Yates’ bad throw into center-
field. Smith then grounded out.
Timmons scored the tying run on
a wild pitch. Billy Sease walk
ed to continue the rally with on
ly one out. While June Raines

was at bat, Sease stole second
and reached third because of
the Greenwood catcher’s bad
throw into centerfield. This set
the stage for the rhubart>.
At this point Greenwood
changed its strategy. The strat
egy called for the intentional
passing of June Raines to first
base. Pete Yates, the Greemviod
catcher, made the mistake of
standing outside the catcher’s
box, which is forty-three inches
wide directly behind the plate,
in order to catch the balls to
walk Raines. On such a rare cir
cumstance as this, the plate um
pire did not call the balk on the
catcher . Since the intentional
walk to Raines put men on first
and third, Greenwood strategy
was to walk Cranford to load the
bases, hoping for a double play
to end the inning. When Cnyi
ford was batting, Pete Yates was
over three feet from the plate.
On the second ball to Cranford,
the plate umpire called time and
consulted the base umpire. On
the third ball to Cranford both
the plate umpire and the base
umpire called a balk because the
Greenwood catcher was out of
the catcher’s box. This brought
Sease home with the winning
run.
Our friend from across the Sa
luda River, Eddie Ervin, of the
Greenwood Index-Journal, called
for a code of ethics concerning 1
j this balk between these two
| rivals. The Greenwood catcher
actually received six chances to
abide by the rules before he was
i penalized by the balk. What
more could you ask for? Also,
maybe our friend should talk to
the Greenwood coach about his
code of ethics. If we are going
to second guess this ball game,
we should carry the second
guessing all the way. Actually,
Clinton should never have bat
ted in the bottom of the ninth.
All the six runs that Greenwood
made were scored because of
seven Clinton errors. If Clinton
had not made these errors, they
would have been victorious at
the end of the top of the ninth
by a score of 5-0. Did the Green
wood coach go to the mound and
say to the Clinton team, “Muchas
gratis for the six runs you gave
us’’? No, he did not, but he sure
ly started quite a controversy
over one run.
Last Friday night over at
Greenwood, the plate umpire
called three balks on the Clin
ton catcher because he jumped
out of the catcher’s box to catch
bad pitches and wild pitches,
balk on the Clinton pitcher and
when the umpire called the first
the fourth of the game. Hall be
gan the eighth inning by ground
ing out from the pitcher to first
base. Bennett then doubled.
Phillips singled Bennett home
and reached second on the throw
to the plate. With the pickoff
play on. Pitcher Billy Sease
wheeled to throw to second from
his stretched position, but held
1 the ball when the second base-
man was not at the second base
bag. The plate umpire called
this a balk and sent the runner
to third. Clinton then appealed
the play because this particular
play was not specifically stated
as a balk in section 8.05 of the
official rule book. Since the plate
umpire would not listen to the
appeal, Clinton finished the
game under protest.
Would our friend from across
the river call for a code of eth
ics on this game? It wouldn’t
matter how many words sports
writers print, the national game
of baseball wuold not lose its
color, pageantry, rhubarb, and
arguments.
At this date no decision has
been handed down on the pro
test of last Friday night’s game.
An appointed committee rules
on this protest. This committee
is appointed by Mr. Martin K.
Rosefield, Director of Junior
Legion Baseball for the state of
South Carolina.
