CINCINNATI REDS III
 
1887 - At American Park, umpire Tim Hurst makes a decision against the home team in the 2nd inning of game 2 and a fan rolls an empty beer glass onto the field. Hurst picks it up and throws it back into the stands and hits and seriously hurts an innocent fan. A patty wagon arrives and Hurst is arrested for assault and battery and will receive a suspension for the incident. Red Bittman takes his place behind the plate and the game is called at the end of 6 with the score tied at 4 apiece.
