In a rather confusing play Babe Herman hit a ball off the wall with the bases loaded and the Dodgers wound up with three men on 3rd base. Dazzy Vance who had somehow failed to score from 2nd was diving back into third with Chick Fewster standing on the bag already and Herman sliding in thinking he was getting a triple. While the umpires were trying to figure it out, Vance made a speech, "Mr. Umpire, fellow teammates, and members of the opposition. If you carefully peruse the rules of our national pastime you will find that there is one and only one protagonist in rightful occupation of this hassock - namely yours truly, Arthur C. Vance". And he was right. The other two were out.
