Excerpt from Base Ball for Beginners: Pitching Overhand; Correct Batting; The Hitting Step; The Level Swing; The Follow-Through; Correct Fielding

This approval not only gives boys under sixteen an official diamond and an official ball; it gives them official standing in Base Ball. Many municipal playgrounds will now put in boys' size diamond-s. For the first time in the history of Base Ball the American boy, under sixteen, has an official diamond, a ball and a standing of his own.

Not content with giving the boys of America all these things, Mr. Sheridan now gives them a book on Base Ball of their own. Mr. Sheridan says that he has but one request to make of the American boy: It is that he use the boys' size ball and the boys' size diamond, and play with dash and high spirit. Unless the boy uses the official boys' size ball, Mr. Sheridan despairs of his learning to play Base Ball.
