 " The Nationals got onto Getzein in the fourth inning and batted him all over the field . In the fifth inning they kept up the slugging until Getzein said he was ill , and Manager Hanlon wanted the Nationals to allow Getzein to retire , claiming that he was too sick to play . Baker , captaining the home club , said he would call a doctor and have him examine Getzein , and if the latter was really sick he would probably allow the change to be made . Dr. Bond , who happened to be present , was called on , and he examined the pitcher , while the crowd guyed Getzein terribly . The doctor announced that he did not consider Getzein sick , only discouraged at the pounding he had received , and that he would be able to finish the game . "
