Captains or their assistants who engage in "coaching" base runners, must keep within the lines of their designated position, or if they attempt to coach a runner while standing outside of their position, or to run toward home base outside the lines of their position, they must be fined five dollars for each violation of the rule.
OPEN BETTING PROHIBITED.
Rule 58 prohibits open betting on all ball grounds of clubs governed by the rules of the National Agreement. The penalty for a violation of this rule is the forfeiture of the game which is being played when the rule is violated; and the Umpire must enforce this rule or be amenable to a prompt removal from his position.
NO UMPIRE TO BE INSULTED.
Rule 52 states that "the umpire is master of the field from the commencement to the termination of the game; and he is entitled to the respect of the spectators, and any person offering any insult or indignity to him must be promptly ejected from the grounds," under the penalty of a forfeiture of the game.
