There is a baseball historian from San Francisco named David Nemec. He may be the premier baseball authority in the country. And if you read his book on the history and evolution of baseball's rules, you will rephrase that statement about Evans. Evans is truly great, don't mistake what I am asserting, but Nemec's done research that Evans hasn't even considered.
Mr. Nemec's fascinating book about the evolution of the Official Baseball Rules:
