My guess is that when it was stolen....er, evolved into baseball, the rule was changed to allow the BR to proceed at the quickest speed so they could brag to their girlfriends about how fast they are.

Okay, maybe the girlfriend bragging is a bit too much.

i was referring to the stolen/evolved initial version of baseball, known in those days as base ball. many places, at least in the north east, have base ball "leagues". ive played exhibition games at several county fairs and a tournament in OH years ago.
