Bull Perrine edit

  • ... that minor league baseball umpire Bull Perrine was assaulted on the field twice within two weeks in 1905?

  • The only thing holding this back is that the line "In that same year, he umpired in Cy Young's 500th career win." needs to have a citation. I took the liberty of linking the article in the hook. Nominator/coauthor has had less than 5 DYKs, so no QPQ review required. Miyagawa (talk) 19:22, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Done. Does the hook need editing? ALT1 ... that baseball umpire Bull Perrine was attacked on the field twice during minor league games in April 1905? Whatever you guys think would make the sentence the least awkward. EricEnfermero | Howdy! 20:26, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
  • The alt is much better. Good to go with it. Miyagawa (talk) 23:29, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
