Born April 17, 1820 in New York, New York [Died] July 12, 1892. Honolulu, Hawaii. The man who created the original baseball rules. One of the founders of the Knickerbocker Baseball Club, an amateur baseball team in New York, and a surveyor by trade. In 1845, he established the rules as the head of a committee within the team. It is said that this rule was first adopted in 1846, in a game between the Knickerbockers and the New York Nine in Hoboken, New Jersey. Based on Robin Carver's "Book of Sports" (1834), Cartwright introduced several important new regulations. A representative example of this was the introduction of a method in which the defensive team throws the ball to the base when putting out a runner, instead of the traditional method of throwing the ball to hit the runner, which made it possible to use a hard ball. Cartwright is also said to have set the base distance at 90 feet (27.432 m). Cartwright |
[生]1820.4.17. ニューヨーク,ニューヨーク [没]1892.7.12. ハワイ,ホノルル 現行の野球ルールの原型をつくった人物。ニューヨークのアマチュア野球チーム,ニッカーボッカー野球クラブの創設者の一人で,本職は測量技師。1845年チーム内に設けられた委員会の長としてルールを制定。翌 1846年ニュージャージー州ホーボーケンで行なわれたニッカーボッカー対ニューヨーク・ナイン戦で,このルールが初めて採用されたといわれる。ロビン・カーバーの "Book of Sports"(1834)を下敷きにしつつ,いくつかの重要な新規定を導入。走者をアウトにする際,ボールを投げて走者にあてる従来の方法に替え,守備側の者が塁にボールを送る方法を導入したのがその代表例で,これにより硬球の使用が可能になった。また,塁間を 90フィート(27.432m)に定めたのもカートライトとされている。 カートライト
