What reading level is Base-Ball book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before the enactment of the rule confining the coachers to a limitedspace the coacher at third base sometimes played a sharp trick on thesecond baseman. When the catcher threw the ball, the coacher starteddown the base-line toward home, and the sec-mid baseman, seeing onlyimperfectly, mistook him for the runner and returned the ball quickly tothe catcher. The result was that the runner from first trotted safely tosecond, the runner at third remained there, and everybody laughed exceptthe second... baseman. In fielding ground-hits the second baseman, because of his being so farremoved from the bat, has a better chance to "judge" a hit. He is ableeither to advance or recede a step or more to meet the ball on a highbound; and on account of the short throw to first he may take moreliberties with such a hit; it is not absolutely necessary that he fieldevery ball cleanly, because he may fumble a hit and still make his play. In general, however, he should meet a hit as quickly as possible, sothat if fumbled he may have the greatest amount of time to recover andthrow.
