Description

Porter’s Spirit of the Times (2): “The prevailing epidemic in this the ‘Flour’ City, at present, appears to be base-ball.  Before this year, such a thing as any kind of out-door game, was scarcely thought of.  In the Spring, the Flour City Club was organized, soon after followed the Live Oak and University Clubs, and then the Geneva Valley, Olympic, Hickory, Havelock, Excelsior, Married Mens’, No. 1, Young America, and I might say others too numerous to mention.  PSOT June 26, July 3, 1858

Win/Loss Records As Far As We Now Know

Warning: Users should not rely on a team's won-loss record as a reflection of its "standing" among all base ball clubs. Team schedules were not balanced, and a good record against mostly weak opponents does not signify a leading club.
