Description

(PSOT (2): “The Champions, who had been beaten in both matches last year by the Young Americas, were determined to “take ‘em” in this match, in which they have succeeded admirably, …. The result caused no little excitement in Yorkville and vicinity, as it was expected the Champions would have a hard struggle. … This [Champion] nine have improved wonderfully. The pitcher, Slatery, and the catcher, W. J. Kelly, are undoubtedly the best in the Junior clubs of this city or Brooklyn.”)
