Each team was captained by, well, a Captain, and each Captain captain inserted himself as leadoff hitter. The box shows a nine-player, nine-inning game [or maybe eight] with a three-out side-out rule. [There seem to have been no outs recorded in one nine-run half-inning, but let’s not be picky.] Captain Martin’s D Company rushed out to an 18-2 lead and coasted to a 40-15 win over Captain Logan’s H Company.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A handsome account of the game’s context, with the box score, is found in John W. Kuhl, “The Game,” &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Military Images&lt;/span&gt;, Volume 25, Number 3 (November/December 2003), pp. 19-22. Provided by Michael Aubrecht, May 15, 2009. The article’s author reports that the box score appeared in the regimental history but does not give a further source. Sadly, both captains were to be killed at Gettysburg in a matter of weeks. The regiment’s history is Thomas D. Marbaker, &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;The History of the Eleventh New Jersey Volunteers from its Organization to Appomattox&lt;/span&gt; (MacCrellish and Quigley, Trenton, 1898).
