Text | [Haymaker vs. Keystone 9/7/1869] the Haymakers and Keystone of this city played a social game this afternoon [9/7/69] on the grounds, Seventeenth-st. and Columbia-ave. The terms of the original challenge stated that they should play a series of match games, the first of which was played in Troy, the Haymakers winning by 22 runs. The second game of the series should have been played here to-day [9/7/1869], but the Keystones, wishing to play Cope, who was not entitled to play until Sept. 3 [sic], and the Haymakers not consenting to play with him, the Keystones presented the Haymakers with a ball, which gives them the second game of the series. |
