[Knickerbocker vs. Excelsior 9/1/1868] [ten on a side] It was not a first nine game, neither was it a second nine contest; it was a meeting between the veterans of the two clubs, and, as will be seen by the names in the subjoined score, quite a number of the old boys were on hand. Old Joe Leggett, once the famous catcher of the Excelsiors, captained his side in masterly style.
