Text | The Athletic nine is unquestionably one of the strongest nines in the country. They are all good batsmen and sharp fielders, and McBride is one of the most successful pitchers there is, and it is evident, therefore, they possess all the elements necessary to constitute a first class team, and to conquer whom must be a task of no little difficulty. Unfortunately for them, however, they are such a set of inveterate growlers and fault-finders, that they, unless in Philadelphia, very seldom carry with them the sympathy or good wishes of the lovers of base ball in any city which they may visit. |
