N. E. Young, we regret to learn, as severed his connection with the Baltimore Club as business manager, on account of the interference of some of the directors with his management of that nine. Mr. Young, who enjoys the confidence and respect of the managers of all the professional nines, is a good disciplinarian and the Baltimore Club under his regime had a very successful career, but within the last six weeks they have had more defeats than victories, owing to the manner in which the nine has been changed in every game, and good players superseded by inferior. Mr. Wm. J. Davidson, the much respected Treasurer of the Baltimore Club, alone should be exempted from censure for the present loose management, that gentleman having given liberally of his means and time to advance the best interests of the club.

support for the ten-men game

Our B.B. friends will take notice that the day is not distant when a tenth man will be introduced, to play right short. This will balance the field, and make the game more complete. The slow and ignorant may pooh-pooh, but right short will come. Evening City Item October 1, 1872
