Text | The National League has an array of 140 players and the army of the Players' League counts 127. The following figures will show where the forces in both armies are drawn from (the Brooklyns and Cincinnatis, of the National League, brought almost their entire teams from the American Association): Nat. League Players' League From National League.................... 37 81 From American Association......... 36 26 From International League 5 6 From Western Association 9 3 From other leagues and amateurs 53 11 … A careful student of the list of players of both organizations will come to the conclusion that of the 140 players in the National League 61 are first-class, and that the Players' League shows 75 first-class players in its total number of 127. |
