Some improvements have been made at White Stocking park during the absence of the Chicago team. A large bulletin-board has been erected upon which will be painted in large figures, legible to all the spectators, giving the results of innings both here and in the League games played elsewhere. Additional cushions have been provided for use in the grand stand, this feature having proved very acceptable and popular. Chicago Tribune June 20, 1880

Some improvements have been made on the [Chicago] grounds during the absence of the Club, notably in following Cincinnati's example in the erection of a huge bulletin-board, placed in full view of all the spectators, where the results of innings, both on the grounds and in other League games, will be displayed. Additional cushions for seats in the Grand Stand have also been provided. These are rented out at five cents per game, and have proved to be a popular affair. Cincinnati Enquirer June 21, 1880
