[Knickerbocker BBC vs. Manhattan Cricket Club 11/7/1872] As the Manhattans did not come on the field as early as the Knickerbockers–it not being cricket-like to be on hand at the hour appointed–they had to borrow aid from the Knicks to make up their side in the [base] ball match, twelve players on each side taking part in the game.
