The Glens Falls Post Star, Sept. 29, 1923 published the reminiscences of an old-timer which claimed that Glens Falls had a  baseball club 1865-70, as well as the Pardo club staring in 1875. The article mentions their star pitcher, Lime Derby, who is said to have later played for the Haymakers of Troy.
