Description

Chicago Tribune, July 11, 1875: "Norwood... The Base-Ball Club played the Irving Park boys on the 3rd..." Norwood (now Norwood Park) is on the northwest edge of Chicago. Irving Park is an area now on the northwest side of Chicago. From the article it is unclear whether Irving Park had an organized team, or whether the Norwood team played some men living in the Irving Park area.

The Chicago Inter Ocean, May 29, 1877, reports that the Niles BBC failed to appear after challenging the Norwood Park club.
