Description

The Dyea Trail, June 25, 1898, headlined "A Great Game of Ball," reports that Dyer is to play Skagway "tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock on the beach..." 
The article gives a roster of both teams.

The Juneau "Daily Alaska Dispatch" May 21, 1900 reports that the Skagway "boys" (ages 15-17) challenge Juneau boys to a game. The Fairbanks "Daily News-Miner," June 1, 1910, reports than in the annual three-cornered baseball tournament at Whitehorse, the Juneau club won over Whitehorse, Skagway and a team from Douglas Island.

Skagway AK (1900 pop. 1,800) is about 110 miles N of Juneau.

Whitehorse (Yukon Terr., Canada) is about 110 miles N of Skagway.

Douglas Island is across the strait from Juneau.
