Description	The New York Clipper, Oct. 15, 1859 reports on a Sept. 15th game at Portland between two Portland teams, the Portland and the Forest City, won by the former 38-22. The Portland Daily Press, Sept. 5, 1864, gives the box score of a game between the Forest City and the Osceola Clubs. A man from the Machigonne Club umpired. Is this another Portland club?

Win/Loss Records As Far As We Now Know

Warning: Users should not rely on a team's won-loss record as a reflection of its "standing" among all base ball clubs. Team schedules were not balanced, and a good record against mostly weak opponents does not signify a leading club.
