Nick Name Gopher State Base Ball Club
Earliest Known Date Wednesday, June 5, 1867 -- no later than June 5, 1867
Location Rochester, MN, United States
Description

Paper of date below reported the score (with runs and outs for each player) of a game played the previous Wednesday (June 5) between the Gopher State Base Ball Club and the Rochester Base Ball Club. The Gopher State Club won 39-22.


note: a number of challenges between these two teams were noted in the Rochester Post at least a month earlier but this is the first game with a recorded score. So it is quite likely that both clubs were organized previous to May 1867.

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.
