Date of Game Friday, July 4, 1884
Location Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico
Description

Snodgrass, "Deference and Defiance in Monterrey" says that (American) railroad workers "allegedly" played a game on July 4, 1884, just outside the city. Confused with 7-4-89 game [which see]?

The Daily Arkansas Gazette, May 25, 1897, reports that the local Little Rock team lost to the Topo Chico BBC of Monterrey 17-12 "yesterday." Topo Chico was a resort hotel that catered to Americans, near Monterrey. The club was composed of Hispanic Mexican nationals, and was touring the US. A box score of one games with the names of club members, can be found in the St. Louis Globe-Dispatch, June 6, 1897
