Description

Bob Burke, "Baseball in Oklahoma City" (2003), p. 7, says the first organized baseball team in Oklahoma City was sponsored by the Jennison brothers and was called the Jennison Pirates. They "played their first game on June 19, 1891, against the Purcell Chickasaws." W. B. Jennison was manager and 2nd baseman. Harry Jennison was the catcher.

Purcell OK is about 55 miles S of Oklahoma City. Its population is about 5,900.

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.
