| Description | (TIE - return match – 8 innings, on account of darkness) (NYC: “That beautiful arena in which so many sharp contests have been played in this game of games—the Elysian Fields, Hoboken—was again filled to repletion … Neither club, however, fulfilled the expectations of the visitors, the game being for them a very tame one, and finally, or rather at the eighth innings, resulted in a tie, although the Knickerbockers had completed their ninth innings for seven runs, and the Empire had scored 5 runs with one hand out.”) |
