| Description | Coon's "Columbia: Colossus on the Hudson" (1947) says that in 1858, Charles King, son of Columbia College's president, organized youngsters at the Columbia grammar school into a team called the Uncas. They played on one of the college lots on 49th Street, where Radio City Hall sits. Since the reminisce mentions "soaking" the game they played may not have been the NY Rules game. |

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.
