Description

Howell, "Northern Sandlots" p. 23 says a club of this name existed in 1853.

The New Brunswick 1864 Almanac, p. 113, lists the St. Johns BBC, George S. DeForest, President.

1853 seems awfully early for a baseball club. Could this be a misprint for 1858? The St. John city directories for 1869-70 and 1870-71 say this club was formed Sept. 20, 1858.

Comment

In the Canadian government archives, there are several mentions of the barrack grounds in Saint John's (and Ottawa) being used in the 1870s as a base ball field. See https://recherche-collection-search.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/Home/Search?q=%22base+ball%22&DataSource=Archives&num=25&start=0&enviro=prod&DateBucket=1870-1879

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.
