Description	The Montgomery Weekly Advertiser, May 7, 1867, reports that the Montgomery BBC was organized last Wednesday. Same May 21, 1867 gives the names of the players. Their early playing field was "just in front of Pope's Row, near the cemetery." Pope's Row is described in a book as near the cemetery, east of Lower Wetumpka Road, and now part of the City Lot. The Montgomery Advertiser, May 3, 1867, reports it was formed May 1 with 27 members. H. W. Hitchcock elected president..

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.
