Text | [Mutual vs. Eckford 9/1/1869] The Atlantics, Athletcs and Haymakers, having had their exhibition games this season, the Mutuals and Eckfords thought they would have their little exhibition game too, and so on Wednesday, Sept. 1, the two clubs met together for a “single” game on the Union grounds Brooklyn... Under the idea that the match was the first of a new series of championship contests an immense gathering of spectators was present; but of course the result, so far as the possession of the whip pennant was concerned, was a matter of indifference to both clubs, neither caring who won, or lost, for that matter. |
