Description	A long article on early New Bedford baseball says the Wamsutta played a game July 4, 1866. See http://scvbb.org/2007/09/17/early-days-of-baseball-in-new-bedford-ca-1858/ (cited in Sons of Ocean entry). The Barnstable Patriot, Sept. 10, 1867 has the Wamsutta BBC of New Bedford playing the Cummaquids of Barnstable. Gives a box score. New Bedford Evening Standard, Oct. 13, 1869 reports the Wamsutta have disbanded. Probably named after the Wamsutta Mills.

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.
