Gerris, "Sport and the American Occupation of the Philippines" p. 147 says Admiral Dewey's sailors played various army  and navy clubs from May to October 1999 in Manila. A Manila Baseball League flourished 1899-1902.

Baseball arrived in the Philippines with Commodore George Dewey in May 1898. After sinking the Spanish fleet in Manila Bay and taking over Cavite Naval Base, the Olympia‘s team, the Diamond Diggers, played the first Army-Navy game on Philippine soil. I could not find out who won.
