Description

The West Palm Beach Tropical Sun, Nov. 28, 1895: "The East and West Side Ball teams will cross bats on the Poinciana diamond today."

The Miami Metropolis, July 2, 1897: "There will be a grand baseball match at West Palm Beach tomorrow (Saturday) between the team of that town and a nine from Miami." Same July 9, 1897 reports that Miami won the game, and implied that's to be expected, as West Palm Beach is a mere town while Miami is a city.

West Palm Beach was incorporated in 1894.
