Description

(New York Sunday Mercury: “Both parties were short handed, indeed so much so as to make it nearly a second nine contest.  Of the Star first nine Mitchell, Galpin, Manly, Snediker and Thompson did not play, and o the other side, Dr. Bell, Dalton, and Snow, we believe, were the only first nine players present. …/We thought we noticed a design on the part of one or two of the H. Eckfords to wait at the bat until the player on the 3d base got in.  Now this custom is not the most creditable one in the world, and the less frequent, it is adopted, the fairer the game will be.  Hit the first good ball you got, is the only fair and square game to play.  The habit of waiting is doubtless one of those points we hear spoken of, but these by the way are not always points that add to the honor of a clubs play.”)

(New York Clipper: “The first nines of these clubs played their first game together ….  The play was nothing remarkable on either side, although good, considering that both parties were minus the services of half their regular players.”)
