Description

GRAND MATCH FOR THE COLORED CHAMPIONSHIP, NEW YORK VS. PHILADELPHIA

The match between the Excelsiors of Philadelphia and the Uniques of Brooklyn played on the Satellite grounds on Thursday, the 3rd inst. Proved to be about an interesting, amusing, and laughable, as anything we have seen this season.

Tony Pastor & the Minstrels  - the band struck up “Rally around the flag boys & the nines marched into position –

“Youm say dat man am out, and  jis knock youm damn head off,” Players running the bases, unable to hear the decisions of the Umpire, were informed by their captain that, “Judgment says dat am out, or Judgment says dat am foul.”
