The successor of Spalding as pitcher for the Bostons next year will be Josephs of the Doerr amateur club of this city. Contracts were signed Friday week in this city. Joseph is better known throughout the country from his connection with the Philadelphia club, with whom he has played a number of games since Fisher left them. ... In his recent visit to Boston, in the early part of August, he and Snyder played with the Bostons in a practice game against the “Phillies” with Spalding and White. The score of 7 to 2 in favor of Josephs’ side afforded another proof of his skill, and two days alter in a championship game, a muff by Malone of a ball thrown to first base was the only thing which saved the Bostons from defeat, they winning by only one run, in a score of 4 to 3 in eleven innings.
