[Albany vs. Capital City 4/24/1879] Unluckily for the pecuniary interests of both clubs, two high hills, located outside of the right and centre fields, afforded such a fine view that fully two thousand people witnessed the game free of charge.

...

The game was called for 3 P.M., and at that hour fully three thousand spectators–outside and in–were anxiously awaiting the first move of the game.
