Description	Sporting Life, Oct. 19, 1907, under the headline "Australian Affairs," notes that Brisbane had baseball clubs for only 1 season, and the game there stopped due to "scarcity of grounds" and migration of the players. It is unclear from the article when the game was played there. During the 1913-14 baseball world tour, on Jan. 1, 1914, the Chicago White Sox and NY Giants played a game at the "Exhibition Oval," in Brisbane, before 5000 spectators. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Jan. 2, 1914, the spectators had seen the game played only once or twice in the last 25 years. For more on this game, see Sullivan, History of the World Tour (1914).
