Description	Railton's London City Directory, 1856/57, p. 21, lists the Base Ball Club officers and says it has 22 members. They practice each Tu/Th at the Military Reserve. Brian Martin, "The Tecumsehs of the International Association" suggests they played the Canadian baseball game, 11 a side, resembling the MA game.

Win/Loss Records As Far As We Now Know

Warning: Users should not rely on a team's won-loss record as a reflection of its "standing" among all base ball clubs. Team schedules were not balanced, and a good record against mostly weak opponents does not signify a leading club.
