| Description | Brunson, "Black Baseball" p. 223, says this club formed in 1867. However, a game of the Pythians in 1866 had as umpire a member of the "Excelsior" club, which assumedly is this club. See Philadelphia Press, Aug. 26, Oct. 28, 1866. An Excelsior Jr. "Col." Club played the Rouen Club Nov. 6, 1866, winning 54-29. See Philadelphia Press, Nov. 11, 1866. |

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.
