Description

(Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times: “The most exciting and finely played game of the season, …  The Victory Club has been defeated but once before, since their organization, and then by the Excelsiors, of Brooklyn, by a majority of seven runs; consequently, their defeat by the Ulster was unlooked for.  …  The Victory Club is well known as one of the first-class clubs of the country; on the other hand, the Ulsters have remained comparatively in the dark; but their splendid victory over their experienced opponents will now place them among the first-class clubs of the State.”)
