| Description | (return game) (Troy Daily Whig (1): “a close contest is anticipated.” (Troy Daily Whig (2): “The day was remarkably pleasant, attracting a large crowd of spectators from this city, Lansingburgh and Cohoes. The game was well contested, and the clubs were ‘neck and neck,’ until the seventh innings, when the Victory’s improved their amasingly [sic] and came in with a handsome majority at the end of the match. / The Victory Club never played half so strong a game as they did yesterday; and the result, against so able a nine as the Vanguards, does them great credit. … / After the game was concluded yesterday the Victorys and Vanguards had a collation at Wier’s, and cheered each other heartily.
