The host teams slipped star players to each other. When the railroaders objected, Dawsonites pointed at the half-dozen Skagway recruits beefing up Whitehorse’s roster." Phil Williams, "Dawson City Baseball." May 2021 SABR Deadball Era Committee Newsletter Humber, "Diamonds of the North," p. 105, mentions a 1904 game "on the Queen's birthday" between "a team from Skagway, Alaska and the Yukon town of Whitehorse."
