Text | "New Orleans experiences a boom in 1859 when 7 teams were started and two more followed the next year. These early New Orleans LA nines first used Massachusetts rules, but by 1860 they had all switched to NABBP rules." Somers, Dale, The Rise of Sports in New Orleans 1850-1900 (Publisher?, Baton Rouge, 1972), footnote 73 on pages 49-50. Provided by David Nevard, email of 6/11/2007. Caution: Richard Hershberger [email of 10/19/2009] notes that, in examining the article on the MA game, he found that the sides had ten players each, but seems otherwise to reflect Association rules. He notes that outside of match games, it was not unusual for clubs to depart from the having nine players on a side. |
