| Description | From Protoball Entry #1858.35 – New York Game Seen in Boston: Portland [ME] 47, Tri-Mountains 42. "It took awhile but this modern game – and its popularity – moved steadily north. By 1858 we know it had arrived in Maine . . . because an article in the September 11th issue of the Portland Daily Advertiser heralded the fact that the Portland Base Ball Club had ventured to Boston to play the Tri-Mountain Base Ball Club of that city. The game was played September 9th on the Boston Common." Portland won, 47- 42. "Anderson, Will, Was Baseball Really Invented in Maine? (Will Anderson, publisher, Portland, 1992), page 1. Query: Can we find the original Portland article, or otherwise confirm the date the the PBBC came into existence? Date confirmed--see "games" below. [ba] |

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.
