Description

The Silverton [CO] Standard, July 23, 1892, has a long and sarcastic article on how the Durango baseball club came to Silverton and was defeated. The article notes how Durango's fans whined about the game and refused to pay their bets. The headline, in the florid style of the time, reads: "Durango's Waterlo. No Blucher Comes to the Rescue. The Durango Nine Overwhelmingly Defeated by a Score of 25 to 6."

Durnago, CO was established in 1881. It is probable that Durango had a baseball team prior to 1892, as the Silverton Standard, May 10, 1890, has the Silverton team looking for games with (inter alia) Durango.
