Description

(NYC: “The former club of Morrisania visited their friends of South Brooklyn, æ and met with a warm reception in every sense of the term, in the first place by being defeated by 18 runs, the Excelsior scoring 19 in one innings, after which they were hospitably entertained by their vanquishers, during which the most friendly feelings prevailed, their opinions of their friends and their favorite game being much enhanced thereby.”) Liberty (Bloomfield) 25

(PSOT: “The batting on both sides was as fine as ever was witnessed in a match, particularly on the side of the Excelsior, they making nine home runs. In the evening, they entertained the Union, and gentleman from the other clubs, very hospitably, the guests departing at a late hour, feeling satisfied that the Excelsiors deserved the name they have.”) Waverly (Bloomfield) 13

The match was played with a good deal of spirit on both sides, and afforded much pleasure to many witnesses of the game.”)
