"The New-York Atlas of 10/21/1861, reporting on a recent match between the Mutuals and Atlantics played at the Atlantics' grounds at Gates Ave and Marcy Ave in Bedford (Brooklyn), writes:
 
"...although the ground was rather rough; but the Atlantics being used to it, and also to the action of the ball when it bounded against a fence in the left field..."
 
Note  that this is, of course, is not the Capitoline Grounds (only constructed in 1864)
