In the second away game in Baltimore, Boston put up another exceptional performance. Both teams didn't make many errors (for this baseball era), so the game was based more on individual performances.



In the end, Boston crushed the Canaries with an astonishing 14-6 in their own ballpark. Player of the day was Robbie Stoltenberg who started for Santiago Coro, who had been hitless in Game 1. He went 3-for-4 and laid...

The world series starts with two ballgames at Newington Park in Baltimore. It's a historic moment for the Boston players as they enter the arena. This is their first appearance in the World Series!

Looking at the lineups, we seem to be the underdogs against Baltimore. Their SP is class and their Batting rotation is made up by well established-top performers in the AL. After seeing this, I'm not surprised they've been dominating the AL since the first ballgame in 1871.

Alright, it's time for the 1873 MLB world series.

Lets have a look at the playoff rosters:

Baltimore Canaries:



One of the stars in this team is SP Asa Brainard, who missed most of the regular season, but still managed to finish with a 8-4 record and an ERA of 2.44.

The other guy to keep an eye on is right Fielder Lip Pike. He's hit an incredible 5 Homeruns this season to top...

Hey there,

the regular season is over and there's a reason why I'm not going to post the regular season and the playoffs in one update. The second half of the season turned out very nice for Boston. We've been chasing Cincinnati for quite a while and were finally able to intercept them in game 41. It was an up and down from there, but we managed to keep a lead of two games in front of Cincinnati until the final 3-game series against them. The first of those three games was lost...

25 out of 50 games are done, and it's been another average season so far. My high expectations for this year's roster didn't materialize on the scoreboards yet, but we aren't cut off from the NL title race yet as well, so we'll have to see what happens in the second half and if our two high octance new signings Tom York and Mike McGeary will finally start to perform.

Standings:



It's quite remarkable...
