If you are familiar with the History of Base Ball you can check out
Major League Baseball & MLB Encyclopedia | Baseball-Reference.com and build your Historical League with the real teams and lineups. But you have to do it manually each season until 1901. A bit of work but fun if you love learning about its history and players, the way the game evolved over the years.
You just have to setup the Historical Game and after you start the game you can realign the league manually by going to League Settings / Edit League Structure...you will see 8 teams in 2 divisions. move the 4 teams in the American League to the National League and then delete the AL. Then you Click Add New Team for a total of nine Teams. Then Go to there Front Offices and Rename then to the original Team Names.
Have all the players maybe 150 original, sent to your Free Agent page and in commissioner mode edit the players to there real teams. If you want an eazy way to know the teams and roasters go to Wikipedia and type in "1871 In Baseball".

Hope this can help you.
