Cincinnati Reds (6-5) at Chicago White Stockings (9-3)

The White Stockings took the lead in the National League after going 2 for 2 against Louisville, but they have another stiff test - the Reds are looking relatively competitive. Meanwhile, Louisville is traveling to St. Louis to take on the last-place Brown Stockings.

The game ended up being a wild one. Chicago fought back from a three-run, ninth-inning deficit to win the game and overcame a record-setting performance by Charley Jones of Cincinnati, who had an unprecedented three triples in the game.
