Base-ball Notes

Cleveland Wins First Match, Defeat Kekiongas. Score 10 to 4.
New York Times
Cleveland. May 26, 1871.

The Cleveland Club had lost all seven of its Championship matches this season coming into to-day’s match with Fort Wayne. On this day, however, their heavy bats prevailed, taking fourteen bases and driving in ten runs against MATHEWS of the Kekiongas. The Cleveland pitcher, PRATT, meanwhile allowed Fort Wayne only a single earned tally.
