End of May 1875 Standings



Ok, now a serious question can be posed: Are the Red Stockings EVER going to lose a game? With a 24-0 start, they already have an 8 game lead in the Association.

NOTE: In real life, the Red Stockings actually started the 1875 season 26-0! That year, they went on to finish at 71-8, by far the most dominating team ever in a single season. But after this year, the Association collapses and the National League forms and most of the Boston stars got purchased by the White Stockings in real life.

FOLDED:
Philadelphia Centennials

The Centennials were off to a rocky start and just didn't have the finances to continue play, so as usual, their players are free to play wherever they want to.

Where the Centennials players signed:

Washington Nationals:
2B Ed Somerville, LF John Hatfield, LF Charlie Mason, RF Frank Buttery, 1B Bub McAtee, 1B Mike Campbell, SS Denny Mack, RF Tim McGinley, SS Ham Allen, 3B George Trenwith
Keokuk Westerns: 3B Bill Smiley, 2B John Smith, 3B Ed Pinkham, C Sam Field
STL Brown Stockings: SS Wally Goldsmith, 1B John Abadie, C Doug Allison
Hartford Dark Blues: CF Fred Warner, SS John Bass
