You're one of a handful of posters I can think of who can make 1800s baseball seem interesting.

One thing I'm wondering: when you list player statistic lines, you're putting in the common line from today's game (i.e., homers, RBI, AVG, SB). In the 1800s what would you think would be a more appropriate line? AVG and then what - RBI and Runs? Were homeruns even mentioned as something special?
