May 19, 1878 - Sunday Base Ball Report

Cincinnati Reds 7-2
Boston Red Caps 5-1
Chicago White Stockings 5-3
Indianapolis Blues 3-5
Milwaukee Grays 2-7
Providence Grays 1-5

And Cincinnati continues to play well. Somehow, their bizarre combination of hitters is doing enough to get the job done, especially when backed by the excellent pitching of Bobby Mitchell. Of course, six of their nine games so far have been against Milwaukee. This week will provide a good test, as they do battle with the Chicago club in Chicago. Meanwhile, Boston has quietly won five of six against Providence, and still has two more games against them before venturing out to play other teams.
