September 17, 1882 - Sunday Base Ball Report
National League
Boston Red Caps 50-27

Buffalo Bisons 41-34
Cleveland Blues 41-35
Providence Grays 40-37
Troy Trojans 30-46

Boston continues to lead the NL by what seems to be a decisive margin, but they also had an off-week, losing three of four games and letting Detroit creep back within striking distance. One good week would do it though, and this week Boston is in Buffalo before heading home to welcome the Troy Trojans.

The Eclipse had an amazing week, and none of them more so than Pete Browning, their local boy made good. The Gladiator has been unstoppable over his team's last six games, with 19 hits, 6 walks, 15 runs scored, 12 driven in, and a .655 average over that stretch.
That alone has pushed Louisville significantly ahead of their rivals in St. Louis. If Browning can just keep hitting for anothe week or two, Louisville will take home the inaugural AA pennant.
