I recently had one of my scorebooks returned that was on loan at the Negro League Museum here in Kansas City. The scorebook was for a Norwich, NY team that appears to have been a very good regional team at the time. Anyway, the interesting part is that the scorebook contains a couple of games in which they played the Cuban Giants. I finally took some time to do a small bit of research on some of the players and found an interesting article about the giant's catcher, John Garcia, and his demise during a game against a Jamaica, NY team in late 1904 -
