Just a comment on that nice Brooklyn team photo that Andrew posted. Actually it's the 1889 team - the date determined by the presence of mgr. Bill McGunnigle and Joe Visner. The players present are, as best as I can tell:
back:
George Pinkney - Mickey Hughes - Oyster Burns - Darby O'Brien - Hub Collins
front:
Pop Corkhill (?) - Tom Lovett - Bob Clark (?) - Bill McGunnigle - Dave Foutz - Joe Visner - Germany Smith
The cut-off billboard in the back where it says "antown" may refer to Germantown, which would place this in Philadephia.
