Are you sure about that Phillies tidbit? Baseball-Reference has the Cubs going back to 1876. They changed their name several times (although in the early days baseball team nicknames were pretty unofficial), but it's the same franchise.
B-R also has the Reds starting in 1882 as the Red Stockings, the Braves in 1876 (also as the Red Stockings), the Pirates in 1882 as the Alleghenys, and the Cardinals in 1882 as the Brown Stockings. The Phillies also apparently didn't use the name 'Phillies' since their founding. B-R lists them as the "Quakers" until 1890. |
