Barnes did play only nine seasons between 1871-1881, but he also played many years with the Forest Citys of Rockford. Seems like if they wanted to include him they coud give him some credit for 1866-1870.
But I didn't realize he only played nine pro seasons.
Edited to add you said pretty much the same thing.
