Default 1879 Boston Vs Buffalo National League Scorecard (Scored) Pud Galvin
Really neat item. Game was rained out in the fourth inning per a handwritten note on the card. The Red Stockings Won a game on Friday June 6, 1879 by a score of 7-4, and this game on the 4th had them in front 7-0 before the rains came. This game could have possibly counted in the official record, as I am not sure how rain outs were handled in the 1870's. In any event, young 22 year old future Hall of Famer Pud Galvin got absolutely torched in this one, allowing 10 hits in less than four innings.
