I have been collecting ticket stubs for 25+ years and it is very difficult to place an exact date on the older undated ticket stubs. There are great sites to help (retrosheet being one of them) but it takes quite a bit of effort without any clues.

I believe MVSNYC is correct that it refers to the home game number and not to the the total game number of the team. You could buy season ticket books in advance of the season back then and the numbers on the tickets would only go to 81 or however many home games there were so you could be using stub number 81 on the 162nd game if it was the 81st home game.

Not sure. You may be right about that but that makes it even more impossible because they could not have played that many home games by June 26. In fact by my count, June 26 was only their 25th home game.

Regardless of how you interpret the 61st game, it does not appear the stub is properly identified.

Numbering of tickets
The game number as referred to on the ticket would also refer to the original schedule, not the actual game played, postponements or cancellations due to rain, etc. would need to be factored in.

Retrosheet is actually linked to this board. If you hit "vintage links" at the top, and then "historical sites", you will find it. I use it all the time.
