The 1871 Season Begins

I'm probably going to start simming ahead, but I thought I'd put the spotlight on the first game of the first professional league ever, between the Cleveland Forest Citys and Fort Wayne Kekiongas. In the real world these was an extremely unusual game for the time - a 2-0 defensive battle. In OOTP 11, it was a more normal 12-5 battle won by the Forest City club, as John Bass, Art Allison and Ezra Sutton all came up with multi-hit games.

I'm going to move ahead to the end of May and then post some more about the standings and statistics.
