Team rosters had at the most 15 or 16 players at the time, usually 1 pitcher and another player who could pitch just in case. There were no fastballs, as they didn't pitch overhand, so there was no need for a bullpen or a pitchers arm being tired.

In 1877 teams played usually on Tues, Thur and Sat, so I would assume something close for 1871.
