1882 was a wild one in the Natioanl League.
Five different teams were in first place at one time or another.
Buffalo, Chicago, Cleveland, Providence and Boston all took turns at 1st place.
Larry Cochrane threw a no hitter against Detroit making 3 years in row a no hitter was thrown.
Last 2 years against Detroit.
On the bad side were the Orioles who managed a 12-62 record in the American Association's first year.
So far the worst record in history of the AA and NL.
They also had the worst team batting avg at .200
Oh i almost forgot the Orioles also had a 20 game losing streak.
