1872 Awards
1872 Best Gloves Picked by NL Thursday, October 24th, 1872: Good glovemen take pride in their defensive skills. They know they make a difference in baseball. Even on days when they don't get a hit, they feel they can make a difference in the field -- and they do. The National League announced its Glove Wizard Award honorees for 1872. This year's recipients are: Pitcher: Al Pratt (Boston Red Stockings) Catcher: Deacon White (Boston Red Stockings) First Baseman: Joe Start (Chicago White Stockings) Second Baseman: Andy Leonard (Brooklyn Atlantics) Third Baseman: Jim Tipper (Boston Red Stockings) Shortstop: George Wright (Boston Red Stockings) Left Fielder: Tom York (Chicago White Stockings) Center Fielder: George Hall (Cincinnati Reds) Right Fielder: Dick Hurley (Brooklyn Atlantics) AL Best Fielders for 1872 Selected Thursday, October 24th, 1872: What does it take to win a Glove Wizard Award? It's a combination of good hands, knowing how to play the hitters, all-out hustle and a willingness to sacrifice your body to make a play. Good speed and a good arm never hurt, either, but not always required. This year's all-defense team in the American League consists of: Pitcher: Rynie Wolters (Philadelphia Athletics) First Baseman: Everett Mills (St. Louis Brown Stockings) Second Baseman: Chick Fulmer (Baltimore Canaries) Third Baseman: Mike McGeary (Baltimore Canaries) Shortstop: Francis Abercrombie (Baltimore Canaries) Left Fielder: Ned Cuthbert (St. Louis Brown Stockings) Center Fielder: Paul Hines (Baltimore Canaries) Right Fielder: Herb Worth (Baltimore Canaries) 1872 NL Best Rookie Named Friday, October 25th, 1872: The National League Newcomer of the Year Award has been given to Joe Higby of the Boston Red Stockings. In the 1872 season the 28-year-old right fielder played in 46 games, recording a .416 batting average with 1 home run, 42 RBIs and 47 runs scored. 1872 Best AL Rookie Picked Friday, October 25th, 1872: The top American League rookie in 1872 was Philadelphia right fielder Martin Mullen. He's the latest winner of the American League Newcomer of the Year Award. During his first year in the league, the 20-year-old Mullen hit .426 with 81 hits, no home runs, 49 RBIs and 47 runs scored. He also walked 8 times on his way to a .455 on-base percentage. Red Stockings Ace NL's Best Pitcher Sunday, October 27th, 1872: He's in the early phase of his career, but this past season Al Pratt performed like a veteran on the hill for the Boston Red Stockings and walked away with the National League Outstanding Pitcher Award in the process. The 23-year-old Red Stockings star fashioned a 28-15 won-loss record in 1872 with a 2.69 ERA. In 394.2 innings of work and 50 starts, Pratt struck out 11 while giving up 566 hits and 45 walks. He held opposing batters to a .312 average. AL's #1 Pitcher is Wolters Sunday, October 27th, 1872: The Outstanding Pitcher Award for 1872 has been presented and the American League winner is Rynie Wolters of Philadelphia. "It's always nice to receive an award like this," said Wolters. "I just hope I can improve on my performance next year and be in the running again," the Athletics star told reporters. Wolters excelled with an impressive 28-6 record in 33 starts. In 302 innings he yielded 445 hits and 23 walks, while striking out 20 and compiling a fine 2.26 ERA. Joe Higby Named Premier NL Batsman Monday, October 28th, 1872: Joe Higby of the Boston Red Stockings had a fine season this year and today he accepted the Outstanding Hitter Award for 1872. The 28-year-old right fielder put up a .416 average and a .429 on-base percentage, piling up 79 hits, 12 doubles, 5 triples, 1 home run, 42 RBIs and 47 runs scored. AL's Best Hitter for 1872 Named Monday, October 28th, 1872: Ross Barnes of the Philadelphia Athletics proved that you can step out of the shadows and onto the stage if you've got the talent and the drive to hone your skills. Hard work, long hours and a tireless resolve paid off for him today in the form of the American League Outstanding Hitter Award. Barnes hit for a .460 average while collecting 115 hits, 15 doubles, 7 triples, 1 home run, 59 RBIs and scoring 82 times. 1872 First Year Draft NABL News: First-Year Player Draft Friday, November 1st, 1872: In the few hours remaining until the draft begins today, GMs across North American BaseBall League will be penned up in their offices, making hurried last minute notes about each of their most coveted prospects. Fearful that things won't go as planned, many of them are still playing through the myriad scenarios that are all but certain to unfold in the high-stakes lottery of drafting. Scouting teams play devil's advocate, argue strategy back and forth and try to help their general manager gain the strategic upper hand, even though they know a lot of what transpires today will come down to being in the right place at the right time. BNN projects that the top picks of the draft will be: 1. John Sheppard, 27 year-old catcher out of college. 2. Joe Gerhardt, 17 year-old second baseman out of high-school. 3. Jack Manning, 18 year-old right fielder out of high-school. 4. Joe McDoolan, 27 year-old reliever out of college. 5. Jim Britt, 16 year-old starting pitcher out of college. 6. Henry Kessler, 25 year-old catcher out of college. 7. Len Lovett, 20 year-old reliever out of college. 8. John Greason, 21 year-old reliever out of college. 9. Jim Devlin, 23 year-old first baseman out of college. 10. Ed Stratton, 27 year-old starting pitcher out of college.

1873 Season
50 games: 25 home and 25 away Cleveland Blue at Philadelphia Athletics Tuesday April 1st 1873 Philadelphia 6 Cleveland 5 Barnes and the Athletics pick up where they left off. Bill Boyd goes 5-5 and Ross extends his hitting streak to 63 games. Boyd 5-5 for Athletics Tuesday, April 1st, 1873: If just anyone could go out and hit a baseball, big dollar contracts wouldn't exist. But they can't, so the good hitters get the big bucks. Bill Boyd showed how it's done as he went 5 for 5 against the Cleveland Blues and helped the Philadelphia Athletics beat them 6-5. Saturday April 5th 1873 Cleveland 6 Philadelphia 2 Ross Barnes goes 4-5 in a losing effort. Four run 1st lifts Blues. Consecutive-Game Hit Streak Continues for Clapp Wednesday, April 9th, 1873: Win, lose or draw -- John Clapp just keeps on getting base hits -- game after game after game. He has now stretched his hitting streak to 30 games. The Boston Red Stockings catcher picked up 1 hit in 5 at-bats today, but it wasn't enough to win the game. His club was defeated 6-5 by the Chicago White Stockings at 23rd Street Grounds. Hines's Hit Streak Soars to 25 Games Wednesday, April 9th, 1873: Baltimore's 18-year-old center fielder Paul Hines has had a fine run at the plate over the last few weeks. His consecutive-game hitting streak has reached 25 games now. Today Hines extended the streak by going 1-5 against Brown Stockings pitching. The streak has brought him a degree of attention that he has tried to deflect. Hines always prefers to talk about his teammates' accomplishments rather than his own. After the Canaries 3-2 triumph over St. Louis at Newington Park he downplayed his part in the victory. Friday April 11th 1873 Cleveland 9 Philadelphia 8 6 Run 9th in not enough for Athletics. Ross Barnes comes up empty. Blues Chill Barnes's Hot Streak Friday, April 11th, 1873: It was the best of both worlds for the Cleveland Blues today at Jefferson Street Grounds as they defeated the Philadelphia Athletics 9-8 and also ended Ross Barnes's 64-game hitting streak. The 22-year-old Philadelphia second baseman failed to get a hit in 5 at-bats. Harry Wright Calls it a Career Friday, April 11th, 1873: Ending weeks of speculation, Harry Wright announced his retirement today. The Brown Stockings right fielder has been reportedly weighing the decision since last year, sources close to Wright say. Sunday April 13th 1873 Philadelphia 12 Cleveland 11 Ross Barnes drives in three and Lip Pike goes 3-5 as Athletics split series. Bill Boyd scores three times. Baltimore Canaries at Philadelphia Athletics Thursday April 17th 1873 Philadelphia 7 Baltimore 5 Dave Lenz scores three time and Holly Hollingshead drives in two with a bases loaded double in the sixth inning. Wednesday April 2rd 1873 Philadelphia 5 Baltimore 1 Rynie Wolters scatters 5 hits. Thursday April 24th 1873 Baltimore 14 Philadelphia 2 Mike McGeary drives in three and Chick Fulmer goes 3-5 for the Canaries. Ross Barnes goes 3-4 for Athletics. Philadelphia at St Louis Brown Stockings Monday April 28th 1873 Philadelphia 17 St Louis 4 Joe Battin, Ross Barnes, and Martin Mullen each drive in three. Dave Lenz scores four times. Wood Hits in 20 Consecutive Games Monday, April 28th, 1873: Today at Kennard Street Park Cleveland lost to Baltimore 12-10, but Jimmy Wood kept his consecutive-game hitting streak alive with 2 hits. The Blues second baseman has now delivered hits in 20 straight games. Hines Sizzles with 30-Game Batting Streak Monday, April 28th, 1873: Today Paul Hines went 3-for-5 in the Baltimore Canaries 12-10 victory over the Cleveland Blues. This extended his hitting streak to 30 games. Hines declined to comment for the media immediately after the game. Standings

O'Rourke Strokes 5 Hits Friday, June 27th, 1873: It was a sensational day at the plate for Jim O'Rourke, but a letdown as well as the Atlantics dropped the game 18-13 to the Reds. Nonetheless the Brooklyn catcher was pure misery for the Cincinnati pitching staff. He left them shell shocked with 5 hits in 6 at-bats in an explosive display of hitting.
