The Knickerbocker Rules Era (NYK)
1851 NYK Season Overview
The Knickerbocker Base Ball Club of New York plays two matches with the Washington club, soon afterwards named Gotham. These are the second and third meetings between two clubs under "Knickerbocker Rules" after one played five years earlier. For 1851 to 1853, two annual Knicks-Gothams games are the only known matches between clubs, the Knicks winning all six.
I sincerely appreciate the research work, and the information being shared. It is important and interesting history.
