1888 New York Giants schedule and scorecard, scored for a game against the Indianapolis Hoosiers. Based on the scoring, it appears that this game was played on August 7, a 6-4 Giants victory. Players in the game included John Montgomery Ward, Roger Connor, Jim O'Rourke, Buck Ewing, and Mickey Welch, all for the Giants. The game has been scored in pencil. The scorecard exhibits wear consistent with its age and use, including soiling, creasing at all corners, weakness at the fold, light paper loss and stray pencil markings. The item, which is a significant historical record of an early game that featured five future Hall of Famers, displays fairly well despite the wear.
