1884 Scorecard from Brooklyn Grays vs. New York Metropolitans with Baseball HOFer Tim Keefe in Lineup

This official score card features two famous 19th century teams, including the NY Metropolitans, who were the American Association champions of that year, and the Brooklyn Atlantics. The Atlantics were the Brooklyn Grays of the Interstate Association where they won the 1883 Championship. They joined the American Association in 1884 and finished in 9th place. This scorecard has been scored and features Baseball Hall of Famer Tim Keefe. Keefe rose to stardom with the New York Metropolitans of the American Association and had one of the most dominating seasons in baseball's early history. On July 4 of that year, Keefe pitched both ends of a doubleheader against Columbus, winning the first game with a one-hitter and the second with a two-hit gem. He went 41–27 over 619 innings pitched with a 2.41 ERA and 361 strikeouts. His 1884 campaign was almost as dominant, winning 37 games, losing 17, and striking out 334.
