March 2026 November 2013 Brooklyn Grooms 1893 National League Eastern Park Brooklyn, New York 65 63 y 7th Charles Byrne, Ferdinand Abell, George Chauncey Charles Byrne Dave Foutz The 1893 Brooklyn Grooms finished a disappointing seventh in the National League race under new player/manager Dave Foutz. The highlight of the year was when pitcher Brickyard Kennedy became the first major leaguer to pitch and win two games on the same day since the mound was moved back to 60 feet 6 inches. He allowed just eight hits in beating the Louisville Colonels 3–0 and 6–2 in a doubleheader on May 30, 1893.http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/la/history/timeline01.jsp Dodgers Timeline October 12, 2007 July 4, 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080704170220/http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/la/history/timeline01.jsp dead Offseason February 5, 1893: John Montgomery Ward was signed as a free agent by the Grooms.John Montgomery Ward page at Baseball Reference February 15, 1893: John Montgomery Ward was sold by the Grooms to the New York Giants for $6,000.
