Abstract: Abstract From 1876 to 1877, the St. Louis Brown Stockings played in the National League (NL). Because of financial and management problems, however, they were dropped from the league although finishing, respectively, second and fourth in regular seasons. Then, in 1882, the Brown Stockings—renamed Browns in 1883—joined the American Association (AA) and played their home games at the 6000-seat Sportsman’s Park. A few years after winning four consecutive championships and then collapse of the AA, the Browns entered the 12-team NL.
