Responding to Chicago’s protest that Eastern teams helped Boston capture the circuit’s championship

 

 

On November 11, 1891 — The National League meets and dismisses the charges of collusion and game throwing against the eastern clubs brought by the Chicago Colts, thereby formally giving the Boston Beaneaters the pennant. The pennant winners won 23 of their last 30 games, including 18 in a row.

The league also plans its strategy for conquering the American Association by consolidating the four strongest Association clubs into a 12-team league for next year.

The Red Sox stay one game back of New York by topping Toronto, 7 – 6.
