The same sad story is told again to-day--Altoona torn to pieces on the diamond, such ball-playing that the St. Louis Unions exhibit would conquer almost any club that was ever organized. To see them take hold of Altoona is like seeing a giant jumping on an infant and throwing it in mid-air. J. Gleason played a wonderful game at third base for St. Louis, while Hodnett's pitching was excellent.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat, May 4, 1884
The sad thing is that the Maroons still had one more games with this club.
