President Lucas, of the Union Base Ball Association, arrived home last night at 9:20, after a week's visit to Altoona, where he wound up the affairs of the local club, and arranged for the transfer of the best talent in the team to Kansas City. He says he will meet the officers of the Kansas City Club in this city on Wednesday to complete the transfer, and one week later the Kansas City Club will be in the field with a strong team.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat, June 3, 1884
The Kansas City Unions were the first major league club in KC history and it appears that the club was profitable. They were not, however, a good team, finishing 16-63.
