Season Notes

My assumption is that there were more games played than reported. Gaps in the calendar suggest that games could have been played. There are several reports in the newspapers that a Double Header was to be played, with no results shown. In early October The Tennessean reports that "The Elite Giants which recently met and defeated the Miami baseball team in a series last week will close the season at Wilson park Sunday with games against the Nashville Tigers. (source). The specific results of the series with the Miami Giants have not been found. It is not known if the series against the Nashville Tigers ever came to take place.
