Rained out?

This article says the first game was rained out in the top of the 9th, however, the retrosheet play-by-play (listed as an external link) indicates the full game was played. Is there a source for the rainout claim? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.151.41.2 (talk) 23:57, 2 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Early rules

Why are a few early rules listed here? --P64 (talk) 02:03, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Major league

First professional game? Huh? I revised that to professional league game.

The following paragraph concerns "Major League Baseball" but it should be the major leagues without capitals (MLB is not relevant here). I have imported it from under the early rules, with the "ref" tags represented in square brackets. --P64 (talk) 02:03, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In 1921, an Advisory Council was established by the American League (founded 1901) and the National League (founded 1876) and Judge Kenesaw Landis was named commissioner in the New Major League Agreement to last 25 years.[ref]1921 Major League agreement[/ref] The successors to the Advisory Council have since claimed trademark status for the phrases "Organized Baseball" and "Major League Baseball". Because the National Association of Professional Base-Ball Players came and went long before that, they were not Major League Baseball even though they were the first major baseball league, and they were not part of Organized Baseball even though they were the only organized league of compensated baseball players. The Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York, however, has since recognized the National Association as the first Major League, and the game between the Kekiongas and the Forest Citys as the first professional baseball game.
