"The Oak Park Club went on to a nice, sociable little baseball strike before the game. A rule of the league has been made that there is no free list and that everyone except the players and the officials of the league must pay 25 cents to attend the games. The rule was made so the player's percentage of the gate after the first six games would not be cut down by a long free list.

The Parkers appeared at the ground shortly after 1 o'clock and when asked to pay for their wives, fathers, uncles, and, in some cases, grandfathers, they objected. The Board of Control met when informed that the Park boys would not play unless they were refunded the money they had to pay for their friends.
1915-7-11 Independent games. Dutch Schroeder, Sacramento Jovians pitcher, signed by Boston NL for $1400 for rest of reason. This is his last game. Doesn't look like he ever played for them.
