FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
» January 31, 1898: Cap Anson is fired after 19 years as player-manager of Chicago. Strong-minded Cap, with a record of 1,288 victories and five pennants, was enormously popular in Chicago. Former infielder Tom Burns takes over for Chicago, who are now called the Orphans.

» July 15, 1900: At Detroit, Tigers manager Tommy Burns, afraid the crowd would injure umpire Joe Cantillon after the previous day's hostilities, refuses to let him work, and the game is forfeited to Cleveland. But Indians manager Jim McAleer agrees to play using reserve player Sport McAllister as the ump, and Detroit wins, 6–1.
