1881 Detroit Wolverines Schedule

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive team schedule for the 1881 Detroit Wolverines with dates for every game played, opponents faced, a final score, and a cumulative record for the 1881 season.

"The baseball season - six months & 2,106 games - is flat out long, and it's a rare one of those games that doesn't ramble or sputter or digress or somehow violate the rules of dramatic narrative. Baseball takes its own sweet time reaching its conclusions." - Dwight Allen in Reds, Yanks and O's (1989)
