No sign of them actually playing any games, however. It appears the Donovans scheduled games with some of the all-time worst teams in Major League history. They seem to insist on having a fighting chance since they were/are to such trouble and expense to revive and time-transport a team boasting just a .221 batting average as a group. I don't know the ins and outs of time travel, so it's anyone's guess why there are no results. Maybe they are forthcoming. If they ever show, I'll pass them on. What a shame if they come so close but never play. For now though, I'll leave you their schedule to look over. Might get an idea of what bets you want to place, just in case.
Schedule: All series are scheduled for the second weekend of October in the years indicated, three or four games each over Friday, Saturday (occasional double-headers), and Sunday. None of these are playoff teams, so their seasons will be/were finished by mid-October.

| Player-Manager "Wild Bill" Donovan sports the team's alternate away uniform.
Hopefully the team did/will get the chance to wear this get-up in action.
