July 2, 1888
The Port Norris Baseball club on Saturday afternoon played the Dividing Creek nine at the latter place. The game resulted in a victory for the Port Norris club by a score of 17 to 5. Some excellent playing was done on both sides, but the best was done by the Port Norris club, notably the three baggers by Robbins, McConnell and Turner and the battery of the Port Norris club, Baily and McConnell, is one of the finest, that has ever been seen in this place, with the other players equally good in their respective positions, the nine would be almost invincible.

The Port Norris and Picked nines played their second game of ball yesterday. The score was 14 to 3 in favor of the Picked nine. We think it would be better for the Port Norris club to send the Picked nine to Cedarville on Thursday.

July 26, 1890
A game of base ball was played in the presence of a large crowd on Thursday between the Port Norris and Philadelphia teams, resulting in a victory for the Port Norris boys.

Oyster League fans saw the strong Maurice River Township team lead the loop in both halves and will agree that they played well and deserved to win. There was really no consistently good opposition although the Port Norris aggregation which finished in second place twice, did manage to beat the leaders three times in their scheduled six games.
