Bob Burke, "Baseball in Oklahoma City" (2003), p. 7: "By the fall of 1889 [the year the city was founded], Oklahoma City's first baseball grandstand was built near the location of the present Municipal Building.... The ballpark was thrown up quickly to host a series of games between Oklahoma City and its biggest rival, the team from Oklahoma Territory capitol city Guthrie."
