1876 St. Louis Brown Stockings season

The St. Louis Brown Stockings joined the newly formed National League as a charter member in 1876.

Although both St. Louis and Hartford finished the season 6 games behind the pennant-winning Chicago White Stockings, the Brown Stockings were officially the third place team as, in 1877, the standings were determined by number of wins, not games behind.

According to Stathead, the 1876 Brown Stockings hold the lowest team ERA in MLB history (1.22).
