1886 Utica Pent-Ups, champions of the International League

The Utica Pent-Ups (alternately, the Pentups) were a professional baseball team based in Utica, New York, that played in the International Association for the 1878 season, the National Association in 1879, and different incarnations of the New York State League. The Pent-Ups were members of the first New York State League (which became the International League in 1886) from 1885 to 1887, the second from 1889 to 1890, and the third from 1898 to 1909. Many major-league baseball players played for the team, including outfielder George Burns, who won a World Series with the New York Giants in 1921.
