Three Outs and One Run" frames a single decisive moment in a close game, and the title names a player, Abraham, shown winning the ball. Currier & Ives issued a long series under the banner "The National Game" from the 1860s onward, presenting baseball as the country's favorite pastime and helping popularize the sport among readers who had never seen a match. Boston's clubs were among the strongest teams of the era, so the sheet connects a sporting scene to a city that took the game seriously.
