    it would be possible then for the other two teams to have already played a sunday home game that year before the pirates game
    If the Pirates game was on the third Sunday of the season they probably were the last of the three teams to play a Sunday home game.

    I may have the year wrong, but Pennsylvania was the last state containing Major League teams to legalize Sunday baseball.

    my source listed the pirates ... On April 29th, 1934 the Pittsburgh Pirates became the last remaining major league city to play a home outing on a Sunday (beating the Cincinnati Reds 9-5) after the state's "Blue Law" (prohibiting games on Sundays) was repealed.


    but O have seen this source is not always 100% accurate
