MLB Front Office Manager Giveaway: Question #2 (Chicago/St. Louis Edition!)

The game continues. I'm throwing Question #2 is out there now, maybe it will be a little easier? This is a googlers nightmare contest because the information you want will not be in one easy place.

Question: The Chicago/St. Louis baseball feud has been going on for quite some time. What was the score of the first game for the Chicago White Stockings professional club between these two cities and what was the date? Of course, that's not easy enough, I also want to know who pitched that game for the winning club.

(Hint: Teams typically only carried one pitcher in those days)

Ok since nobody else has noticed and answered this, April 29th 1870, Chicago White Stockings vs. St. Louis Unions, The White Stockings beat the Union 47-1. Winning pitcher Ed Pinkham.

I'm going to go with April 29th 1870. Chicago White Stockings versus St. Louis Empires. Chicago winning 36-8. I'm going with Ed Pinkham as the winning pitcher.

So, is it Union or Unions? I've seen it both ways in documents.
