First Blood for the 1910 Turks at Seattle ball grounds
The 1910 Turks defeated Fort Flagler 10 to 1 as new recruits and veterans showed infield and outfield talent.

The soldier lineup displayed speed but limited teamwork, with Johnson possibly earning a first base role and Schaeffer needing more experience.
