The smaller 1900 National League allowed the Western League to fulfill its dreams of becoming a major league, filling the void in a number of cities by renaming itself the American League in 1900 and declaring itself a major league in 1901.With shorter schedules before 1886, it was much more common for teams to finish with sub-.300 winning percentages, as there was less of the evening out effect of a longer season.

The Braves' home winning percentage of .167 is the fifth-lowest of any MLB team and the lowest since 1900.

Poor attendances meant that they played 97 of their 136 games on the road, finishing with a road record of 9–88 (the 88 road losses remained a record until 1899, and is unreachable under current MLB scheduling rules).

The Alleghenys .093 road winning percentage is the lowest in MLB history for a minimum of 60 games.

The Athletics then finished in last place from 1915–1922.

In 1916, they went 36–117, including 13–64 on the road.

For comparison, this projects to 18–144 under the current schedule, and Pythagorean expectation based on the Quicksteps' results and the current 162-game schedule predicts a record of 14–148.
