1899 Washington Senators season

The 1899 Washington Senators baseball team finished the season with a 54–98 record, eleventh place in the National League.
The 25 home runs that right fielder Buck Freeman recorded were truly remarkable by the standards of the time; his tally was not surpassed until Babe Ruth hit 29 home runs with the 1919 [Boston Red Sox season|1919 Boston Red Sox].
When the NL contracted after the season, the Senators were disbanded. Owner J. Earl Wagner received $39,000 for his interest in the team.
