BB-reference

The St. Louis Browns 1898 season was the team's 17th season in St. Louis, Missouri and the 7th season in the National League. The Browns went 39-111 during the season and finished 12th in the National League.

Chris von der Ahe, who had owned the team since its inception in 1882, was forced into court due to his mounting debts related to owning the Browns. Von der Ahe lost the team in the trial and it was eventually bought by brothers Stanley and Frank Robison. The Robisons would eventually change the team's colors to red and the nickname to Cardinals.
