In certain respects, the capital of the Union, Washington DC, forgot about the war. In June of 1862 a Baseball game between the National and Washington clubs was played. In May of 1863, a championship boxing match between Joe Coburn and Mike McCordle was fought. It lasted 62 rounds, the prize of $2,000 went to the winner, Coburn.
