The new teams included the original Minneapolis Millers. Springfield and Toledo had left the league after the 1883 season. Bay City disbanded from the league on July 22, and started a chain reaction. Evansville left on July 30, and Grand Rapids and Muskegon followed suit on August 2. The season ended when the Millers disbanded on September 3.
