The name stuck, and the team was competitive for most of its history, winning a championship in 1895. In 1899, ownership bought the St Louis Perfectos and moved all of the Spiders' star players to St Louis. With basically a minor league roster, the Spiders went 20–134 which still stands as the worst record in major league history.  Notable Players Cy Young Jesse Burkett Bobby Wallace Cupid Childs This product is an historical representation of the defunct team in the description.
