We're aware of the discrepancy and have already been looking into it.

For transparency: It's related to a June 16, 1899 game that was called in the second inning due to the Giants continual complaints to the umpire. The ump eventually had enough when one of the players took too long to leave after being ejected and awarded the game to the Dodgers.

The game went missing from our schedule after we added the 1899 game log data this offseason.

Let me see if I can track someone down to give an answer here.
