The 1884 St. Paul Saints (variously known also as the "White Caps" or "Apostles") joined the Union Association on September 27, 1884, partway through its season after starting the season in the Northwestern League. They finished with a 2-6-1 record. After the season the UA folded, as did the Saints.
