What a beautiful day for an 1858 original rules match! Gentlemanly competition (though I did see a few fines being paid). True vintage baseball.
Yes, a bit chilly in the shade. Probably refreshing for the Club Nines who worked for every play in the match.
I did not stay for the entire game as I usually would. Felt sad having to leave early. Still, a great time. One that will be remembered.
Enjoy the photographs, and catch a match! (First few photographs are of the Salmon warming up.)

Yes, there are mishaps. "They are having fun" type of mishaps.
Here are some YouTube videos for you to enjoy as well. Not mine (of course). Just something to share that should peak your interest to find a match to go to.
Three Hurrahs for the Match!!! It is always a joyful experience for the time I was there, and memories of time past brought to life right in front of you. Please, come see . . .
