If you’re a baseball fan, you might recognize the name of the person who’s been falsely named as the “Inventor of Baseball”, Capt. Abner Doubleday of the 1st US Artillery. He was a member of the Union garrison at Ft. Sumter. #AbnerDoubleday #BaseballHistory (at Fort Sumter National Monument) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfIF_85u6OH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

GSMC Baseball Podcast Episode 466: Did You Know...?

Legend has it that the first game of base ball (spelled like that way back then) occurred in #Hoboken, #NJ. It may not be as big a myth as the one of #AbnerDoubleday inventing the game in bucolic #Cooperstown. Truth is, there are lots of theories as to where the first game happened — anywhere from #NewYorkCity to, hold your breath — #Canada! Suffice it to say, this one was indeed one of the very first. And Hoboken has commemorated it simply and beautifully where 11th Street crosses over Washington Street. Cardboard cutout fans wouldn’t arrive for another 174 years. #baseball ⚾️ (at Hoboken, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDr44wmhqtn/?igshid=37w0hj6s5mu5
