Hello folks,
I found this postcard years ago in the grandfathers closet. Seriously!! You all seem to know the origins of all things baseball, I have never been able to find anything on this one, any chance of some help here?

Great old image. My WAG; Brookside Park, before the hood was settled? -early 1890s perhaps

These are from 1914, most attended game ever, est. 115,000.

Semi-Pro playoff game between the Cleveland White Autos vs a team from Johnstown PA I believe. This wasn't even the final game of the season. Those Cleveland fans loved their home team.

..."Those Cleveland fans loved their home team"

Still do! In my humble opinion, THE nation's most passionate (sports) fans.

Aaron - I think we're the most passionate football fans, but I'll let someone else wear the crown in baseball/basketball.

Matt,

455 consecutive sell-outs?

Aaron - I don't think true passion is measured when a team is winning - I think it is measured when a team is losing.
