I've been a member of the Athletic Baseball Club of Philadelphia for the past two seasons. About to start the 3rd. We play by 1864 rules. What I tell everyone is that now that you have heard about vintage base ball, you will realize it is played by a lot more people than expected. There are teams all over the place!
Responding to some of the threads so far, the Conan bit is fantastic. Played in a tourney at those fields up in Old Bethpage...really fun place to play some base ball.
Played in the Gettysburg event last year...another great tournament! I believe one of Eddie Plank's grandchildren was there to throw out the opening pitch.
Flemington Neshanock-great bunch of guys to play against!
Our team is hosting a Vintage Base Ball Festival September 6-7th in Philadelphia this year with at least a dozen teams from the Mid-Atlantic region coming in. Bunch of vendors, two days of baseball...let me know if anyone wants more information. You can check out our regular season schedule on our website.
