Great Story by Former Eagle Base Ball Player mid 1800s

Posted By: Shawn

I have been researching heavy into the early Base Ball diagram and Rules that I had picked and posted about in a past thread. I just recently found this (what I think)is a wonderful read, written by a former player of the Eagle Base Ball team from Mass. It is his recollection of the time he spent with the team. I love some of the descriptions he gives of winning the big game! Anyway, the book was published in 1895 and is called the "History of Florence, Mass". I hope others will enjoy and that this is not a "repost".
