Who is the Real Father of Baseball?
Posted By: Dan Bretta
The commission did not investigate Graves claim that Doubleday invented baseball. They took it at face value because it held everything that Spalding was looking for, an American beginning to the game...and what better story than to have it not only American, but also invented by an American hero? We have to remember that The Mills Commission was a reaction to Chadwick's article in 1903 that the game evolved from the British game of Rounders.
