Hey there, found this thread online and thought I'd add some info. I'm with the Eclipse Base Ball Club of Elkton based in Elkton, MD. We play by 1864 rules in the Mid Atlantic Vintage Base Ball Association. http://www.elktonbbc.com

To Jay Wolt, we host the Gettysburg Festival and yes its a great time, thanks for the good words about it. This year will be the 5th time we hold the event. Draw teams as far as Texas and its a ton of fun. Hope we could meet up at some point if you come again.

If I can be of any help to people looking to play in the PA, MD, NJ, NY area, I can try to send you in the right direction. The TN gents have a great program and are easily found online.

Huzzah!

When I was doing Civil War reenacting here in St. Louis, we had a team show up at an event and play a pick up game with us.

Bay Area Vintage Baseball plays by 1886 rules. I used to occasionally watch them play in Golden Gate park when I lived a few blocks from there.

Also watch games in the park occasionally, and it's really cool. Seems they were pitching from 60.5 ft though, which I'd though came in in/around 1893... Regardless, don't care much about those details, just cool to see them in the wool unis, having fun, drinking some beer and playing clean ball. I thought about trying to play, but currently am on the road too much. I did go down and swing their bats once.. And wow! Those bats truly are lumber, while today's are twigs.

Default Vintage Base Ball

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.
