Brief History of Baseball
by Regan Shaors
http://www.fleerbaseball.com

The beginning of baseball is usually traced to early
nineteenth century with the formation of the first baseball
clubs in 1845. Therefore, even though technically baseball
came into existence around the early 19th century, it's
probably been there a lot longer. In 1845, an Englishman
named Alexander Cartwright laid down the first list of rules
for what is now called baseball. Many of Cartwright's rules
are still applicable in baseball today.

The first baseball league was formed by a group of
amateur players in 1958, It was called the National
Association of Baseball Players. And yes, in their very
first year, the National Association of Baseball Players
began charging admission to its baseball games.It was in
1868, however, that baseball hit its stride. The Civil War
was over and the Union had carried the game of baseball to
other parts of the country where it created quite a
sensation. In 1868 the National Association of Baseball
Players had delegates from well over 100 clubs across the
country.

Baseball hit its stride in 1868. After the Civil War was
over the Union had carried the game of baseball to other
parts of the country and created quite a sensation. There
were delegates from more than a hundred clubs from across
the country in 1868 in the National Association of Baseball
Players.

The American League of Baseball came into being at the
beginning of the 20th century. The league began playing in
the year 1901. The game of baseball used a lot of
application of the strategy. This period also saw the
invention of the cork-centered baseball that went on to
change a lot of things. This baseball allowed for more home
runs resulting in the surging popularity of the baseball.


Rival leagues kept trying to break into American baseball
even as late as 1960. Of course, they all failed to leave
any significant mark, and could not challenge the supremacy
of the National and American leagues that rule the game till
date. Baseball became a game of strategy and hitting
throughout the last part of the 20th century. However,
pitching and home run hitting are the baseball benchmarks of
today. Depending on the strength of their bullpens and their
home run hitters, baseball teams are either big winners or
big losers. The one thing that is consistent is that the
cost of admission still continues to rise.
