Quote : “Baseball? It's just a game - as simple as a ball and a bat. Yet, as complex as the American spirit it symbolizes. It's a sport, business - and sometimes even religion.” Ernie Harwell, 1955

The History of Baseball Originally, baseball was a sort of children’s game in England called “Rounders”.

In 1845, Alexander Cartwright wrote the first rules and regulations for baseball. He also designed the shape of the modern baseball field.

The first official recorded game was played in 1846, in New Jersey. The game quickly became very popular. Many teams and leagues formed.

Baseball spread throughout the country despite conflicts, wars, controversy, and scandal.

Baseball is truly “the American Game.”
