Springfield Throwback baseball

Last year, a group of neighbors from Springfield successfully put together a turn of the century baseball game. The players donned vintage looking uniforms, and used balls, gloves, and bats modeled after the dead ball-era style equipment.

The people who put together Springfield Throwback baseball would like to find other communities interested in competing for an inter-neighborhood series of games. Maybe even eventually putting on a Neighborhood World Series, if there is enough interest.

Those interested can email downtownparks at gmail.com for more information, or visit Springfield Heritage Throwback Baseball: East vs West to see images from one of Springfield’s games.
