Join us at the Winston Brown Recreation Center in Edwardsville for an old-fashioned game of base ball, using the official 1860 rulebook where baseball was spelled “base ball.”

And that’s not the only difference! Come for batting practice at 12:30 (kids over 10 and adults) or for the game at 1:30 p.m. when the Belleville Stags face-off against the St. Louis Brown Stockings.

MCHS will host a concession stand with the usual modern-day and 1860 baseball favorites, hotdogs, popcorn, Crackerjacks, and, of course, beer.
