Yeah I found this interesting as well. I wonder if the game played back in 1791 was similar to the style of baseball played today (or if it was something totally different). And if it was similar, I wonder if MLB will no longer address Abner Doubleday as the founder of the game.

I wouldn't be surprised if nothing changes though.

very interesting that a law was going to be put into effect to stop baesball playing within 50 yards of those windows

lol seriously, that is pretty interesting stuff. Only the wealthy had windows back then and a law against it being played near them is pretty funny. Good find man

They had something about this in my local paper. It's interesting to find out where baseball was first played and how the game has evolved.
