In the good old summertime

What better to do on a July weekend than to watch some vintage baseball? From my email this week, courtesy of the Chesapeake and Potomac Base Ball Club:

Come see how Base Ball was played in 1864 as six of the finest 19th century Base Ball clubs from the Mid-Atlantic states gather in the nation's capital. Authentic uniforms, equipment, customs, and rules of 1864 will be represented in matches that were played before million dollar contracts, television, and gloves!

Games will be played the weekend of July 7-8 downtown at the fields at 23rd & Independence. I plan on checking out some of the games. Huzzah!

They're going to play with those old bean bag style balls?
