I wonder why I never used them on my blog.<br /><br />Hartford had a leading role in the start of professional baseball in the late 1800s. In fact, Morgan Buckley from Hartford was both President of Aetna Insurance and President of the National League. Regrettably, Hartford is the victim of being two hours from both Boston and New York, so the big leagues went to bigger markets.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323811980627840654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1740227464249118134.post-30466677868098010732014-08-07T10:35:40.458-05:002014-08-07T10:35:40.458-05:00It is a game, after all, that not only is in the b...It is a game, after all, that not only is in the big cities, but in every village, in the essence of the country's character.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1740227464249118134.post-23365402073695378962014-08-07T09:13:27.309-05:002014-08-07T09:13:27.309-05:00Your post points out that while we usually think o...Your post points out that while we usually think of Major League Baseball, there is a history of small town and rural baseball. My father grew up in rural Ohio and Detroit. He told me about the House of David baseball team, which was religious sect in Benton Harbor, Michigan, I believe. They did not believe in cutting their hair. After a player would make a great play, they would doff their cap theatrically and down would fall the long hair.
