History in play
The Diamond State Base Ball Club is a
vintage baseball team located in New Castle County, Delaware.
Volunteers, playing primarily by the rules adopted in 1865 by
the National Association of Base Ball Players, aim to show how
the game was intended to be played, “in the spirit of
good sportsmanship and with manners and courtesy.”
The club is based upon one of
Delaware’s first organized baseball teams, which was
formed as an amateur team in Wilmington in September 1865,
following the end of the Civil War.
Men in Green: Their numbers
were few and yet they had a major impact on the Battle of
Gettysburg.
