See how baseball was played in its early days with the Spiegel Grove Squires, the vintage team at the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Library & Mu- seums.
The Squires bring to life base ball – as it was spelled back then – in the 1860s, when the sport be- came organized with stan- dard rules of play for clubs.
Members of the Spie- gel Grove Squires are volunteers. They have studied and learned the methods of play used in the 1860s, including playing bare-handed and using a bat that looks more like a broom handle. Players are called ballists, and they wear period-style uniforms and adopt the language of 19th-century base ball
